Global Challenges, Restrictions and Policy Space: Finance and Development

New historical circumstances, such as globalization, the resurgence of the role of the state, and the recent economic crisis, have created unique opportunities to reopen the debate on diverse development models vis-à-vis the inexorable process of globalization. Macro-finance and financing development in a new era are the main issues that deserve renewed economic thinking.

Governance Challenges, Institutional Building, and National Responses

Different institutional matrices configure varieties of capitalism differently, where state coordination role appears with more or less centrality in the establishment of new patterns of development. The importance of evaluating how state elites design strategies for their countries in the medium-term, in their own institutional settings, based on what policy instruments they have at their disposal, calls for a comparative approach analysis. The dynamics of market expansion, the implementation of proactive policies and the creation of coalitions at the domestic level are central to the success of the above-mentioned strategies. Coalitions in international arenas should also be considered, because of their impact in the new competitive scenario.
