The IMF-World Bank Annual meetings bring together people from around the world to discuss issues that affect the global economy. This year's meetings were held in Bali, Indonesia, and one issue at the top of the agenda was the rising backlash to globalization by workers who feel they're losing jobs to trade and immigration. Roberto Azevêdo, Director General of the World Trade Organization dispels those claims, and in this podcast, the IMF's Camilla Andersen asks Azevêdo why he thinks international trade has been under fire of late.
