摘要：International economic policy is now more under the sway of
orthodox economics than it has ever been. The main international economic
institutions, the IMF, the World Bank, the WTO, and the major developed
economies are unremitting advocates of free trade and impose their views on
the developing countries. And the developing countries, whose attempts at
economic development through protection have mostly failed, are on the
whole inclined to accept these views. Over the last twenty years economic
policy in these countries has more and more come to be formulated by
orthodox neo-classical economists, often described in the press as
“reformers”, who advocate more reliance on markets and less protection
against imports.
