New book: Structural change and industrial development in the BRICS

Structural Change and Industrial Development in the BRICS’ is a new book co-edited by MSM Dean Prof. Wim Naudé, which will be published in June 2015 by Oxford University Press.

This book provides a unique and timely analysis of the role of structural change in the economic development of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) with a consideration for the role of industry, and in particular manufacturing. The emergence of BRICS reflects an ongoing change in the international economic order. BRICS now account for very substantial part of global GDP, global manufactured value added and global manufactured exports. The book examines their economic experiences and structural change in BRICS over the past three decades, identifying both differences and commonalities, and deriving lessons for other industrializing countries.
