| Abstract: |
"The economic order established after the Second World War at Bretton Woods has broken down and the world trading system has been cumulating difficulties over the years. Yet we hear a lot about inter-dependence, one world and the emerging “global village”.
While a consensus resolution supporting the concepts of New World Order was adopted by the sixth special session of the UN, various elements of the proposed programme were not accepted by the North. The sixth special session (April-May 1974) of the UN General Assembly, adopted a programme of action for NIEO, based on ‘‘Equity, sovereign equality, common interest and co-operation among all the States, irrespective of their social and economic system, which shall correct inequalities and redress existing injustices.” Looking back, we can say that the LDCs have raised the demand for changes in the working of the international institutions and various rules of the game, but it is not “about alternative versions of another development.” What went wrong with the NIEO proposals — were they repulsed by Northern Stonewalling or was the whole design basically wrong?" |
