• Multilateralism Is Better for Business

The aftermath of the World Trade Organization's Ministerial meeting in Hong Kong, China is a good time to remind everyone of why multilateral trade agreements serve the interests of today's global production system in a way that the alternative -- a fragmented system of bilateral agreements -- does not. Products are no longer made in one factory and under one roof. Increasingly, production is dispersed across different factories in different countries -- it is becoming globalized. Dispersed manufacturing is the way of the future and the multilateral system is vital for its efficiency because firms have only to understand one set of defined rules, universally applied. With dispersed manufacturing, developed countries can focus on what they do best: design, branding, understanding consume...

• An Interview with Ilaria Venturini Fendi Carmina Campus

In an interview, Ilaria Venturini Fendi, founder of Carmina Campus, talked about her biggest challenges, her views on ethical fashion and social engagement. Venturini Fendi said the first challenge is in supplying the group of women with the opportunity to receive on-the-job training in production, so they can become self-sufficient. For her, ethical means what is good to do. The word has become a sort of buzzword lately, but in her opinion it deserves greater attention. She thinks that the project allows Carmina Campus to be come part of a new economic and productive system that values goods based on responsible design, not only for production purposes but also for the promotion of fair behavior by designers and consumers.

• What Competition has Done for Europe*

Nicolas Sarkozy, President of France, managed to erase "free and undistorted competition" from the proposed new EU Treaty as a main aim of the European Union. Afterwards, he asked rhetorically what competition has done for Europe. This article is an attempt to reply to that very important question. The view of competition and its effects among decision-makers is likely to affect numerous policy outcomes. Throughout history, there has been a struggle between freedom and control in Europe. Competition is the result of economic freedom and the absence of interventions in the economy by the state. And it has done very much indeed for Europe. It may be the single most important reason why the average income in Western Europe is 14 times higher today than in 1820. If anything, Europe needs mo...
