Edited by Habib Zafarullah, Adjunct Faculty, Division of Sociology, University of New England, Australia and Ahmed Shafiqul Huque, Professor of Political Science, McMaster University, Canada<i>‘This book provides a detailed, expert forensic analysis of policymaking and governance within global development, bringing together an academic and practice perspective to show how development governance and policymaking can be improved and strengthened. This collection captures and explores the growing complexity and polycentric nature of global development policy, and the new challenges (including climate emergency, prolonged financial crisis, and the impact of global pandemic) such policy is required to respond to and engage with. Together, the contributions make a powerful case for embedding policymaking and analysis within specific contexts (thinking global, acting local), within accurate and up-to-date quantitative and qualitative data, and within a conscious critical thinking approach. For anyone seeking to understand how and where global development policy is constructed, how this has shifted over the first two decades of the twenty-first century as new issues and challenges have emerged, and how these processes have impacted in (and been shaped by) different regional contexts, this is an essential addition to the development thinker and practitioner’s library.’</i>
