About the Book

The purpose of this book is to provide an introduction to the United Nations Draft International Code of Conduct on the Transfer of Technology (TOT-Code). This introductory approach does not, of necessity, offer complete coverage of all legal aspects of the TOT-Code. As the TOT-Code is not yet in force, a commentary on all its provisions is not, at this moment, feasible. On the other hand, any presentation of the TOT-Code requires a discussion of questions underlying the legal and economical philosophy of Third World development. This is done with regard to the fact that the TOT-Code is a paradigm of the New International Economic Order, one of the main policy objectives of the United Nations Organization. One result of this discussion will be the qualification of antitrust, properly defined, as an instrument of economic steering in international affairs. Another result will be the call for respect for the subjective right as an indispensable instrument of international economic development.
