I have tried to analyze what was wrong with global trade.

See http://www.jordals.dk/politik/globalli.htm

I should very much like to have Your comments/corrections/suggestions.

The headlines are:

 

Global trade is actually quite o.k.

There are problems though:

  1. The need of an efficient state is overlooked
  2. There are - as it works now - serious, damaging limitations to free trade
  3. There are goods/services which are not suited to free trade
  4. Free capital movement - aside from what is needed for trade - is a threat against economical stability - which is also needed for global trade.
  5. The free market does not solve all problems.
  6. Liberalization of global trade must be separated from US imperialist demands.
