Book Launch: Why Politicians Lie About Trade by Dmitry Grozoubinski
Join us for an afternoon with author and former trade negotiator, Dmitry Grozoubinski, as he unveils the secrets behind the $32 trillion-a-year global trade machine in his eye-opening new book, "Why Politicians Lie About Trade."
Description
About the Book:
WHY POLITICIANS LIE ABOUT TRADE reveals how international trade really works and the compromises and deals nations must make to take part in the greatest commercial show on earth.
With clear writing and lively case studies, a former trade negotiator takes readers on an often humorous tour of the shadowy workings of the agreements, tariffs, taxes and disputes that characterise this $32 trillion-a-year machine.
Dmitry Grozoubinski reveals the underlying political and geographical forces that shape the impact of trade on topics as diverse and important as food, jobs, gender, conflict and climate change. And he reveals what politicians cover up about the system – and why it matters.
A companion to evergreen titles such as Freakonomics and How to Lie With Statistics, WHY POLITICIANS LIE ABOUT TRADE illuminates a little-understood network that runs our world.
