Established in 1995, the World Trade Organisation (WTO) is one of the most powerful
institutions in the world. It oversees the global trade in goods and services and its primary aim
is to serve the private sector rather than governments. This view of the world deletes important
elements such as the environment, the hundreds of millions of poor people who produce for
themselves (not for markets) as well as many other social and human rights issues. The WTO
focuses on trade in goods, intellectual property, investment, services, telecommunications and
financial services (banking). When the WTO was set up, the majority of developing countries
were not at the table and were barely consulted. As a result, the WTO essentially protects
multinational corporations based in the North and acts as a tool of rich and powerful countries ‐
notably the U.S., the EU, Japan and Canada.
