Beskrivning

In the late 20th century, structural adjustment policies became the West's received wisdom as a solution to the economic problems of the South. Based on detailed empirical research, the contributors to this volume take a more heterodox and even critical approach. Indeed, many of the issues raised here are now being assimilated into a new "Post Washington Consensus". The range of geographical coverage matched with the coherence of the approaches taken by the contributors allows comparisons to be made.
