Based on his experiences as director of the South Centre, the intergovernmental think tank for the South, Yash Tandon challenges what he describes as the misdirected aid and development policies of the last 30 years. He offers alternative concepts and paradigms of development for policy makers and peoples' movements on wide-ranging issues. He challenges his readers to 'dare to think differently'. According to Professor Tandon, development is self-defined. It is primarily the responsibility of the South to develop itself; the North does not have a duty to develop the South, nor should the South expect it. Development, he believes, is about building confidence between governments and their people. It is not about winning the confidence of banks and global financial institutions such as the World Bank and the IMF, which is what globalisation is all about. These essays expose Tandon's thinking on a cross-spectrum of issues including the reform of the Bretton Woods institutions; climate change and food security; industry, trade, innovation and intellectual property; the global financial crisis; ending aid dependence; and the Palestine-Israel question. They are essential reading for those who believe that 'another world is possible'. 'These essays promise to stand the test of time.' Benjamin W. Mkapa, President of Tanzania 1995-2005

Descripci�n de la librer�a

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
