The international economic order created at Bretton Woods in 1944 was not crafted with the developing countries principally in mind.

The problems and opportunities of developing countries have moved to center stage in today's global economy. The contributors to this volume examine ways in which the international economic system could be reformed in order to better meet the needs and aspirations of the developing world in the coming decades.
