not talk about growth enough, and when they do, they speak with unearned conviction. Too often, people overlook economic growth when thinking about how to tackle the world’s most pressing problems, such as poverty, illiteracy, and unemployment. At the same time, their understanding of the mechanics of growth is less defi ni- tive than commonly thought—even though advice is often given to develop- ing countries with great confi dence. Consequently, the Commission’s mandate is to “take stock of the state of theoretical and empirical knowl- edge on economic growth with a view to drawing implications for policy for the current and next generation of policy makers.” To help assess the state of knowledge, the Commission invited lead- ing academics and policy makers from around the world to a series of 12 workshops held from 2007 to 2009 in Washington, DC; New York City, NY; New Haven, CT; and Cambridge, MA.

The effort will be led by Nobel Prize-winning economists Joseph Stiglitz and Michael Spence. As an independent entity, the Commission on Global Economic Transformation (CGET) is the first commission of its kind, initiated at a critical moment for the global economy. As political and economic populism sweep across the developed world, developing countries are searching for paths to prosperity, and people around the world are struggling with the challenges posed by widening inequality, technological disruption, and climate change. These problems are compounded by the ineffectiveness of current policy tools in many contexts, raising questions about the role of the state, of civil society, and of individuals along with national and international governance frameworks.

Citizens of these newly- admitted countries were subsequently free to take jobs anywhere in the EU, and many did so. In 2015, a large number of refugees from Syria and other broken countries sought to migrate to EU countries (along very dangerous routes), and these refugees were met with fierce resistance, at least in some places.

Papers may be downloaded for personal use only. THE NEW DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS: WE SHALL EXPERIMENT, BUT HOW SHALL WE LEARN?* Dani Rodrik John F. Kennedy School of Government Harvard University Revised Draft July 2008 ABSTRACT Development economics is split between macro-development economists—who focus on economic growth, international trade, and fiscal/macro policies—and micro-development economists—who study microfinance, education, health, and other social programs. Recently there has been substantial convergence in the policy mindset exhibited by micro evaluation enthusiasts, on the one hand, and growth diagnosticians, on the other. At the same time, the randomized evaluation revolution has led to an accentuation of the methodological divergence between the two camps. Overcoming the split requires changes on both sides. Macro- development economists need to recognize the distinct advantages of the experimental approach and adopt the policy mindset of the randomized evaluation enthusiasts. Micro-development economists, for their part, have to recognize that the utility of randomized evaluations is restricted by the narrow and limited scope of their application.

THE CASE FOR CROSS-DISCIPLINARY APPROACHES IN INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTi John Harriss ( LSE) Introduction: ‘Saving Disciplines from Themselves’ The English word ‘discipline’ derives from the Latin ‘disciplus’, which means ‘disciple’, and it was used at an early stage in the development of the language to refer to “the training of scholars and subordinates [disciples in other words] to proper conduct and action by instructing and exercising them in the same” (OED). ‘Discipline’ has the meaning, too, of “a system of rules for conduct”, as well as of “the order maintained among persons under control or command” or “a trained condition”; and, relatedly, it has the further sense of ‘correction’ or ‘chastisement’, intended (clearly) to maintain the ‘order’ and ‘proper conduct and action’ that are intrinsic to what ‘discipline’ is understood to be. It is helpful, I believe, to reflect upon these meanings of the term ‘discipline’ when we come to consider its use, also, in the academy to refer to a ‘branch of instruction’ or a ‘department of knowledge’.
