The world economy can no longer safely run on the basis of existing rules and institutions. In the first section of the paper the author deals with various aspects the regulation theory and public goods and then stresses the role of the World Trade Organization. The systemic nature of public goods requires very different handling than other objects of international cooperation. Multilateral trade system is in itself an international public good. WTO is the primary international body to help promote free trade, by drawing up the new rules of international trade.
