This volume spotlights some of the most important economic issues
confronting today's emerging developing countries. The topics
studied in the book include the importance of productivity to
economic growth, international trade and its relationship to
productivity; immigration and brain drain; pollution havens,
climate change, and the carbon tax; the effectiveness of foreign
aid, the efficiency of education, and governance. Written by some
of the most respected scholars in their respective fields, the
individual chapters apply both economic theory and the most current
empirical tools in rigorous but accessible exposition. Researchers
can find value in the modeling and empirical techniques that can be
applied to other countries and datasets. Policy makers can benefit
from the intellectual foundation on which decisions on important
issues can be based; and students of international trade, economic
development, and environmental economics can gain knowledge of
different country settings that give context to their fields of
study.
