Organización Mundial del Comercio, arbitraje, solución de diferencias, Órgano de ApelaciónResumen
En diciembre del año 2019 expiró el periodo de trabajo de dos miembros del Órgano de Apelación, el que, de esta forma, se convirtió en una institución inoperativa. En este contexto, un conjunto de Miembros de la OMC decidió negociar un mecanismo alternativo para resolver sus diferencias de manera definitiva: «El Arreglo Interino Multipartes de Arbitraje». Este artículo tiene por finalidad analizar el funcionamiento de este instrumento, evidenciar algunos asuntos no resueltos y explicar que la reforma del sistema de solución de diferencias de la OMC es parte de un problema mayor vinculado a la necesidad de reformar esta misma organización internacional.
