相比传统货物和服务贸易,数字贸易及其争端解决具有明显不同的性质与特征。WTO争端解决机制因规则滞后和适用性不足而作用受限,区域贸易协定虽尝试构建新规则,但缺乏协调性和强制力,难以形成统一框架。当前,数字贸易争端陷入“规则真空”与“机制失灵”的双重困境,如何构建高效、公平且具有普遍约束力的数字贸易争端解决机制,成为国际社会亟待解决的问题。基于数字贸易的特殊性,设计具有差异性的争端解决程序具有必要性,这一机制既要适当体现数字纪律的规则约束性,也应兼顾数字经济规则发展的适应性与灵活性。在数字贸易领域实体规则尚未统一的情况下,采取争端解决程序法先行的路径,具有一定可行性和必要性。WTO多边机制与RTA多元化争端解决机制各具利弊,多元化是目前现状,多边化是未来方向。
Abstract:Compared with traditional trade in goods and services, digital trade and its dispute resolution exhibit distinctive characteristics. The effectiveness of the WTO dispute settlement mechanism is limited by outdated rules and partial applicability. Although regional trade agreements(RTAs) endeavor to establish new rule sets, they suffer from insufficient coordination and enforcement, hindering the emergence of a unified framework. At present, digital trade disputes are ensnared in a dual dilemma of “rule vacuum” and “mechanism failure”. Developing an efficient, fair, and universally binding mechanism for resolving digital trade disputes has thus become an urgent challenge for the international community. Given the particularities of digital trade, there is a need to design differentiated dispute resolution procedures. Such a mechanism should both reflect the regulatory constraints of digital disciplines and accommodate the adaptability and flexibility of the development of digital economy rules. In the absence of a globally unified set of substantial rules for digital trade, it is feasible and necessary to prioritize the development of dispute settlement procedures. The WTO multilateral mechanism and the diversified dispute settlement mechanisms of RTAs have their respective advantages and drawbacks. Diversification currently dominates, but multilateralism remains the envisaged future direction.
