Edited by Ulrich Volz, Senior Lecturer in Economics, SOAS, University of London, UK and Senior Research Fellow, German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE)<i>’If you are interested in finding out more about regionalism's potential to reshape globalization and global governance, turn to this excellent and thoroughly researched volume. While the authors focus on international trade and finance, their stimulating analyses are of much broader relevance. They point to an emerging new phase of globalization made more open and participatory - 'flatter' - by enhanced regionalism.’</i><br />- Inge Kaul, Hertie School of Governance, Germany<p></p>
<i>’It is the distinctive contribution of this book to explore the complex relationship between the reality of regionalisation and the objective of achieving global economic cooperation and integration.’</i><br /> - Michele Fratianni, University of Ancona, Italy <p></p>
<i>’This book explores a central issue of the world economy today: the role of regional integration for economic development and global governance. The importance of this issue comes from the fact that the globalisation process that we have been experiencing in recent decades is also a process of open regionalism. [. . .] To what extent does this process contribute to development? The reader will find many interesting answers to this question in the book, [which] is an outstanding contribution to this debate. I welcome its publication and look forward to its influence on global debates on the relations between regional integration, development and global governance.’</i>
