這個多邊貿(mào)易機(jī)構(gòu)承認(rèn)成員國政府除自由貿(mào)易之外還具有制定國內(nèi)政策的權(quán)利。

The multilateral trading system recognizes that governments have legitimate aims other than free trades.

這些措施的代價（對于消費(fèi)者來說商品價格較高，選擇性較?。┍容^容易衡量；代價一般高于收益（更高的公司利潤和政府關(guān)稅收入）。

The costs of such measures (higher prices and less choice for consumers) are reasonably easy to quantify; they typically outweigh the benefits (fatter company profits and tariff revenues for governments).

事實(shí)上這些爭端的一些新的參與者，比如說保護(hù)消費(fèi)者權(quán)利活動者和環(huán)保團(tuán)體，不大會受經(jīng)濟(jì)因素的影響。

Indeed some of the new actors in such disputes, such as consumer-rights activists and environmental groups, may not be susceptible to economic reasoning.
