This book provides a unique and timely analysis of the role of
structural change in the economic development of Brazil, Russia,
India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) with a consideration for the
role of industry, and in particular manufacturing. The emergence of
BRICS reflects an ongoing change in the international economic
order. BRICS now account for very substantial part of global GDP,
global manufactured value added and global manufactured exports.
The book examines their economic experiences and structural change
in BRICS over the past three decades, identifying both differences
and commonalities, and deriving lessons for other industrializing
countries. Section I contains comparative studies focusing on the
commonalities and differences of the experiences of BRICS. Section
II includes six country studies providing a more detailed analysis
of the long-run experiences of each of the countries. Section III
consists of a set of seven thematic studies focusing on specific
topics such as global value chains, the role of transnational
corporations in the food chain, the role of foreign versus domestic
investment, the role of domestic versus foreign demand in economic
growth the diffusion of environmental energy technology and the
similarities, and the differences in industrial policies pursued in
the five countries. The book contains a summary chapter that
provides an integrated perspective of the various contributions
from the point of view of poverty reduction and development. It
asks, whether the patterns of structural change and industrial
development that BRICS experienced, had an impact on poverty
outcomes, and if so, what where the channels and the consequences?
