Development and Policy Dialogue: Contemporary Insights

By Thomas Kaydor Jr.

We live in a time when the largest numbers of people who were being lifted out of absolute poverty in a relatively short time in human history have relapsed into extreme poverty due to the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). This is happening in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Pacific and Americas as well as all other parts of the globe. At this time, the understanding of Public Policy and development are enriched at an unprecedented pace. This is also the time when the once thriving economic, social, political and environmental transformations developing and developed countries experienced are being undermined by the global pandemic. The experience for developing countries to achieve prosperity through economic growth, good governance and inclusivity have gained greater attention today than ever. The desired paths and innovative approaches to harnessing public policy dialogue are even more demanding; thus, the rightful time to explore important insights about national and global development. Issues regarding aid, corruption and anti-corruption, poverty reduction, social protection, economic growth and overall sustainable development require sober reflections. Such reflections and insights must be evidence-based. To these, this book contributes. It's therefore a compelling consensus to grab and read a copy. Don't miss it.
