Recenzii
“Michalopoulos’ book represents a thorough and thoughtful account of the myriad policy and analytical issues which lie at the crossroads of trade, aid and the development process. Its breadth of coverage and extensive bibliography after each chapter make it an important reference for students and practitioners of these matters, as well as for policymakers grappling with such issues.” (George Papaconstantinou, Southeast European and Black Sea Studies, November 11, 2018)
