Global Trade And Financial Governance Together

摘要

This paper addresses the unnecessary and damaging separation of global trade and financial governance. The International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization are distinct, with the meetings of the Group of Seven industrial countries (G8 including Russia on political matters) providing the only opportunity to forge a more coherent policy involving trade and financial issues. This author discusses how to build a more broadly representative international structure to deal coherently with the concerns of many nations, not just the wealthier ones.
