Originally published in 2005, this book focuses on the role of
corporations within the trading system, and the complex
relationships between corporations, nation states and international
organisations. The actions and motives that drive corporations are
considered as well as the structure of the international trading
system. Remedial devices such as Codes of Conduct and Human Rights
instruments are assessed for effectiveness. The book seeks reasons
for what is a growing understanding that international trading
regimes are not meeting objectives found in many international
agreements, including both the international trade agreements
themselves (WTO, GATT, TRIPS etc.) and human rights instruments. In
particular, it is clear that the prevalence and severity of poverty
is not being adequately addressed. This work sets out to
investigate the role played by companies in this failure in the
globalisation of trade to realise its aims, in particular the
failure to achieve the minimum of basic rights, the right to food.
