".......The G8 (the United States, England, France, Germany, Japan,
Italy, Russia, the European Union, and Canada) represents the major
political driver of contemporary globalization. It is also the most
powerful political force behind the multilateral institutions that are
shaping global economic practice and governance.  The aid, trade, and
investment policies and practices of G8 member nations largely shape the
development possibilities of poorer countries around the world. ....."
