Sectoral Reciprocity
Sectoral Reciprocity and the GATT Policy Negotiations
In relation to the GATT Policy Negotiations, Christopher Mark (1993) provided the following explanation and/or definition of Sectoral Reciprocity: The objective of equalizing levels of protection applying to international trade in a particular class of products through trade negotiations conducted on a sector-by-sector basis. Sectoral reciprocity contrasts with the customary, across-the- board approach to negotiations aimed at achieving mutually beneficial agreements comprising concessions in one sector exchanged for gains in another.
