Prior to that, the United States granted China permanent normal trade relations, or PNTR. This Commission was formed in that process with a mandate to monitor human rights and the development of the rule of law, or the lack of progress thereof, in China. In 1998, two years before China joined the WTO, I chaired a hearing of the Subcommittee on International Operations and Human Rights of the Foreign Affairs Committee which examined whether bringing China into the WTO would improve its human rights record. As a member of the WTO, China has experienced tremendous economic growth and integration into the global economy. But as this Commission's most recent annual report documents, China continues to massively violate the basic human rights of its own people and systematically undermines the rule of law.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Congressional-Executive Commission on Ch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1480229679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781480229679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/02\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.19d","brand":"Congressional-Executive Commission on Ch","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48622495039743,"sku":"9781480229679","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ten-years-in-the-wto-congressional-executive-commission-on-ch-9781480229679","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
