Description

This report demonstrates how the Bush/Cheney administration, international financial institutions like the World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank, and multilateral free trade agreements like the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) and the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), together promote a corporate driven, anti-environment energy agenda in Latin America and elsewhere.
