``As globalization intensifies and the world changes at a rapid pace, emerging economies are acquiring growing economic and political importance. In this context, new challenges require new forms of global economic governance and deeper cooperation. At the 2007 G8 Summit in Heiligendamm, G8 leaders and the leaders of China, Brazil, India, Mexico, and South Africa agreed to start a political dialogue on selected global economic issues. This book explores the first steps of the new dialogue process and its future potential. It breaks new ground and could assist policy-makers in drawing the map for enhanced international cooperation.'' -- Ulrich Benterbusch, Director, Heiligendamm Process Support Unit, Organisation forEconomic Cooperation and Development -- 200809
