Edited by Janet Welsh Brown One billion more people will inhabit the planet by the year 2000, most of them in low income Latin American, Asian, and African countries, whose fragile natural and economic resources are already perilously overburdened. If current trends continue, even competent democratic developing nations, such as Mexico and Egypt, will be unable to meet their people's basic needs by early in the next century. Through incisive case studies of Mexico, the Philippines, Egypt, and Kenya, contributing authors demonstrate the fact that the United States is ultimately vulnerable to the economic, population, and environmental problems plaguing the developing world and that solutions will not be found without new levels and forms of cooperation between North and South. Brown examines a range of options fro the United States, including trade, debt management, and foreign assistance, and offers concrete recommendations for international cooperation for development.
