Fair Trade’ with Africa
The origin of Africa's current failure to benefit from the expansion of world trade lies in the colonial division of labour, the consequences of which persist in economic structures far more than in other continents. The consequent economic distortions emphasising export of primary products have been preserved by external forces and are now being reinforced by free markets. The ‘fair trade’ concept seeks to ensure a measure of surplus for some pr…
Slobodan Milosevic and How the US Used Al Qaeda in the Balkans
In this commentary Michael Barratt Brown challenges the widely held view that the break-up of Former Yugoslavia was the result of the late Slobodan Milosevic's aim to create a Greater Serbia by “ethnic cleansing” of the other peoples especially in Bosnia and Kosovo.

Inventing socialism
Consequently, it (capitalist society) finds itself in times of stress with masses of unemployed on its hands, whom it considers not as persons having certain needs which must be supplied, but as unwanted material for which there is no present use. Its fundamental value principle, whatever it may be, is certainly not the absolute value of the individual person, but a principle incompatible with this. Such a society may profess to believe in the ul…
In & against the market
The AFPRC followed the practice of the previous regime in suspending or sacking chiefs and headmen they disapproved of.The term 'opinion leader' has recently acquired a very specific meaning in political parlance in The Gambia.As used, especially in the government media, it refers to anybody who issues statements supportive of Jammeh.In this linguistic context an 'opinion leader' might be a chief or village headman but he or she might equally be …
