Globaphiles v Globaphobes
< p >
Last Sunday, more than 50,000 people demonstrated in the streets of Nontes, the capital of Newland, against economic globalisation, free trade and the Government’s plan to join the World Trade Organisation (WTO). The Republic of Newland is a developing, lower middle income country, with a population of 30 million people. It has a booming, export-oriented toy manufacturing industry and an up-and-coming steel industry. Many of its other industries, however, are unable to compete with foreign goods or services.

< p >
The demonstration was organised by the Newland Coalition for a Better World (NCBW), representing Newland’s labour unions and its main environmental, consumer and human rights organisations. When small groups of radicals, led by a moustached farmer, attacked and destroyed a McJohn’s restaurant along the route, the police intervened to disperse the demonstrators with teargas. Three hours of violent clashes between the police and a group of about 500 young demonstrators ensued, leaving several people wounded.
