The tensions created by including public services in international trade agreements continue to stir academic interest, whilst remaining highly controversial. Taking the European Union’s ‘second generation’ trade agreements as its focus, this presentation will examine the extent to which such agreements balance the efficacy of their core trade disciplines with space for the provision of public services by its Member States.
