The World Economic and Social Survey is an annual, widely-utilised and much respected publication from the United Nations. This 2010 edition highlights the need for a strong mechanism for global economic coordination which establishes coherence across all areas of global economic governance.

The survey points to promising directions for reform, including:

• strengthening government capacities for formulating and implementing national development strategies;

• doing more to ensure that official development assistance is aligned with national priorities;

• strengthening the international trade and financial systems so that countries with limited capabilities can successfully integrate into the global economy; and

• creating new mechanisms for dealing with deficiencies, such as specialised multilateral frameworks through which to govern international migration and labour mobility, international financial regulation, multinational corporations and global value chains regulation, as well as sovereign debt workouts.

Key features:

• Also available in French and Spanish

• Practical and adaptable recommendations

• Timely report on global governance from the world authority
