Drawing on extensive archival research in Mexico, the United States, and Great Britain, Christy Thornton meticulously traces how Mexican officials repeatedly rallied Third World leaders to campaign for representation in global organizations and redistribution through multilateral institutions. By decentering the United States and Europe in the history of global economic governance, \u003ci\u003e Revolution in Development\u003c\/i\u003e shows how Mexican economists, diplomats, and politicians fought for more than five decades to reform the rules and institutions of the global capitalist economy. In so doing, the book demonstrates, Mexican officials shaped not only their own domestic economic prospects but also the contours of the project of international development itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christy Thornton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520297156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520297159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Christy Thornton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43987495846143,"sku":"9780520297159","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aec05cf8-8c48-45eb-b1bd-ca81fb04b0b5.jpg?v=1683289328","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/revolution-in-development-christy-thornton-9780520297159","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
