The Fall 2022 Global Economic Governance Book Talk Series convened five distinguished scholars across four webinars to discuss their recent books, spanning topics from the key to successful development to capital flight in Africa.<\/span><\/p>\n

In September, Stefan Dercon opened the series by unpacking what is behind the “development bargain” for developing countries. The following month, L\u00e9once Ndikumana discussed the impact of capital flight in Africa and the need for global coordination, and in November, Katrin Kaufer and Lillian Steponaitis explored the role and future of mission-driven banks. Finally, Zainab Usman bookended the series with a conversation on economic diversification in Nigeria and how to build a post-oil economy.<\/span><\/p>\n
