Trade is the lifeblood of the global economy but few would consider it a social good. Instead our views on trade have polarized between two extremes: 'free trade' ideologues who regard trade as an end in itself and 'protectionists' who view it as a destructive force to be contained. But there is another way to trade - one with the interests of people not profit at its heart. In this visionary work Christian Felber founder of the Economy for the Common Good movement offers a dazzling new paradigm for the global trading order. Confronting the 'free trade religion' which has reigned since Adam Smith Felber champions an alternative approach in which trade serves the wider interests of society incorporating the key issues of our time: human rights climate change and the growing divide richer and poorer countries. He proposes the groundbreaking idea of an 'Ethical Trade Zone' founded on a principled approach to tariffs and trade policies and built with international cooperation on trade taxation and labour. Penetrating and passionate Christian Felber shows how this brave new economic world can be built democratically from the grassroots up and how trading for good can be made a reality.
