Challenging BRICS mythology
Patrick Bond and Ana Garcia have brought together in their co-edited book, BRICS: an Anti-Capitalist Critique, a formidable collection of academics who attempt to weigh the collective and individual stances, often contradictory, of the countries known as the BRICS nations: Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. The objective is to ascertain whether the actions of these so-called emerging economies amount to a challenge to the present hier…

Liberalisation is not enough
After four years of structural adjustment with a considerable injection of funds under International Monetary Fund and World Bank programmes, the benefits have failed to filter out from the capital Bissau to reach the small‐scale rural producers.

Galli does not contest the need for market liberalis…

Rather, this essay argues that commercial, fiscal, and exchange rate policies and the response of the majority of rural producers to t…

The new technology is designed as a counter-reform to the effects of the first green revolution which in the mid-1960s introduced improved seeds and plant varieties along with fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and advanced agricultural techniques to produce a doubling and tripling of crop yields. The capital investments required for the original technologica…

Specifically the UN development system has been coopted in…
