Full Description


Hammouda's text focuses on modernization experiences in the South which, in the 80s had reached their limits, with the adoption of structural adjustment programmes in most countries. Yet, such Washington Consensus inspired programmes met difficulties in initiating new growth dynamics in these countries and in improving their international insertion. Hence, a new era termed post-adjustment by the author has been ushered in, one which is characterized by a decline of structural adjustment programmes and through dynamic and plural research, is striving to introduce new theoretical practices and development strategies. This book is a contribution to such debate.

Contents

Introduction; the failure of the Washington consensus; structural adjustment and the Asian model; the orthodoxy and post-adjustment; heterodoxy and post-adjustment; towards a new post-adjustment development strategy; regulation and post-adjustment theories; conclusion.
