'We analyze the challenges and opportunities of globalization for the prospects of economic development in latecomers. We study the debates among orthodox and heterodox economists about the development impact of international trade, foreign direct investment and the globalization of production chains, financial capital flows, and the structure of global governance in these areas. We explore how the rise of China impacts other developing countries. We include case studies, debates and simulations.'
