Corporate versus National Interest in US Trade Policy : Chiquita and Caribbean Bananas Hardback

Description

This book provides a history of the WTO US-EU banana dispute through the lens of a major actor: the US-owned multinational firm, Chiquita Brands International.

It documents and explains how Chiquita succeeded in having the Clinton administration pursue a trade policy of forcing the European Union to dismantle its preferential banana import regime for exports from the small English-speaking Caribbean (ESC) countries.

The export of bananas was critically important to the social stability and economic viability of these countries and that was in the national security interest of the United States.

The experience indicates that succeeding in this goal was detrimental to U.S. national security interest in the Caribbean.
