In this book the author investigates the ethics of the world economic order as promoted by the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the World Bank. On the basis of evidence in the study leading to the book, the author takes the view that the WTO exists to serve the interests of the dominant group, the core, at the expense of the periphery. This cosmopolitan order raises questions of ethical nature. The book evaluates a number of possible normative principles and settles for Elisabeth Gerle's Global Ethics Model as a viable option on which ethical reflection and discussion on global trade ethics can be attempted. The author proceeds in the book with a discourse engaging Gerle's model, Christian ethics and African Communitarian Ethics (ACE). The discourse in the book culminates into a hybrid model of trade ethics within the WTO, aimed at securing balanced negotiations; while accounting for interests without compromising the imperative of 'being human together'.
