Port tour “Of treasure chests and pepper sacks” - The port of Hamburg in unequal world trade. Where does our coffee come from, where is the world's largest warehouse for oriental carpets located and why does desperately poor Liberia have one of the largest trading fleets? A journey behind the backdrop of brick walls and container gantry cranes. It's about coffee and cocoa, soybeans and bananas, jeans and armaments.

The tour illustrates the background to world trade with Africa, Asia and Latin America. It explains why coffee and cocoa have become so cheap, why scrap metal is an export hit and who makes money from the extremely unequal trade between North and South.
|
|
|
|
During the tour, we come across various topics, e.g. coffee, carpets, rust buckets for Africa, bananas, flags of convenience, refugees and scrap metal.
