Toward a New Consensus on Globalization and Development

Edit this Page
New Publications from GDAE Research Collaboration:
Toward a New Consensus on Globalization and Development

GDAE’s collaborating institute, Research and Information Systems for Developing Countries (RIS), has released a set of research papers, which are the product of a joint project among GDAE, RIS, and the Argentina-based Research Center for Economic Change (CENIT). The two-year project, which is supported in part by the Ford Foundation, has the goal of moving beyond the constraints of the so-called Washington Consensus to formulate a new set of principles more favorable to development. The recent papers include:

Kevin P. Gallagher and Mehdi Shafaeddin, “Policies for Industrial Learning in China and Mexico”

Timothy A. Wise, “The Limited Promise of Agricultural Trade Liberalization”

Andrés López and Eugenia Orlicki, “Who Uses the Patent System in Developing Countries? A Study of Patent Propensities in Argentina, 1992-2001”

Previous papers released for the project include:

Nagesh Kumar, “South-South and Triangular Cooperation in Asia-Pacific: Towards a New Paradigm in Development Cooperation,”

Faizel Ismail, “Rediscovering the Role of Developing Countries in GATT Before the WTO”

Ramgopal Agarwala, “Reforming the Bretton Woods System for Inclusive Development and Democratic Global Governance”

Kevin P. Gallagher and Timothy A. Wise, “Back to the Drawing Board: No Basis for Concluding the Doha Round of Negotiations”

Several of the papers were presented at a conference in February 2009 on “Financial Crisis, Global Economic Governance and Development: Responses of Asia and the Global South,” co-sponsored by the three institutes and other organizations. A report on the conference can be downloaded:
