Well, the WTO - or, more specifically the Doha round - has gone
nowhere, and the movement barely exists anymore. Has its effect
lingered for six or seven years, or was it really that the tensions
among the negotiating parties were too intense?
Speaking of which, it’s interesting that much of the problem with the
Doha round is intra-South tension. Mexico and Africa don’t much like
what Wall Street calls the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India, China),
which in this case means India & China. The antiglobo construction of
the WTO as an imperialist racket needs some revision.
