DE LA REZA, Germán A.. Art. XXIV of the GATT/WTO: the Relationship between Regionalism and Multilateralism. Prob. Des [online]. 2015, vol.46, n.181, pp.185-204. ISSN 0301-7036.

This work studies the interaction between regionalism and multilateralism by examining Art. XXIV of the GATT/WTO and, more generally the degree to which regional dynamics and global forces are connected, taking into account organizational factors. The results of the research suggest that multilateralism and regionalism respond to relatively autonomous systemic interests, where one is a secondary alternative to the benefits and needs of the other.
