This book investigates the intersection of international trade law and gender equality, questioning how trade agreements can be structured to actively promote women's economic empowerment. Amrita Bahri, an expert in international trade law, synthesizes current legal frameworks and negotiation practices to evaluate the efficacy of existing trade policies. She argues that trade agreements are not gender-neutral and provides a structured approach for policymakers to integrate inclusive norms into future international trade cooperation.

Experts identify this work as a practical resource for trade negotiators and policymakers seeking to operationalize gender-inclusive policies. The text is noted for its clear, actionable guidance on navigating the complex intersection of international law and social equity.
