Wealthy countries of the North own and use far too big a proportion of the
world’s resources, forcing poorer countries to be dependent on handouts. In
Beyond the Dependency Culture, James Robertson—a former Whitehall policy
maker—considers ways to break out of dependency and the prospects that
this could open up in the 21st century for all. Published by Adamantine
Press/Praeger, £27.50/$56, ISBN 0744901383/0275963152.
