Abstract

Our claim is that the 20th century system accords with the constitutional structure of the victors of war, and that they therefore devised it accordingly, but that comparative advantage is not a timeless truth. Our claim that the key to understanding the global trading order, and its relationship to the strategic interests of its actors, lies in uncovering the relationship between trade and the State.
