Handbook of Industrial Development Edited by Patrizio Bianchi, Sandrine Labory, University of Ferrara, Italy and Philip R.

Its ongoing transformation and a stronger and clearer directionality in policy action can critically contribute to establish sustainable development paths as well as to fight territorial imbalances. But how? This Handbook takes the challenge of unwinding this complex issue and analyses past experiences, potentials, limitations and perspectives for the future, adopting an intriguing multidisciplinary approach aimed at understanding both global and local stakes. An important contribution to the current efforts of both scientists and policymakers.’ – Alessandro Rainoldi, Joint Research Centre, European Commission, Spain Jan 2023 c 468 pp Hardback 978 1 80037 908 4 c £195.00 / c $285.00 eBook • Elgaronline Foreign Exchange Constraint and Developing Economies Edited by Aleksandr V. Gevorkyan, St. John’s University, New York, US ‘Most emerging and developing economies face a persistent foreign exchange gap.

This book is a very helpful collection of chapters that elucidates the various manifestations for the foreign exchange constraint. It covers a wide number of important topics such as capital flows, foreign debt, exchange rate policy, the role of MNCs, financial crisis, and others.
