RECLAIMING DEVELOPMENT:AN ALTENATIVE ECONOMIC POLICY MANUAL

There is no alternative to neoliberal economics – or so it appeared when Reclaiming Development was published in 2004. Many of the same driving assumptions – monetarism and globalization – remain within the international development policy establishment. Ha-Joon Chang and Ilene Grabel confront this neoliberal development model head-on by combining devastating economic critique with an array of innovative policies and an in-depth analysis of the experiences of leading Western and East Asian economies. Still, much has changed since 2004 – the relative success of some developing countries in weathering the global financial crisis has exposed the latent contradictions of the neoliberal model.
