Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In this volume, contributors look at how the destruction of tariff barriers on a world scale opens the weaker economies to the power of the transnational corporations, and often leads to greater impoverishment of already poor countries and peoples. They discuss strategies and ideas for the creation of an economic climate which would allow free and fair trade for everyone in the 21st century.
