Abstract
The following comments concentrate on the areas of disagreement in the positions of Joost Pauwelyn on the one side and Gabrielle Marceau and Anastasios Tomazos on the other. As Joost Pauwelyn and Gabrielle Marceau are two of the main proponents in the debate on the relationship between international law and the WTO system, in dealing with their views one has to address several of the core issues raised in this discussion so far. In order to better understand these issues and the respective positions presented, it appears appropriate to take some of their earlier writings into perspective.
