Challenging Economic Colonialism in Africa
March 3, 1999
Behind the scenes, Clinton administration officials have been pushing members of congress to support a far-reaching trade bill known as the Africa Growth and Opportunity Act. A key component of President Clinton's trade agenda, this legislation would provide greater access for multinational corporations to labor and natural resources on the African continent. On this program we take a look at U.S. trade policy and Africa.
