Know about the book -

Developing the Global South is written by Paulos Milkias and published by Algora Publishing. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0875867235 (ISBN 10) and 9780875867236 (ISBN 13).

For four decades the UN has attempted to foster development in the countries of the Southern hemisphere. The book provides a synopsis of these efforts, from the Brandt Commission Report to Boutros Boutros Ghali's Agenda for Development. It presents opposing arguments in parceling responsibility for the growing gap between the North and the South and details the Millennium Development Goals and assesses their successes and failures so far. Prof. Milkias provides suggestions for closing the gap, for removing the debt burden that is currently crushing the nations of the South, and for relieving the poverty, ignorance and disease that plague so much of humanity.
