8.3 Trade and Human Rights/Labour Standards

1. The linkage's history — the social-clause debates (the Havana-ITO's origins; the WTO's resistance — the Singapore's "ILO-is-the-body" position); the bilateral revival (the labour- chapters of the FTAs — the US-model's enforceability).2. The ILO's trade faces — the core-labour standards (the freedom-of-association, the forced- labour, the child-labour, the discrimination); the forced-labour import bans (the modern instruments — the goods' exclusion at the border).3. The business-and-human-rights layer — the UNGPs' trade dimension (the buyers' duties cascading to the suppliers — the Nepali garment-and-carpet industries' compliance faces); the trade-and-migrant-labour link (the GATS mode-4-and-the-workers' rights — Nepal's remittance stake).
