This book offers a new perspective in studying contemporary
development. Part I explores how the ending of the cold war,
shifting relations among capitalist powers, changing patterns of
finance, globalization of trade and production, and new ideological
currents have altered development in four major third-world
regions. Part II suggests how development options were molded by
the dominant international power in each region: the United States
in Latin America, Japan in East and Southeast Asia, and Europe with
the international financial institutions in Africa. Part III
provides a conceptual framework for analyzing regional performance:
variation in economic capacity, trade opportunities, and access to
finance shaped the development chances of each region, producing
rapid growth in Asia, stagnation in Latin America, and economic
contraction in sub-Saharan Africa during the 1980s and early 1990s.
It also speculates about future trends based on varying development
models.
