Recenzii
The "Washington Consensus" has shaped the world for nearly four decades since the 1980s. Although officially termed that way in 1990 only, neoliberal "structural reforms" had already been introduced to third countries before that. But thereafter, it was the vehicle for severe interventions into many countries that received credit from the IMF (and World Bank). It survived the 2008 financial crisis and the lingering Great Recession. This book provides a balance of its evolution, which is overly due and highly topical under the current "turn of the tide". Marangos’ huge merit is to also analyze it under plural "heterodox" perspectives, which illuminates many new aspects of the history of neoliberalism. A must-read that comes timely, as we all have to consider rebuilding the international political economy.

The topic of the Washington Consensus is always a good subject to discuss, given that the mainstream must take responsibility for having inflicted such pain on developing countries. In this sense, pluralist or heterodox economists must take up the opportunity of measuring the catastrophic consequences of the Washington Consensus. In this book, John Marangos does just this. He proposes a thorough analysis of it, from its roots to implementation, and offers a fair but insightful analysis, including the response by post-Keynesians, institutionalists, and Marxists. It is truly, a tour de force. This book is a must for any development and macroeconomics class.

John Marangos’ important new book arrives just in time to help us think through the challenges of rebuilding a post-Covid-19 world economy organized around principles of decency, sustainability, and resilience. The book provides urgently needed inspiration for policymakers and civil society actors searching for new approaches to policies that support development and human well being.
Ilene Grabel, Distinguished Professor of International Finance, Josef Korbel School of International Studies, University of Denver (USA).
With International Development and the Washington Consensus, we now finally have a convincing critical analysis of the core methodology that has influenced economic policy decisions across developing and emerging markets over the past several decades. The book masterfully covers both theoretical and applied aspects of the research problem, including a review of the development experience in the post-socialist countries of Central and Eastern Europe and former Soviet Union. Anyone working in the economic development field should read this book!
