Free Trade: Neither Free Nor About Trade - Softcover

Merrett, Christopher D.

 
9781551640440: Free Trade: Neither Free Nor About Trade

Synopsis

Voltaire once said about the Holy Roman Empire that it was "neither holy, Roman, nor an empire." In similar fashion, it can be argued that the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is neither free, about trade, nor a popularly supported agreement. "Merrett forces the rhetoric surrounding free trade into a confrontation with the facts: rising unemployment, falling wages, and the dismantling of Canada's social programs."--Florida State University
