Globalize This!: The Battle Against the World Trade Organization

In June 2000, Common Courage Press will publish Globalize This!: The Battle Against The World Trade Organization, a collection of essays that analyze demonstrations and deliberations in Seattle and beyond. In stark contrast to the media’s partial and distorted portrayal of the WTO, World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF), editors Kevin Danaher and Roger Burbach have compiled articles that reveal how these institutions enforce policies that are destructive to human rights and the environment. In Globalize This!, some of the WTO opposition movement’s brightest activists show how these institutions, by pushing for increased globalization, threaten diversity, labor rights, the environment, and democracy itself.
