Abstract

Afghanistan is the 36th Least Developed Country (LDC) member of the World Trade Organization (WTO). It is a land locked country yet deliberately situated at the heart of Silk Road which even today can fill in as the center point of trade and transit of Central Asia and South Asia. It is accepted that sustainable economic development through drawing in significant investment and trade cannot be accomplished without more extensive integration into the world economy. Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS) unequivocally perceives the role of trade for economic development culminating Afghanistan's reconciliation into the world economy as one of the key advancement objectives for which membership to WTO is a fundamental step (ANDS, 2008). Economic growth and reduction in poverty is the main goal of ANDS which place more prominent accentuation on a free market and private sector-led economy. This dissertation highlights on the role of WTO in the guise of TRIPS Agreement in Afghanistan.
