Dark victory : the United States, structural adjustment, and global poverty by
Walden F Bello(
Book
)
31 editions published between 1993 and 1999 in English and Undetermined and held by 1,535 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"As we enter the 21st century, many countries of the South are in a state of economic crisis, with once optimistic visions of the future cruelly dashed by rising mass poverty, inequality, and hunger. At the same time, working people in the North find their living standards declining. Dark Victory reveals the roots of these global trends in a sweeping strategy of global economic rollback unleashed by the U.S. to shore up the North's domination of the international economy and reassert corporate control. Bello argues that lower barriers to imports, removal of restrictions on foreign investments, privatisation of state owned activities, reduction in social welfare spending, and wage cuts and devaluation of local currencies - all conditions of structural adjustment loans from the North - have had disastrous consequences. Dark Victory is now reissued with a new epilogue by the authors."--BOOK JACKET

Deglobalization : ideas for a new world economy by
Walden F Bello(
Book
)
60 editions published between 2000 and 2014 in 3 languages and held by 1,277 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"How to manage the world economy - and, more fundamentally, whether humanity wishes it to go in an ever more market-oriented, transnational corporation-dominated and capital-footloose direction - is the most important international question of our time. In this short and trenchant history of those bodies - the World Bank, IMF, WTO and Group of Seven - which have promoted this economic globalization, Walden Bello points to their manifest failings; examines the major new ideas put forward for reforming the management of the world economy; and argues for a much more fundamental shift towards a decentralized, pluralistic system of global economic governance allowing countries to follow development strategies sensitive to their own values and particular mix of constraints and opportunities."--Jacket

Capitalism's last stand? : deglobalization in the age of austerity by
Walden F Bello(
)
14 editions published in 2013 in English and held by 1,122 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
In this eye-opening and often scathing book, Walden Bello provides a forensic dissection of contemporary capitalism's multiple crises. Trenchant but constructive, Bello's analysis of the collapse of the global real economy - covering such issues as the Wall Street meltdown, the disintegration of the Greek economy and the rise of China - emphasizes the ever more pressing need to engage in a radical process of 'deglobalization' towards a decentralized, pluralistic world system. Only then will we be able to construct a fairer and more equitable society

Asia's new battlefield : the USA, China and the struggle for the Western Pacific by
Richard Javad Heydarian(
)
6 editions published in 2015 in English and Undetermined and held by 1,066 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Offers a guide to understanding the evolution of maritime territorial disputes in East Asia, exploring their legal, political-security and economic dimensions against the backdrop of a brewing Sino-American struggle for hegemony. Heydarian shows how the pivotal relationship between the USA and China has been central to prosperity and stability in the Asia-Pacific. He also examines the ways that 'small' and 'middle' powers have shaped the trajectory of tensions in the region--tensions which could ignite an international war and re-configure the global order. --From publisher description

Dilemmas of domination : the unmaking of the American empire by
Walden F Bello(
Book
)
14 editions published between 2004 and 2005 in English and held by 520 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Walden Bello punctures the myth of America's invincibility, revealing its carefully concealed contradictions. He shows how, despite the enormity of the U.S. defense budget, American forces are critically overextended - a condition bound to intensify as each local "victory" breeds simmering resistance and new confrontations elsewhere. He points to the empire's looming economic breakdown, the result of its gargantuan military costs, record-breaking deficits, and exploitative trade and investment relations with developing countries. On the political front, he warns of the disillusionment mounting around the world in response to America's failure to champion liberal democracy. Everywhere America goes, crony capitalism, gross inequalities in income, and the hostile coercion of foreign peoples undermine its pretenses of justice and inclusion, leaving embittered - and often violently vengeful - populations in its wake."--Jacket

A Siamese tragedy : development and disintegration in modern Thailand by
Walden F Bello(
Book
)
16 editions published in 1998 in English and held by 447 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Thailand has come to be known as the Fifth Tiger. With the Asian economic collapse of 1997-1998, this book poses the central question: Is this merely a short term crisis or is there a real prospect of Thailand being pushed back into Third World status? The International Monetary Fund has intervened with an irrelevant, indeed damaging policy package that promises to determine the outcome." "A Siamese Tragedy argues that, even before the collapse, the Thai economy had feet of clay. Walden Bello and his co-authors show how vested interests, local and international, propelled the Thai people down a particular path which is unsustainable in terms of human exploitation, social disruption, ecological damage and economic fragility. Thailand, like rest of the world, needs to rethink the fundamentals of its economic model."--Jacket

Walden F Bello(
Book
)
18 editions published between 2004 and 2009 in English and held by 241 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This book examines how the political system of the Phillippines remains dominated by a competitive elite who oppose any significant attempts to address the country's huge social inequalities. The way out, he argues, is through the wholesale overhaul of the system of governance, leading to a new development strategy based on more, not less, state intervention, the domestic market as the driver of growth, and working together with other countries in the South
