Issue No : 33 December 1999 - February 2000

Issue No : 33 December 1999 - February 2000

WORLD THIEVES ORGANISATION

1999-12-01

Issue No : 32 September - November 1999

Ed Shepherd

WTO is an acronym that seems to be on everyone's lips, meaning World Trade Organisation. The Swiss headquarters has a permanent staff of over 500. Obviously such a large organisation has many facets. We will try to look at the most important aspects of the WTO to date, the effects it has on labour, and look at what it might like to achieve in the upcoming round of negotiations.
