The future of G8    

Since 1975 leaders of the major industrial democracies have been meeting to discuss the major economic and industrial issues facing the world. The initial members of the group were France, the United States, Britain, Germany, Japan and Italy. Canada joined in 1976 and Russia, the newest member, joined in 1998. Who will the next members be?

Read an article which speculates on possible membership of the Group in the near future and listen to an interview with a Brazilian anti-global movement advocate, who talks about the problems his country faces despite predictions for a more affluent future.
