Macroeconomics for Developing Countries cover

This comprehensively revised and updated edition develops the themes presented in the first edition.

* standard closed and open macroeconomic models
* a full evaluation of the post-Washington consensus model
* IMF stabilization programs and their effects on developing economies
* the pressing problems of indebtedness
* financial sector reforms in developing countries.

This informative textbook is the ideal accompaniment for students of development economics and it will prove popular with lecturers and academics alike.

'Macroeconomic policy is one of the most important area of development strategy. But until now we have lacked a guide to the macro-economics of developing countries. With the publication of the second edition of Raghav Jha's 'Macro-economics for Developing Countries', we now have an incisive and well-balanced view of some of the most urgent and important issues for facing the poorer world.' - Tony Addison, Deputy Director, World Institute for Development Economics Research, United Nations University
