Using Secondary Sources to begin your Research
It is always a good idea to begin your research with secondary sources, such as books and journal articles, particularly if you are unfamiliar with the topic. In addition to providing introductory and background information, analysis, and commentary, secondary sources will help you identify relevant primary materials, such as trade agreements and dispute settlement case law.
Books, bibliographies and encyclopaedic works, handbooks etc are a great way to get broad coverage and understanding of your topic. Start with, for example:
International Trade and Economic Relations in a Nutshell by Call Number: KC 230 FOLSPublication Date: West, 6th ed, 2016
