Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: This book presents a nuanced and comprehensive examination of the Developing-8 Organization for Economic Cooperation, encapsulating its historical evolution, sectoral initiatives, challenges, and future prospects. Beginning with an insightful account from the Istanbul Seminar to the Istanbul Declaration, the book contextualizes the formation, objectives, and structural dynamics of the D-8, setting a solid foundation for understanding its role in fostering South-South cooperation. The book methodically explores the D-8′s multisectoral initiatives across agriculture, trade, industry, energy, and tourism, highlighting key achievements such as the Dispute Settlement Mechanism, the Preferential Trade Agreement, and the establishment of specialized research centers. Sector-specific analyses provide a critical lens on the D-8′s potential in high-technology production, sustainable energy, and regional integration, with a focused case study on Nigeria’s energy sector. Furthermore, the book offers an indepth look at the economic profiles and sectoral opportunities of member states, emphasizing the significance of intra-trade relations in driving economic development. The role of education systems in transitioning D-8 countries towards knowledge-based economies is meticulously examined, alongside Malaysia’s strategic economic cooperation under the MADANI government’s vision. A critical analysis of the D-8′s legal and policy frameworks underscores their role in shaping economic cooperation, while discussions on climate-smart agriculture and sustainable energy highlight future pathways for ensuring food security and economic resilience. Concluding with an evaluative discourse on the D-8′s challenges and opportunities within the global economic landscape, this book serves as an essential academic resource, offering scholars, policymakers, and stakeholders a well-rounded understanding of the D-8′s trajectory and its potential for fostering sustainable economic development in the Global South. The book will appeal to students, scholars, researchers of economic, international relations, history and management in general.
