Description

Structural transformation has long been a powerful engine of growth and job creation in developing countries. However, traditional development aid is often found to be inadequate in addressing the bottlenecks that hinder this process.

This book offers a new perspective on South-South development aid and cooperation by examining it through the lens of structural transformation. The authors draw on successful economic transformations in countries such as China and South Korea, and present new ideas from emerging market economies like Brazil and India.

By exploring 'multiple win' solutions based on comparative advantages and economy of scale, this book aims to broaden the ongoing discussions of post-2015 development aid and cooperation. A valuable resource for anyone looking to understand the complexities of structural transformation and its role in driving economic growth.
