This book argues that globalization and international trade has endangered people in less developed countries who lack the necessary regulations and literacy to safely handle dangerous pesticides. Dumping these harmful chemicals in other countries has had a drastically negative effect on the health of local people. This book closes the circle by looking at how developed countries then import products treated with those banned substances, further implying that the trade of harmful pesticides affects everyone.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightGlobalizationPest controlImportsWorld marketsEnvironmental impactsInternational tradePesticide poisoningPest managementTrade regulationsHealth impactsTrade policyHealthExportsCircle of poisonPesticidesCosta RicaColombiaDumpingHazardousThe PhilippinesCoffee beansInternational tradeMexicoInsecticideFarm/Enterprise Scale Field Scale GovernanceAbstractCopyright 1981 by Institute for Food and Development Policy
