- Places current trade controversies in historical perspective.
- Links abstract trade theory to actual practice, which gives students the opportunity to see trade theory in action and see how policy departs from theoretical principles. Students explore unresolved theoretical and empirical controversies (e.g. does trade suppress wages in U.S.?).
- Absence of technical exposition makes the content accessible and relevant to a broad audience (students of international politics, foreign policy, etc.).
- Up-to-date coverage includes Seattle debacle, Doha trade round (on-going), the "new" issue of fair labor standards in developing countries, Bush's conflicted trade actions.
- Includes chapters on trade/environment and U.S. export.
