Book Development Economics in the Twenty First Century

Download or read book Development Economics in the Twenty First Century written by Claudia Sunna and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Development Economics has been identified as a homogeneous body of theory since the 1950s, concerned both with the study of development issues and with the shaping of more effective policies for less advanced economies. Development Economics in the Twenty-First Century brings together an international contributor team in order to explore the origins and evolution of development economics. This book highlights the different elements of ‘high development theory’ through a precise reconstruction of the different theoretical approaches that developed between the 1950s and the 1970s. These include the theory of balanced and unbalanced growth theory, the debate on international trade, the concept of dualism, dependency theory, structuralism and the analysis of poverty and institutions. The chapters highlight the relevance and usefulness of these analyses for the contemporary theoretical debate on development issues. Comparative perspectives are explored and analysed, including those of Keynes, Hirschman, Krugman and Stiglitz. The chapters situate development economics within current debates among economists and historians of economic thought, providing a platform for future research. This book is suitable for researchers and students with an interest in Development Economics, the History of Economic development and the Economics of Developing Countries.

Book Interdependent Development

Download or read book Interdependent Development written by Harold Brookfield and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2012-08-06 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rather than being a book about ‘development’ per se, this work, first published in 1975, is instead a book about ideas about development, designed for those drawn by a concern over social injustice into the development field. In a selective review of theory, which gives particular emphasis to the spatial dimension in Western, Marxist and neo-Marxist thought, Harold Brookfield traces the evolution of ideas about world inequality and the problem of development from the days before the ‘underdeveloped countries’ were considered to be a major problem, through the years dominated by ‘economic growth’, to the more searching approaches of the contemporary era. The central argument of the book is that development is a ‘totality’, which cannot properly be understood by separation into parts. The ‘developed’ and ‘underdeveloped’ countries constitute one interdependent system, and change in one cannot be understood without consideration of the other.

Book Dualism in Economic Growth

Download or read book Dualism in Economic Growth written by Luigi Spaventa and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The article examines a previous contribution to the problems of economic dualism by Vera Lutz, which represents a new and independent approach. The author first moves some criticisms to Lutz' diagnosis of dualism, trying to show that the emphasis laid by her on the wage level as a cause of dualism is not justified and points out some flaws in the mechanism through which the wage level should affect employment. In the main part of the analysis, however, the author suggests an alternative and more general explanation of dualism in economic growth, from which emerges an implicit refutation of any therapy founded exclusively on capital accumulation and on the constancy of wages; according to the model, under certain conditions dualism can arise independently of the behaviour of wages. In conclusion, the author argues that dualism is not simply an accident in the economic history of some countries, but an immanent - though possibly avoidable with adequate policy measures - obstacle for economies which are now at the initial stages of development.

Using Turkey as their primary example, they address these two most discussed and difficult issues related to policy setting, blazing a path for those seeking an applied economic research framework to study such economic considerations.

Book Pioneers in Development

Download or read book Pioneers in Development written by Theodore William Schultz and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1987 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two outstanding features in the evolution of development economics have been the resurgence of neo-classical analysis during the 1960s and 1970s and, as a derivative, the prescription of appropriate policies for development. The papers in this volume examine the changing contours of the subject of economic development over the past three decades, focusing on these two features and indicating how their results have been most impressive for the analysis of agricultural policy, trade policy, and project evaluation. Five pioneers in special fields related to the subject--agriculture, international trade, trade and development, project appraisals, and structuralism and dependency--review their own contributions and interpret the evolution of their fields during the 1960s and 1970s, with other prominent economists serving as commentators. Together, the papers provide considerable insight into how development thought has evolved in response to the development experience since the 1950s, and from that, how it might evolve in the future.
