Originally Published : 22 Apr 1999

In Global Instability, internationally renowned contributors examine the key problems besetting the world economy in the era of globalisation and outline possible solutions. They reject the current orthodoxy in mainstream economics, challenging the fatalistic belief that the new globalised economy resists any change of course. The book reviews:
* international economic institutions
* the linked crises which recently hit Asian economies
* the implications of globalisation * the role of multinational investment, the IMF and the World Bank.
Global Instability is a comprehensive and much-needed analysis of the contemporary economy written by leading authorities in the field, and will be vital reading for anyone in management, business, or economics.
