This book examines how policies implemented by members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) affect development and poverty in developing and transition economies. The book focuses on three areas of interaction between developed countries and the rest of the world: trade, migration and foreign direct investment. "Global Exchange and Poverty" is a great accompaniment to the ongoing debate surrounding OECD policy coherence. By tracing the link between OECD policy and poverty in the developing world, the authors provide the inputs necessary to make policy mutually consistent and coherent within each developed country and coordinated across developed countries in order to avoid contradictions and cumulative unintended consequences. As one of the first books to trace the impact of OECD-country policies on poverty in the developing world, this book will appeal to post-graduate students studying development, particularly poverty, trade, investment and migration. Development practitioners concerned with developed-country policies will also find this of great benefit.
