Book Talk | Why Politicians Lie About Trade
[link removed]

Over the last decade, trade has become a key driver of both politics and public policy in the developed world. And yet most voters (and many politicians) remain unaware of how trade policies are negotiated, formulated, and adjudicated at both the national and global level. In his humorous new book, experienced trade practitioner Dmitry Grozoubinski illuminates the process, explains the building blocks of the global trading system, and discusses how trade policy affects two key issues – development and climate change.
