Jean-Claude Masangu Mulongo was appointed Governor of the Central Bank of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in 1997, the world's first French speaking country. He is unquestionably one of the major players, let it be in times of upheaval, stock market crash, financial crisis, wars, or in the most glorious moments. Thanks to his work and foresight, the Congolese inflation rate dropped from 500 per cent to 10 per cent. This unique account of a man who witnessed the change that the DRC and Africa are going through, is followed up by a clear and uncompromising analysis, going from his relationship with the Bretton Woods institutions to the coming of new partners such as China, a country that disrupts the African financial and international markets...A genuine and sincere story, a track record of a real fighter, an exceptional experience, and an original vision that gives hope to whoever wants to be a part of a world on the move. - Laurent Taieb

Este libro es un tributo que un grupo de amigos rinde a Enrique Iglesias. Por sus funciones y acciones, Enrique se convirtió hace ya décadas en un reconocido y muy valorado ciudadano latinoamericano que durante toda su carrera profesional ha hecho importantes aportes al desarrollo y la democracia en la región, además de ser un puente entre ella y el resto del mundo. Su trayectoria profesional ha sido muy destacada: Presidente del Banco Central y Ministro de Relaciones Exteriores de Uruguay, Secretario Ejecutivo de la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe, Presidente del Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo y, hasta hace unas semanas, Secretario General de la Secretaría General Iberoamericana. Como bien señaló Enrique García en la presentación de la edición preliminar denominada Cero en Madrid el 20 de mayo de 2014, publicada por la CAF- Banco de Desarrollo de América Latina: Esta publicación es un merecido tributo a un ciudadano latinoamericano que ha puesto su vida e ideas al servicio de América Latina, defendiendo sus más altos intereses para asegurar el cumplimiento del sueño que ha guiado a generaciones y que se sintetiza en una trilogía virtuosa: democracia, desarrollo sostenible e integración.

(The world economy has, over the past half century, become...)
The world economy has, over the past half century, become increasingly intertwined, and countries mutually dependent. The convergence of emerging market economies (EMEs) with the advanced, richer ones has led to dramatic transformation-where the former have sustained growth rates far higher than the latter. But more recently, given the global economic turbulence since 2007, questions have arisen as to whether the era of rapid convergence is over, and whether more EMEs are destined to get mired in the middle income trap. This book takes a long-term perspective of the economic and social outlook of the world to 2050, focusing on cross-cutting intergenerational issues that often get overshadowed by the short-term crises and political preoccupations of the day. It argues that for a prosperous economic order, convergence of large developing economies-led by East Asia and India-with the developed world is crucial given the former's share in the global GDP. Addressing the various aspects of emerging markets such as international trade, urbanization, food security, climate change, and governance, the book brings out the role of the global economic community toward increasing living standards throughout the world while pressuring our fragile planet. A joint effort of a multidisciplinary, multicultural team of 26 authors who were born in twelve different countries on five continents, this book is an analytically rigorous exploration of the future of the global economy and its societies.
