Abstract

This article aims at an understanding of how the Rodada Uruguai negotiations (1986-1994) and the

pressures of developed countries effected the re-orientation of countries´ positions on development

in the multilateral ambit of trade. With this purpose in mind, we review the strategies that both

groups of countries (developing and developed) used in directing and constructing the rules of the

regime and how this process reflected an environment of coercion and assymetrical pact-making

that, by the end of the negotiations, made developing countries adopt commercial liberalization as

the only commercial strategy possible.
