Abtract: The world economy is not what it used to be twenty years ago.
For most of the 20th century, the world economy was characterized by developed
(North) countries acting as 'center' to a 'periphery' of developing (South)
countries. However, the recent rise of developing economies suggests the need
to go beyond this North-South dichotomy. This tectonic re-configuration of the
global landscape has brought about significant changes to countries in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region. The time is
ripe for an in-depth analysis of the dynamics and nature of LAC's external
connections. This latest volume in the World Bank Latin American and Caribbean
Studies series will focus on the implications of these trends for the economic
development of LAC countries. In particular, trade, financial, macroeconomic,
and sectoral shifts, as well as labor-market aspects will be systematically
analyzed.
