New Evian Group publication “Peace and Prosperity through World Trade”

The Foundation is pleased to announce the publication this month of the Evian Group book “Peace and Prosperity through World Trade”. This collection of expert essays was commissioned by the International Chamber of Commerce Research Foundation (ICCRF) and is being published by Cambridge University Press. Featuring contributions from over 50 of the world’s leading thinkers in global trade and related issues, the book was compiled under the direction of Dr Victor K. Fung, Honorary Chairman of ICC, and edited by Fabrice and Jean-Pierre Lehmann, with a foreword by Peter Sutherland, founding Director General of the WTO. The authors make a compelling case that a robust, fair, rules-based multilateral global trade system not only helps economies achieve growth, but also reduces international conflict and tension.
