Special South Bulletin (Issue 38, 7 July 2009) -The Significance of the UN Conference on the Financial Crisis

The new South Bulletin is a special edition focusing on the outcome of the UN Conference on the Financial Crisis held on 24-26 June.

It was an important conference.  The UN members adopted a consensus document with a lot of significant substance in it, on a range of complex issues relating to the economic crisis and the international financial system, and with many points pointing to the direction and content of actions, was an accomplishment in itself.

The Bulletin contains many important articles and documents that we hope will provide our readers with a good idea of what happened at the Conference, and the significance of its outcome.

In addition to the whole issue, articles in the Bulletin are available for separately downloading:
