'In the galaxy of issues that developing countries are faced with
in their international economic relations, this publication manages
to focus on some critical areas of particular concern to developing
countries. Moreover, the issues focussed on have a contemporary
relevance touching as they do on financial reform, aid and IMF
conditionality, international trade and investment, multinational
corporations, competition, corruption, the environment and
intellectual property issues. This is a comprehensive appraisal of
development related problems in international economic relations
written by practitioners and academics in the field.' - Asif
Qureshi, University of Manchester, UK International Economic Law,
Globalization and Developing Countries explores the impact of
globalization on the international legal system, with a special
focus on the implications for developing countries. The onset of
the current process of globalization has brought about momentous
changes to the rules and processes of international law. This
comprehensive book examines a number of these changes, including
the radical expansion of international economic law, the increase
in the power of international economic organizations, and the new
informal approaches to law-making. The greater reliance on judicial
and arbitral mechanisms, and the proliferation of international
human rights instruments, many of which have a direct bearing on
international economic relations, are also discussed. The
contributors to this book are all prominent experts in the fields
of international law and international political economy, drawn
from both developing and developed countries. This insightful book
will appeal to scholars and advanced students with an interest in
international law, development studies, international political
economy and international governance. It will also be an
indispensable tool for practitioners - including members of leading
international NGOs, international lawyers, political scientists and
international development specialists. Contributors: Y. Akyuz, D.
