Summary

This prestigious collection includes a contribution by 1998 Nobel Laureate in Economics, Amartya K. Sen, and offers a new rationale and framework for international, development cooperation."At a time when many are saying that globalization has gone too far, UNDP has produced a wide and deep study of global, public goods. The volume deals with peace and trade, but also with global, warming, transnational pollution, disease, and financial crises -- all public bads -- and their suppression, which constitutes a good. The subject is complex but of paramount importance to a world experiencing, or approaching, multidimensional crises." -- Charles Kindleberger, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
