Summary: Required Reading for world leaders
Comment: This exceptionally well researched book painstakingly analyses the policies and practices of Global institutions such the United Nations, WTO, World Bank & the IMF in relations to human rights. It concludes not unsurprisingly that these institutions have badly failed the international community in this respect. This outcome is not necessarily the result of concerted political direction, but a failure of imagination on the part of these institutions. It critically examines the growth and power of multinational corporations and how its interests overides the civil, economic and political rights of the peoples of the third world.
The scope of this this book is truly remarkable, ranging over politics, law, the nature of justice, economics and philosophy.
It is written in an accessible and informative manner and should be required reading for students, politicians and the general reader.
I thoroughly recommend this book.

Summary: A book about justice for the whole human family
Comment: This book is a must read for anyone concerned about justice in our globalized society and the future of our children and generations to come. It is stunning in its breath dealing with the crisis facing human rights around the world, the democratic deficits at the international financial institutions, the power of multinationals that rival nations and the need to integrate the environment and labour standards into the world trade regime. It is also a book about hope if the right reforms to the institutions of global governance take place and if the resources are found to integrate justice into the global economy.
