Cato Unbound » Blog Archive » We All Own Stolen Goods and How Defending Property Rights Can Help the Worlds Most Oppressed People http://www.cato-unbound.org/2008/05/12/leif-w... Wenar proposes a very interesting trust-and-tariff mechanism to combat rights violations. I normally root for free trade; NAFTA all the way. From the property rights stance, however, things may be a little bit different. Further, trade going on in the developing world often isn't truly 'free': the U.S. subsidizes large amounts of food production, to the devastation of developing countries whose farmers can't compete. The end point being that there may be policy measures that can make a difference, a positive difference, in the world. I think this is good food for thought, and perhaps even action.
One of the great things about Cato Unbound are the response articles and dialogue between these people - it'll be interesting to watch and see what develops.
