Abstract

The essays in this volume are edited versions of papers originally presented and discussed at a colloquium held in Ottawa in June 1994. Its two related purposes were, first and foremost, to honour the work of Professor Gerald Helleiner, Canada’s leading international development economist; and second, to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the Bretton Woods institutions (the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, which were established in 1944 at an historic conference in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire).

I am grateful to my co-editors Al Berry and Frances Stewart for their helpful suggestions.
