Development and International Economics

The book provides a collection of interesting analytical views on
contemporaneous issues of development and international economics such as
globalization, brain drain toward developed countries, the European business
cycle’s impact on African economies, the importance of capital maintenance for
growth, and so on. The research results provided by the authors, of whom
several are – or have been – members of the Académie Louvain, can be used as
starting points for further development of the various covered fields. The
book turns out to be a “value-added” contribution to economic literature
advances and a remarkable opportunity to honor the memory of Michel Norro, who
had a long-lasting career in teaching international economics and critiquing
development policies, with a special focus on those which affect African
economies. People interested in African economy analysis have inherited his
valuable book Économies africaines.
