Code of Conduct and the GATT Policy Negotiations
In relation to the GATT Policy Negotiations, Christopher Mark (1993) provided the following explanation and/or definition of Code of Conduct: An international agreement establishing standards of behavior –by countries, corporations, or individuals –deemed desirable by the international community. Such codes are essentially normative statements of principle and, unlike ” treaties or commercial agreements, have no binding force. Not to be confused with GAIT Codes.
Code of Conduct in Election Law
Set of rules aside from the body of legal texts that govern the election process (constitution, laws, etc.). These are primarily ethical in nature and are intended to regulate the conduct of election participants and their dealings with one another. The code of conduct applies to political parties, observers, media or election authority officials. Codes of conduct may be compulsary and enforced by the Election Management Body (EMB). Other stakeholders such as political parties, candidates or media may also voluntarily agree on a code of conduct that governs their involvement in the electoral process.
