Protectionism, Trade Deals...and Greed
The US trade representative, the German Finance Minister, a former mayor of London, the Enron whistle-blower and a hedge fund manager. All with their views on trade, protectionism, Keynes and greed.
This week's programme rolls out the stars - some of the world's economic heavyweights. The US Trade representative Ron Kirk tells us about the growth in protectionism and his hopes for the Doha round of trade talks. Lesley Curwen gets an insight into Germany's economy from that country's Finance Minister, Peer Steinbr眉ck. London's former mayor, the Enron whistle-blower and a hedge fund manager all talk about greed. And getting round the blocks on Internet sites in places like Iran, China and Burma. We talk to a man who's set up a company to beat the censors - can he find a way round the walls?
