A major new volume in the Routledge International Handbooks series analysing emerging economies, including the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) and other likely (Turkey, Indonesia, Mexico, and South Korea) as well as possible (Vietnam, The Philippines, Nigeria, Pakistan, Egypt, Colombia and Argentina) candidates for emerging economy status. Chapters on the Porter Competitiveness Framework, the World Economic Forum Country Stage Classification and the Beijing/Washington Consensus debate offer an overview of current issues in development economics, in addition to providing an integrated framework for the country case studies.
