This Handbook does so cogently and comprehensively. Brilliant contributions, from extraordinary scholars.’</i>
- Jane Grugel, University of York, UK,
<i>‘Development is as much a political outcome as an economic one. This remarkable Handbook, edited and written by the leading experts from developing countries themselves, is the essential pairing for any development economics course and should be on the shelf of every expert.’</i>
- Kevin Gallagher, Boston University, US,
Split across four thematic parts, this thought-provoking Handbook explores the concept and politics of development, development and contested globalization, the politics of development agendas and global actors in the politics of development. Chapters examine the politics of: developmental regionalism, crime, law and development in historical perspective, international monetary relations, food, global health, the global gender agenda, the sustainable development goals, development in the WTO, and private foundations.
Engaging and accessible, the Handbook on the Politics of International Development will be a key resource for students and scholars of international politics and relations, public policy, geopolitics and development studies.
