Description  
The first authoritative account of the fashioning of the Free Trade Agreement between Australia and the USA reveals how the Australian government has deliberately and surreptitiously sacrificed Australia's interest in the deluded pursuit of a "special relationship" with the superpower.

How To Kill A Country demonstrates how the Free Trade Agreement, as negotiated, will seriously damage Australia's institutions, interests and identity. Three of Australia's leading policy analysts have investigated the fine print of Australia's Free Trade Agreement with the US. What they found is that the lopsidedness of the deal is just the beginning of the story. Most harmful is the sacrifice of our national autonomy and control over key institutions that underpin our prosperity.
