This book provides a history of the WTO US-EU banana dispute
through the lens of a major actor: the US-owned multinational firm,
Chiquita Brands International. It documents and explains how
Chiquita succeeded in having the Clinton administration pursue a
trade policy of forcing the European Union to dismantle its
preferential banana import regime for exports from the small
English-speaking Caribbean (ESC) countries. The export of bananas
was critically important to the social stability and economic
viability of these countries and that was in the national security
interest of the United States. The experience indicates that
succeeding in this goal was detrimental to U.S. national security
interest in the Caribbean.
