South nations and publics are denied meaningful participation in WTO, IMF, World Bank decisions

Evidence

In all of these cases, in addition, justice includes a dimension of participation on environmental and other issues—participation by those at the short end of distributional inequity and participation by those suffering the injustice of the lack of cultural recognition. For example, by far the most oft-discussed critique of the WTO, IMF, and World Bank beyond the issue of inequity is that of the lack of meaningful participation offered to the public, various opponents, or even the nations of the South, in both the everyday practices of the organizations and their various attempts at meetings and negotiations. — David Schlosberg, Defining Environmental Justice, 310
