Book description

Why read it?
1 author picked One Economics, Many Recipes as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book presents one of the most thoughtful and—to me—convincing accounts of the relationship between globalization and economic growth.
The author rejects the simple dichotomies offered up by “pro-globalizers” and “anti-globalizers,” arguing that successful development tends to require experimentation, pragmatism, and the adaptation of policy tools to local contexts.
This empirically grounded perspective not only explains a great deal of variation in the fortunes of developing countries but also complements and extends key principles of economics.
From Ranjit's list on international political economy.
