THE DERAILER'S GUIDE TO THE WTO PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 24 November 2005
Derailersguidefinal.jpgTHE DERAILER'S GUIDE TO THE WTO provides basic information about WTO agreements, what is on the negotiating table for Hong Kong and the remainder  of the Doha Round (which will likely continue through 2006), and the main actors in these negotiations. It also offers ideas about how all those committed to social and economic justice can stalemate, or derail, this latest liberalization offensive through the WTO parading under the guise of "development".
Time is short and the issues are urgent and many. If we want to protect our commons, and our rights and capacities to shape development to meet the priorities of our communities and societies, it is imperative that we prevent a new trade deal from being reached in the Hong Kong Ministerial Conference and subsequent negotiations. That is, we need to DERAIL THE WTO!

We hope that you will find this DERAILER'S GUIDE TO THE WTO, which accompanies the video "WTO: Why is it really bad for you", useful in planning your strategies, actions and mobilizations towards this goal.
