Trade and Development in a Globalized World is a authoritative and succinct investigation of developing countries and the problems they encounter when implementing export for growth strategies during the new protectionist era. The insightful analysis of key Thai government and private industry actors further highlights the asymmetrical relationship with the U.S. and the specific problems that developing countries face in combating unfair trade regulations. This is a significant contribution to the literature on unfair trade practices and, generally speaking, international development.--Bret Billet
