Recenzje

In this highly original book, Fairbrother presents North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) as a case study in really-existing globalization. Policy actors from all three partner-nations reflect on events and motivations in their own words, describing an agreement bearing little resemblance to the idealized 'free trade' described in macroeconomics textbooks. As we reflect back on the allegedly golden years of globalization, Fairbrother's work will give us a great deal to think about.
