Accounting for the Global Economy
The book describes the construction method for a global accounting framework, referred to as the world accounting matrix (WAM). It shows how a WAM can be used for the analysis of trade and finance in a global context and demonstrates how it can contribute to the solution of the large statistical problems in national and global macroeconomic data.
Aid and Macroeconomic Performance
This book presents an accounting framework to critically review existing studies of aid's macroeconomic effects and as a basis for four country studies on Guinea-Bissau, Nicaragua, Tanzania and Zambia. This framework focuses on the impact of different types of aid on the level and composition of key macroeconomic aggregates such as imports, investment and government expenditure. The importance of the relationship between aid and policy reform is also stressed. The case studies find that aid has had a generally positive contribution, though recommendations to further improve aid impact are also given.
Sustainable Development
First published in 1991. The European Association of Development Research and Training Institutes (EADI) organised its 6th General Conference in Oslo, 27-30 June 1990. The general theme was ‘New Challenges for European Development Research’, with particular reference to the changes taking place in Europe, East and West, and to sustainable development. More than 200 papers were presented - in the plenary sessions, in two parallel, special sessions on the two main themes, and in the sessions of 23 working groups and five ad hoc panels. It is from this harvest that the editors of the previous and the present issues of the EJDR have selected contributions. No.2 (1990) focused on the changes in Europe and their effects. The present issue focuses on the other main theme of the conference, sustainable development.
South-South Globalization
Two prominent features of the current global economy are the world-wide recession brought about by the recent financial crisis, and the emergence of major economic powers from within the developing world such as Brazil, China and India. The former represents the failure of global regulatory policies and macroeconomic imbalances between surplus and deficit countries; the latter is symptomatic of a partial shift in economic power towards developing nations, who are often collectively labelled the global South. The macroeconomic imbalances are unsustainable in the longer run as they mean greater absorption relative to income in deficit nations; they require corrective action and international p...
