In this important new work, Hulme charts the rise of global poverty as a priority global issue, and its subsequent marginalisation as old themes edged it aside (trade policy and peace-making in regions of geo-political importance) and new issues were added (terrorism, global climate change and access to natural resources). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey updates for the new edition: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eevaluation of the post-2015 Development Agenda and the Rio+20\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eexploration of how Colombia and Brazil are pushing a sustainability agenda as a Southern perspective to challenge the aid focus of OECD post-MDGs interests\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eexamination and discussion of the gradual shift of power and influence to the BRICs and emerging regional powers (Indonesia, Turkey, South Africa) but the lack of change in global institutions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eexploration of Russia's lack of participation in the development agenda \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first book to tackle the issue of global poverty through the lens of global institutions; this fully updated volume provides an important resource for all students and scholars of international relations, development studies and international political economy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Hulme\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138826812\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138826816\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.50w x 1.00d","brand":"David Hulme","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065374716159,"sku":"9781138826816","price":220.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6649ffdb-5359-4398-885a-ddfc5e7bd3a9.jpg?v=1768674770","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/global-poverty-david-hulme-9781138826816","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
