Beyond the Tobin Tax
The twin phenomena of erratic changes in foreign exchange rates and massive international flows of funds have been important elements in the instability of the world economy since the breakdown of the Bretton Woods system. The much-discussed Tobin Tax proposal on foreign exchange transactions is one response to these disturbances, but it addresses symptoms, not causes. James Tobin recognizes that a world currency with supporting institutions woul…

No Global War? A Role for Democratic Global Federalism
In fact, the issue is not whether we shall be governed globally, but rather by whom and on what basis. The international realm is not one of anarchy as the realists would have us believe, but rather one of order: of rules, procedures and accepted norms of behavior associated in part with what are termed "international regimes" (Krasner 1983), each dedicated in principle to a separate functional domain. Global governance is not something that is t…

Catching the Bus for Global Development
In 1962 Alexander Gerschenkron likened the spurt of industrialization (equated at the time with development) to a bus that “comes at odd hours and can be missed.” Building on his analogy, I ask whether we have already missed a bus for development and what we might do to accelerate the arrival of a suitable new bus headed for sustainable global development. Gerschenkron identified private surplus, banks, and states as the historically successive s…
North American Economic Cooperation
Current discussion of North American free trade, of free factor movements, and of resource sharing, has been largely silent about the extensive experience in economic cooperation between Washington, Ottawa, and Mexico City during World War II. That period, rather than illustrating that the Metropolis was otherwise occupied as André Gunder Frank has contended, shows the potential for common action by states when confronted by a unifying cause (or …
Industrial Development and Migrant Labour in Latin America
Sectoral Policy Preferences of the Peruvian Government, 1946-1968
The economic policies that have been implemented in Peru since 1968 by the military government have been the object of considerable attention. By contrast, evaluation of Peruvian economic policy in the preceding two decades has received rather limited attention. It is our objective in this article to put into perspective the export bias of important elements of Peruvian economic policy in the period following World War II and to outline some of t…
Employment in the Service Sector in Sub-Saharan Africa
One characteristic which all countries presently hold in common - whatever their level of income - is the tendency for a growing proportion of the population to be employed in the 'service sector' of their economies rather than in 'secondary' or industrial activities. The purpose of this short article is to suggest that a consideration of certain features of the expanding employment in services in low-income countries may help to evaluate two com…

in the past swept the field of administration, such as scientific management and human relations. These movements often develop a mythos, or what might be described as a junior-sized ideology. The function of the mythos is to sell the movement to nonbelievers. This is done by making extravagent claims as to the movement's capabilities. The purpose is to persuade outsiders, but one of the consequences is a self-sustaining mechanism in the mythos i…
