Trade determines what you can buy and where you can work. It can affect hormone levels in a supermarket chicken, the pictures printed on cigarette packages, and minimum wage laws around the world. Trade is one of the most complex issues we face today in our globalized economy. Trade disputes, deficits, tariffs and the institutions that deal with it on an international level are all dependent on foreign policy.
