Abstract
Is the current model for economic globalization good for the poor or the environment? Are there alternatives? Amid rising worldwide protests that corporate elites wield too much influence over global economic governance, this selection addresses Mexico’s experience under the North American Free Trade Agreement to offer insights into both questions. With a focus on labor, agricultural and environmental issues, this selection tells globalization’s untold stories.
