Misadventures of the Most Favored Nations: Clashing Egos, Inflated Ambitions, and the Great Shambles of the World Trade System Hardcover – Bargain Price, September 22, 2009

by Paul Blustein (Author)
4.2 out of 5 stars 21 ratings
As a linchpin of global capitalism, the World Trade Organization is both revered and reviled. In this book, financial journalist Paul Blustein tells the surprisingly entertaining and compelling story of how the WTO is sliding into dysfunctionality—which poses a new and grave menace to globalization itself.

Misadventures of the Most Favored Nations recounts, in vivid detail, how the highstakes negotiations went awry.
