Can trade in the era of globalisation be fair or just? Drawing on lessons from the slave trade and studies of the international finance institutions, these essays provide insights into how free trade policies have a profoundly negative impact on the rights of communities, environmental sustainability, and the development of democracy in Africa. Whether it is the absence of womens voices at global trade negotiations, the decimation of a countrys health system as a result of World Bank policies, or the sacrificing of community rights in the interests of multinational corporations, it is clear that free trade policies impose a profit first and people last regime on Africa.
