if you still believe in the myth of free trade

Check out the latest issue of Pambazuka News, which has a special focus this week on trade and justice.

It asks:

If free trade is the answer, why is health care a luxury
for millions in Kenya? Why does the oil trade wreak havoc in the
Niger Delta? How is it that informal traders have virtually no
rights? Why are local communities excluded from development projects
driven by multi-national companies? Why is it that cotton farmers in
West Africa suffer because of a grossly unfair subsidy racket?
