INTERDEPENDENCE, DISEQUILIBRIUM, AND GROWTH Reflections on the Political Economy of North-South Relations at the Turn of the Century John Loxley IDRC/Macmillan 1998 ISBN 0-88936-826-0 162 pp. Disponible en français Globalization has had a profound effect on North-South relations buthas affected different regions and countries to different degrees. The extent of globalization has also been exaggerated. Only a few countries, largely in Southeast Asia, have enjoyed rapid growth based on the export of manufactures. International flows of private capital have been concentrated on a handful of countries. Poorer countries have relied heavily on official borrowing and foreign aid. Debt problems have led to widespread imposition of structural adjustment programs, with ambiguous results. This book examines four contemporary developments with potentially important implications for North-South relations:
Interdependence, Disequilibium, and Growth will appeal to academics, students, and researchers in development studies, international relations, economics, political sciences, and sustainable development studies. It will also appeal to development professionals and informed "internationalists" worldwide.
