Publisher's Synopsis
Martin Khor offers a trenchant and wide-ranging overview of the current world trading system. He puts forward proposals for improving every major aspect of it and the WTO Agreements that enshrine its rules. Demanding that the developed countries live up to their own trade commitments, he outlines the overall principles informing a world trade system that genuinely fosters human development throughout the world. Here is a book whose concrete and detailed proposals can act as a focal point around which both developing countries and NGOs can organise their efforts during the forthcoming new trade round. The aim must be to bring about fundamental changes in the world trade system.
