If one groups the economic and development challenges confronting countries both north and south of the equator during the contemporary period, perhaps the themes might include the following: poverty and social exclusion; the global financial crisis and domestic debt management; climate change and food security; international trade with emphasis on access to markets; and economic, social and political governance. Each issue has a different significance for each country, but there is little doubt that the issues fall within the schema of global public and development management concerns.
