Trade, Investment and Environment

"What policies are needed in a globalized economy if environmental protection is to be secured? How can discussions on the relationship between trade, environment and investment move forward to offer genuinely 'win - win' solutions? Do transnational corporations help or hinder environmental protection? What does this mean for any multilateral investment framework? Is there a need for a new global environmental organization? An international group of expert authors from both North and South explores these key questions and makes recommendations for action."--BOOK JACKET.
