Read excerpt
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Sep 28 2026 (IPS) - The 1944 Bretton Woods (BW) conference accepted the US demand to use the dollar to settle international financial transactions.

International Trade Theory Not Developmental (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Read excerpt
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Aug 4 2026 (IPS) - President Trump has blamed trade liberalisation advocated by globalists for US deindustrialisation. Instead, his own weaponisation of economic policies, instruments and institutions purport to ‘make America great again’ (MAGA).
