     Summary

This book has been prepared for the commission on growth and development to evaluate the prospects for economic growth in developing countries in the wake of the global financial and economic crisis of 2008-09. It considers a range of questions, particularly with regard to the future of globalization and the policy implications of the crisis. It explores important issues pertaining to short-term, medium-term, and long-term growth and puts forward the latest policy ideas for fostering sustained economic growth in the developing world. Written by prominent academics, policy makers, and practitioners, globalization and growth seeks to create a better understanding of the evolving dynamics of globalization and economic growth, with particular regard to developing countries, and to inform policy makers of possible policy options that address central concerns in this area.
