A Decade of Development Thinking
The Research Department of the IDB (RES) performs innovative, comparative research on the development issues of greatest concern to the region today. It generates a wide variety of products based on this research and disseminates them to three principal audiences: the Bank, policymakers and the academic community. To commemorate its first decade of research, RES compiled a selection of the department's ten most influential papers, published through the Latin American Development Forum, a joint publications venture among the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), the IDB, Stanford University Press and the World Bank.
