Abstract

[In the era of regionalism, although the sustainable development-oriented provisions provided in RTAs are seen as “legal inflation”, RTAs are still regarded as a fresh impetus for incorporating sustainable development into the international trading system. As a WTO member, China has performed well, and the reconciliation of its legislation embodies the balance of sustainable development preservation and trade liberalization. As a leading Asian “hub” of regional trade integration, China has also paid much attention to adopting a sustainable development approach in trade liberalization in its FTAs and BITs. However, China faces some challenges in new trends of sustainable development preservation in certain megaregional trading arrangements.]
