Handbook of Emerging Economies cover

A major new volume in the Routledge International Handbooks series analysing emerging and newly emerged economies, including the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) and other likely (Turkey, Indonesia, Mexico, and South Korea) as well as possible (Vietnam, The Philippines, Nigeria, Pakistan, Egypt, Colombia and Argentina) candidates for emerging economy status. Chapters on theories surrounding emerging markets (including the Beijing/Washington Consensus debate) offer an overview of current issues in development economics, in addition to providing an integrated framework for the country case studies. Written by experts, this handbook will be invaluable to academics and students of economics and emerging economies, as well as to business people and researchers seeking information on economic development and the accelerating pace of globalization.

‘This volume will become the indispensable reference on emerging markets.’ – Moisés Naἰm, author of End of Power: From Boardrooms to Battlefields and Churches to States, why being in charge is no longer what it used to be.

‘This is another jewel in the editor’s and the publisher’s literary crowns.’ – Jahangir Amuzegar, former minister of Commerce and Minister of Finance, Iran, and a former executive director of the International Monetary Fund.

‘One-stop shopping for policy experts and international business professionals, not to mention the merely curious.’ – Peter Passell, former economics columnist for the New York Times and editor of the Milken Institute Review.

Here Robert Looney has assembled the essential handbook, and a remarkable collection of authors, to tell their tale.’– Barry Eichengreen, Professor of Economics and Political Science, University of California, Berkeley, and former senior policy adviser at the International Monetary Fund.
