Promises Not Kept: The Betrayal of Social Change in the Third World

by John Isbister

About this title: This updated edition re-examines the plight of developing countries in light of recent events and post-cold war trends. As market forces become increasingly influential, allowing for unprecedented growth and the accumulation of great wealth, twentieth century promises continue to be transformed and abandoned. Isbister examines these phenomena and explains how the vulnerability of developing nations has grown.
