Must-Read Piece on the WTO

By Lori Wallach

Farah Stockman has done a great service in writing about the World Trade Organization (WTO) in Thursday’s New York Times in a way that is compelling and accessible. The siloed, practically religiously devoted defenders of the WTO (the Knights Templar WTO) are in a tizzy that the secrets of the palace are being revealed, but the comments section on the New York Times website shows how eager most people are to understand how this organization has failed them and what would do better.

The op-ed merits a read and share to get as many eyes on it as possible, and the comments are some of the most informative and interesting of any piece I’ve seen.
