Focusing on the WTO US-EU banana dispute, the narrative centers on Chiquita Brands International and its influence on U.S. trade policy during the Clinton administration. The book explores how Chiquita lobbied for the dismantling of the EU's preferential banana import regime, which significantly impacted the small English-speaking Caribbean nations reliant on banana exports for economic stability. Ultimately, the pursuit of this policy proved detrimental to U.S. national security interests in the region, highlighting the complex interplay between corporate influence and international trade.
