Critical
Mass: The Emergence of Global Civil Society. James W. St.G. Walker,
editor, and Andrew S. Thompson, editor.
Public concern about inequitable economic globalization has revealed
the demand for citizen participation in global decision making.
Civil society organizations have taken up the challenge, holding
governments and corporations accountable for their decisions and
actions, and developing collaborative solutions to the dominant
problems of our time.
Co-published with the Centre for International Governance Innovation

Reducing Poverty and Building Peace: Poverty and peace, and
the relationships between them, are the central challenges for our
times. Arguing that reducing poverty is not only possible, but can
also build opportunities for peace, Coralie Bryant and Christina
Kappaz help form the policy debate on the role of poverty reduction
in international society. Oftentimes poverty is looked at only in
specific countries, or is focused on developing countries.
Reducing Poverty, Building Peace looks at poverty from both
sides of the spectrum: domestic and global, rich and poor countries.

Analysing Macro-Poverty Linkages: Special Theme
Issue of the Development Policy Review: The analysis of macro-poverty linkages has emerged
as an important but contentious area of national and
international policy-making. Over the last few
years, considerable progress has been made in
understanding the linkages between macroeconomic
policies and poverty reduction, as well as in
developing evaluation tools and methodologies useful
in conducting ex-ante PSIAs of macro
policies.

Debating the Tobin Tax.
The New Rules
for Global Finance Coalition is proud to announce
the publication of a volume of financial policy
research. This book, the second in a series,
explores the argument for and against one of the
most provocative policy proposals in the
international economic policy arena – the Tobin
Tax. The tax proposal, named for the late Noble
Laureate and Yale University professor James Tobin,
would impose a small tax on transactions in foreign
currency and possibly a broader array of financial
instruments.
