Succeeding with Trade Reforms: The Role of Aid for Trade highlights the potential of aid for trade to boost economic growth and reduce poverty, while discussing the various reasons why it may not be realised. In so doing, this book draws lessons for the design of aid-for-trade projects and programmes and for increasing their effectiveness. Building on this analysis, the book also quantifies the binding constraints to trade in developing countries and the importance of complementary and compatible policies (such as education, governance, business environment and macroeconomic stability) to maximise the impact of trade reforms on trade and economic growth.

Les migrations internationales constituent un véritable défi pour le monde contemporain. Bien que le constat ne soit pas nouveau, la croissance des flux dans le contexte actuel géopolitique, économique et environnemental appelle de nouveaux regards. Face à la diversification des destinations, des foyers de départ ou encore des profils des migrants, l’ouvrage privilégie la parole de « l’acteur migrant » et accorde une large place à ses stratégies et ses trajectoires. Sans sous-estimer les déterminants macro-économiques ou géopolitiques, les auteurs éclairent les initiatives des populations en migration et révèlent l’épaisseur sociale de leurs expériences. Ils mettent l’accent sur les logiques des organisations collectives et des réseaux sociaux, sur le rôle des migrants dans le développement ou encore sur les dynamiques culturelles associées au fait migratoire. Selon une perspective pluridisciplinaire, et à partir d’exemples africains, sud-américains ou asiatiques, l’ouvrage met en valeur la construction de nouveaux territoires de mobilité et montre la diversité des trajectoires migratoires depuis les pays du Sud vers ceux du Nord mais aussi, et de plus en plus, entre pays du Sud.

The paper analyzes how the UNDP, the World Bank, and the IMF classify countries based on their level of development. These systems are found lacking in clarity with regard to their underlying rationale. The paper argues that a country classification system based on a transparent, data-driven methodology is preferable to one based on judgment or ad hoc rules. Such an alternative methodology is developed and used to construct classification systems using a variety of proxies for development attainment.
