The emergence of "GATT to WTO—Gandhian Alternative to New International Economic Order" as a result of growing discontent among the Third World countries due to global inequalities has been traced through recent history till present. A candid description of how the underprivileged nations are increasingly being pushed out of global decision-making which has given rise to the new international economic order and economic blocs which aim at strengthening the nations so that they yield more influence on being united than being victimized alone. The domination of the WTO as well as the United Nations by superpowers and regimes has also been vehemently stated. This book convincingly establishes that the entire quest of NIEO would benefit a lot from viewing the basic problems and issues involved in the Gandhian perspective. If the quest for NIEO is ultimately a quest for a just and equitable world social order ensuring world peace, it has to learn a lot from Gandhian insights to fortify itself for the arduous task of achieving its goal. This book essentially exposes the ruptures in the global economy and focuses on a Gandhian alternative.
