摘要
贸易数字化与监管碎片化给国际贸易制度框架下的跨境数据流动治理带来了挑战:贸易数字化导致WTO框架下贸易类型的分类困难;监管碎片化阻碍跨境数据流动的国际互操作性。面对挑战,WTO应进行广泛改革,明确数据流动属于商品还是服务,并以为数字贸易和跨境数据流动建立一个安全、可预测和值得信赖的全球治理框架为目标。在此框架形成之前,"诸边贸易协定"提供了一个在不同数据保护体系和跨境数据流动监管之间架起桥梁的良好起点。
The current trend of trade digitization and regulatory fragmentation has brought great challenges to the governance of cross-border data flows in the context of international trade law.First,trade digitization leads to the classification difficulty based on existing WTO treaty provisions;second, regulatory fragmentation impedes international interoperability of cross-border data flow regulation among different systems.The WTO should undertake extensive reforms with the aim of establishing a safe,predictable and credible global governance framework for digital trade and cross-border data flows.Before a comprehensive governance framework is established,the "Plurilateral Trade Agreement"provides a good starting point to bridge the gap between different data protection systems and the regulation of cross-border data flows.
