Economic Co-Operation in the Commonwealth: The Commonwealth and International Library: Commonwealth Affairs Division

By Guy Arnold, Kenneth Bradley and D. Taylor

Economic Co-Operation in the Commonwealth focuses on the dynamics, issues, and political color of economic co-operation in the Commonwealth countries. The publication first elaborates on the economics of imperialism and basis for economic co-operation. Discussions focus on factors after the war, emergence of new Commonwealth, beginnings of aids, independence, free trade and protection, and World War I. The text then elaborates on trade, sterling, and investment and economic blocs. Topics include common market, United States, regional blocs, pattern of the Commonwealth trade, sterling and the sterling area, and investment. The manuscript ponders on immigration and minorities, neo-colonialism, and aid, including general flow of aid, Commonwealth needs, and Commonwealth aid effort and plan. The publication is a vital source of information for researchers interested in the economic co-operation in the Commonwealth countries.
