International Trade and Global Civil Society

Mehr zum Buch

The book critiques the prevailing civil society perspective that dismisses international trade, advocating for tailored trade rules that consider varying economic development levels. It emphasizes the need to transition from subsidies for uncompetitive sectors to investments that boost productivity. A significant focus is placed on empowering trade unions and women's organizations to adopt a global stance, enabling them to effectively counterbalance corporate power in the international arena.
