Il 1° gennaio 1958 nasce la Comunità economica europea, primo fondamentale passo verso l'Europa unita. Già nei primi anni '60 gli scambi commerciali fra paesi comunitari aumentano del 30% e nel periodo 1958-1970 raddoppiano percentualmente rispetto a quelli del commercio mondiale nel suo complesso. Le misure di liberalizzazione via via adottate hanno portato a una consistente espansione del commercio intracomunitario, che è giunto a toccare circa il 60% di tutti gli scambi della Comunità.

I paradisi fiscali sono paesi o aree specifiche che offrono alle persone fisiche e alle aziende straniere un carico fiscale minimo, tassi sui depositi in banca ridottissimi e un ambiente politico ed economico stabile, in grado di garantire che non vengano fornite informazioni rilevanti alle autorità fiscali straniere. Oltre a una tassazione conveniente e alla tendenza a mantenere il segreto sulle attività finanziarie dei loro clienti, i paradisi fiscali presentano spesso altri vantaggi interessanti.

In the early years of Adams Golf, entrepreneur Barney Adams labored in obscurity. He collected six patents for his golf products, manufacturing fine equipment but enjoying no sales. Everything changed for him and his company in 1996, though, when he invented the Tight Lies fairway wood. Working as a custom fitter, his customers repeatedly asked for a club they could play from "long iron" distance, from 180 to 220 yards to the green. Adams knew the technical secret was to lower the club's center of gravity.

We Sell Drugs is a study grounded in the transnational geography and political economy of the coca-leaf and coca-derived commodities market stretching from Peru and Bolivia into the United States. More than a narrow biography of one famous plant and its equally famous derivative products - Coca-Cola and cocaine - this audiobook situates these commodities within the larger landscape of drug production and consumption. Examining efforts to control the circuits through which coca traveled, Suzanna Reiss provides a geographic and legal basis for considering the historical construction of designations of legality and illegality.

The book also argues that the legal status of any given drug is largely premised on who grew, manufactured, distributed, and consumed it and not on the qualities of the drug itself. Drug control is a powerful tool for ordering international trade, national economies, and society's habits and daily lives. In a historical landscape animated by struggles over political economy, national autonomy, hegemony, and racial equality, We Sell Drugs insists on the socio-historical underpinnings of designations of legality to explore how drug control became a major weapon in asserting control of domestic and international affairs.
