Summary

This book examines the historical, diplomatic, economic, and strategic aspects of the European Recovery Program (ERP) -- popularly known as the Marshall Plan -- which brought Europe out of the chaos, hunger, poverty, desperation, and ashes of World War II. In it, authors from a variety of countries who are scholars, policy makers, and business leaders, address applications of the Marshall Plan's lessons learned to the 21st century for capacity building, human and sustainable development, and the role of public, private partnerships in emerging market economies and democratic societies.--Publisher's description.
