This is the first of four volumes reporting on the UNU-WIDER project on new regionalism. It deals with the conceptions and meanings of two processes which probably will have a crucial influence on the shape of the "new world order"--globalization and regionalization. They relate to each other as challenge to response, globalization being the challenge of economic and cultural homogenization of the world and regionalization being a social and political reaction. The leading writers in the field contribute thought-provoking and fascinating articles to this volume.
This is the first of five volumes reporting on the UNU-WIDER study
on New Regionalism. It deals with the conceptions and meanings of
two processes which probably will have a crucial influence on the
shape of the 'new world order' - globalization and regionalization.
These studies relate to each other as challenge to response,
globalization being the challenge of economic and cultural
homogenization of the world and regionalization being a social and
political reaction. The leading writers in the field contribute
thought-provoking and fascinating articles to this volume.
The post-socialist transitions in the East and the abandonment of
state-led development (dirigisme) in the South comprise one of the
most important global phenomena to unfold at the end of this
century. Rebuilding Capitalism contains innovative work by
well-known specialists in the fields of economic reform,
macroeconomics, and development. It offers a global and integrative
perspective on the theory and practice of economic reform after
socialist and dirigisme. The book considers the historical origins
of the current wave of market-oriented reform, reviews existing
controversies on the design of economic reforms, and offers
alternative criteria to evaluate policy performance. In particular
it focuses on issues of macroeconomic adjustment and stabilization,
liberalization policies, reform of the state, and interactions
between economic and political transformation during the course of
systematic transformation. A distinctive feature of this volume is
that it covers a wide range of reform experiences from various
countries. The analysis of post-socialist reform includes Eastern
Europe, Russia, China, and cases of reforming socialism in Africa
and Latin America (including a special chapter on Cuba).
Post-dirigisme transitions are examined for Latin America and East
Asia.
