"This book contains essays by leading citizen-oriented trade experts. They dissect the ideological roots of the free trade mantra, discuss the trade negotiations themselves and, most vividly and most importantly, detail the devastating effect that such trade governance has had - and the much more severe effect it will have if the Uruguay Round expansion of GATT and NAFTA are enacted - on real people and real communities around the world. All of humanity has a shared interest in opposing trade agreements that threaten to exacerbate rather than eliminate the great global threats to our human well-being - reckless exploitation of people and environments." -- From the back cover, quoted from Ralph Nader.
