The expansion of a liberalised trade regime has special importance for a trade-dependent small economy such as that of Australia. Yet this process within the WTO, particularly after the Cancun Ministerial meeting, has stalled. This inertia has in part been caused by tensions arising from the WTO/human rights debate. There is therefore an urgent need for cutting edge, thorough, balanced research on that topic. Furthermore, the investigation of the attitudes of Australia's neighbours to the human rights/trade debate will aid friendly relations and contribute to the promotion of global security, which is enhanced by the promotion of a just global economic system. Australia also benefits by being a world leader in this crucial debate.

自由贸易体制的扩大对澳大利亚这样依赖贸易的小型经济体具有特别重要的意义。 然而，世贸组织内部的这一进程，特别是在坎昆部长级会议之后，已经停滞。 造成这种惰性的部分原因是世贸组织/人权辩论引起的紧张局势。 因此，迫切需要对这一专题进行最前沿、彻底和平衡的研究。 此外，调查澳大利亚邻国对人权/贸易辩论的态度将有助于友好关系，并有助于促进全球安全，而促进公正的全球经济制度将加强全球安全。澳大利亚也因在这一关键辩论中成为世界领导者而受益。
