Vulnerability has become the defining challenge of our times. More than one billion people worldwide live in extreme poverty. Facing risks exacerbated by natural hazards, ill-health and macroeconomic volatility, many are mired in inescapable poverty while millions others are on the brink of poverty.The need to better understand vulnerability is pressing, particularly in the case of developing countries where bulwarks against risks can be in short supply. This volume brings together essays from leading scholars to study the critical dimensions of vulnerability in developing countries, including the relationship between poverty and vulnerability as well as vulnerability arising from ill-health and external shocks.Reflecting the multi-dimensionality of vulnerability, the volume showcases a variety of methodologies that offer new perspectives on the use and relevance of vulnerability in economic development. Case studies focus on major developing countries like China and India, countries in transition, small island states and failing states. The volume concludes by offering a prescription on the necessary requirements to tackle vulnerability in developing countries, including strengthening household resilience, building appropriate safeguards against risk, and creating and maintaining quality institutions.

This study offers that it is consistent with and even complementary to the older and more traditional development strategies. We survey the literature on entrepreneurship in developing countries which, admittedly, is wide and covers a range of issues from culture and values; institutional barriers such as financial sector development, governance and property rights; to the adequacy of education and technical skills. A broad literature has also developed on foreign direct investment and its positive and negative effects on technology transfer and entrepreneurship. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, a number of studies examined the development of small and medium sized enterprises in transition economies. As these economies moved from centralized economies to market economies, enterprise and entrepreneurship became important. Yet, other studies examine the effects infrastructural development and the macroeconomy on entrepreneurship. With such a wide scope of issues, a framework for synthesizing the literature is needed. This study offers that the identification of the externalities which affect entrepreneurship provides a useful framework to examine the literature on entrepreneurship in developing countries

In: Journal of Chinese Entrepreneurship: Volume 1, Issue 3
We specified in our launching issue that the aim of the journal is to 'give a broad international coverage of subjects relating to entrepreneurship in China'. We have also come to realize that Chinese entrepreneurship would be better appreciated if it were to be explained and explored from an international lens. It is for this reason that this special issue of the journal is dedicated to the topic of entrepreneurship in developing countries. This is to acknowledge that entrepreneurship is the engine fueling innovation, job creation and economic growth in China and other developing economies al
"Politics in Developing Countries provides a clear and reader-friendly introduction to the key factors and themes that shape political processes in developing countries. Achieving development outcomes such as reducing poverty and inequality is only possible through efficient governance, well-planned policies and careful allocation of resources, but often politics in developing countries has been identified with mismanagement, corruption, conflict, and repression of dissent. This book assesses the politics of developing countries in the period since decolonisation, focusing on the ways in which states have or have not worked to the advancement of their citizens' interests. Key topics include: - Colonialism and its legacy - Ethnicity and nation building - Governance, corruption and the role of the state - Poverty and the political economy of development - Aid and outside influence Drawing on a range of case studies from around the world, Politics in Developing Countries looks at the consistencies and variations between developing countries, examining why some have forestalled political change by liberalising their economies, and others have actively stifled calls for change. Wide-ranging and engagingly written, this introductory textbook is perfect for students of politics and international development, as well as for those with a general interest in the challenges faced by countries in the Global South"--

"Recent years have seen a remarkable expansion in economists' ability to measure corruption. This, in turn, has led to a new generation of well-identified, microeconomic studies. We review the evidence on corruption in developing countries in light of these recent advances, focusing on three questions: how much corruption is there, what are the efficiency consequences of corruption, and what determines the level of corruption. We find robust evidence that corruption responds to standard economic incentive theory, but also that effects of anti-corruption policies often attenuate as officials find alternate strategies to pursue rents"--National Bureau of Economic Research web site
