Abstract

Free Trade Is War
Klein, Naomi | September 29, 2003 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the convergence of several globalization activist organizations in Cancún, Mexico in September 2003 to declare that the economic model advanced by the World Trade Organization is a form of war. Privatization and deregulation kill by pushing up prices and making small farms unsustainable. Global antiwar protests grew out of the networks built by years of globalization activism, from Indymedia to the World Social Forum.
