William Milberg is Professor of Economics at the New School for Social Research in New York. He has served as a consultant to the International Labor Organization (ILO), the World Bank, and the UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). He is the author (with Robert Heilbroner) of The Making of Economic Society and The Crisis of Vision in Modern Economic Thought, and the editor of Labor and the Globalization of Production, as well as the author of numerous articles on the labor market effects of international trade and on the methodology of economics. Professor Milberg received his PhD in economics from Rutgers University.
This book challenges the idea that development is synonymous with 'upgrading' global value chains through an institutional theory of trade and development.
