Trading Freedom is about how free trade affects our lives, our work, and our environment. It focuses on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and how the continental free trade agenda affects workers, the environment, agriculture, human rights, and immigration. In today's economy of global factories and world cars, free tread is the conventional prescription to promote economic growth and enhance competitiveness. But the rhetoric disguises the reality. Free trade threatens to cede the economic destiny of our communities to corporate boardrooms and accelerate environmental destruction throughout North America. In Trading Freedom over the thirty contributors from Canada, Mexico, and the US challenge the false promises of free trade in the Americas, outlines an ambitious alternative vision, and presents concrete strategies to build an integrated North America based on the principles of ecological sustainability, equity, social justice, and democracy. -- Midwest Book Review
