We recommend the following reads for the week.
Mihály Simai: THE EVOLUTION OF A POST-CRISIS WORLD: NEW TRENDS AND STRUCTURES IN A TURBULENT GLOBAL SYSTEM
Is the era of globalization and “neoliberalism” over? Does the global crisis that began in 2007 mark the beginnings of the “post-neo-liberal” world? Are neoliberal policies the only ones in crisis?

The outcome of the search for practical answers and development policies may bring long-term changes.
