The world for sale by Javier Blas & Jack Farchy is a comprehensive and engaging exploration of the global commodity trade.
The book explores the roots of the commodity trade in colonialism and slavery and follows its evolution into a sophisticated network of markets and financial instruments. According to Blas & Farchy, the dynamics of commodity trade have undergone a fundamental shift due to the rise of China and other emerging economies. This shift has resulted in higher volatility and competition in the industry. The writers explore the various goods that influence the worldwide economy, such as oil, gold, copper, and soybeans, among other examples.
