Product Description:
Since it was first published in 1995, Development Macroeconomics has remained the definitive textbook on the macroeconomics of developing countries. Now, in this fully revised and updated third edition, Pierre-Richard Agénor and Peter Montiel cover the latest advances in this rapidly changing field, making this the most up-to-date, authoritative, and comprehensive book available on the macroeconomic issues and challenges developing nations confront today.
Agénor and Montiel provide completely new and expanded coverage of fiscal discipline, monetary policy regimes, currency and banking crises, monetary unions, management of capital flows, the choice of an exchange-rate regime, public capital and growth, the political economy of stabilization and adjustment--and much more. They review attempts that have been made to adapt standard macroeconomic analysis to conditions in developing economies, and they use a variety of analytical models to address the macroeconomic policy issues that most concern these countries. Agénor and Montiel systematically examine empirical evidence on behavioral assumptions and on the effects of macroeconomic policies in developing nations. They also provide extensive references to literature in the field.
This new edition of Development Macroeconomics is the ideal introduction for students and an indispensable resource for researchers.
* Fully updated and expanded

* Features new material on fiscal discipline, monetary policy regimes, currency and banking crises--and much more
* Includes extensive references

Summary: quite good!!!
Rating: 5
This is a very original work on the macroeconomics of emerging markets. It is very useful if you are interested in working in the field of international finance and macroeconomics. It deals in a formal manner with financial and real problems the less developed nations have to cope with. This is its best characteristic. For you to grasp the whole content, your math and economic theory background must be solid. A senior undergraduate with good skills should be capable of understanding this wonderful book. I think a new edition is on the go.
If you find yourself curious about this topic, in adittion of Foundations of International Macroeconomics by Obtsfeld and Rogoff, be aware that prof. Carlos Vegh, the superb UCLA and IMF economist, is in the process of writing a graduate text on Open Economy Macroeconomics in Developing Countries (actually this is its name) http://www.econ.ucla.edu/cvegh/book/book.htm
Summary: An illuminating offer for macroeconomics scholars
Rating: 5
This book by Agenor and Montiel has succeeded to a large extent in their objective of integrating macroeconomic theory with the issues of the less developed countries. Proves to be an useful book which could be a decent alternative to the various textbooks in macroeconomics which are divorced of the diverse features of the less developed countries. Indeed an asset for the subject and the researchers. Worth possessing. But the cost is a little bit unaffordable for those in the developing world
