Proposals are coercive when
somebody is made worse off relative to a normative baseline. In this paper, I
shall analyze Thomas Pogges suggestion that, insofar as the normative baseline
of basic human rights is violated, trade agreements among developed and
developing countries usually involve coercion. I will argue that his argument,
as presented, is not compelling enough to make the case for coercion. I
propose, instead, that we should understand trade agreements as cases of
mutually advantageous exploitation.
