To the GATT's director-­general Olivier Long in 1977, the art was incompatible with the spirit of his trade organ­ization. As we ­will see, rather than a world economy of ­labor, bodies, toil, and leisure, the GATT's world economy was one of price signals, rules, and, as Long declared in 1978, the "reaffirmation of the rule of law in international trade."
