This book brings together a lively collection of papers presenting provocative and heterodox views on a range of important economic issues for developing countries. The volume is particularly important for providing alternative macroeconomic policies for sub-Saharan Africa, especially on fiscal and monetary policies that aim to generate growth and productive employment. The contributors to this volume dispel the common illusion that the scaling up Official Development Assistance jeopardizes macroeconomic stability. The book offers useful policy recommendations on improving public finances in developing countries, particularly bymobilizing more domestic revenue and taking full advantage of debt relief. It systematically links fiscal, monetary and financial policies with the goal of generating broad-based employment at decent wages. The book contains thirteen papers from internationally recognized experts. The contributions formulate a progressive framework of alternative economicpolicies that could help developing countries achieve growth, employment and poverty reduction. It will be indispensable reading for thoseinterested in studying development issues in economics.
