Download or read book The Comparative Political Economy of Development written by Barbara Harriss-White and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-21 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illustrates the enduring relevance and vitality of the comparative political economy of development approach promoted among others by a group of social scientists in Oxford in the 1980s and 1990s. Contributors demonstrate the viability of this approach as researchers and academics become more convinced of the inadequacies of orthodox approaches to the understanding of development. Detailed case material obtained from comparative field research in Africa and South Asia informs analyses of exploitation in agriculture; the dynamics of rural poverty; seasonality; the non farm economy; class formation; labour and unfreedom; the gendering of the labour force; small scale production and contract farming; social networks in industrial clusters; stigma and discrimination in the rural and urban economy and its politics. Reasoned policy suggestions are made and an analysis of the comparative political economy of development approach is applied to the situation of Africa and South Asia. Aptly presenting the relation between theory and empirical material in a dynamic and interactive way, the book offers meaningful and powerful explanations of what is happening in the continent of Africa and the sub-continent of South Asia today. It will be of interest to researchers in the fields of development studies, rural sociology, political economy, policy and practice of development and Indian and African studies.

Download or read book Eastern and Western Ideas for African Growth written by Kenichi Ohno and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-29 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The West and the East approach economic development differently. The Europeans and Americans stress free and fair business climate, promoting private activities generally without picking winners, and improving governance. East Asia is interested in achieving concrete results and projects rather than formal correctness, prioritizing a few sectors for industrialization, and eventual graduation from aid. The West mostly shapes shifting strategies of the international donor community while the East has in reality made remarkable progress in industrial catch-up. The two approaches cannot be merged easily but they can be used in proper combination to realize growth and economic transformation. This book proposes more dialogue and complementarity between the two in the development effort of Africa and other regions. In this collected volume, contributed by experts and practitioners from both East and West, the need to introduce Eastern ideas to the global development strategy is emphasized. Analysis of British and other Western donor policies is given while Japanese, Korean, and other Asian approaches are also explained with concrete examples. The concept of governance for growth is presented and the impact of rising China on development studies is contemplated. The practices of industrial policy dialogues and actions assisted by East Asian experts are reported from Tunisia, Zambia, Ethiopia, Rwanda, and others. The book should be applicable to all donors, institutions, NGOs and business enterprises engaged in development cooperation.

Download or read book Tanzanian Development written by Andrew Coulson and published by Eastern Africa. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An up-to-date, comparative, examination of the developing economy of Tanzania and its grass roots progress out of poverty, with pointers to its wider implications for policymakers, NGOS and practitioners. Over the past thirty years, in common with a number of other Sub-Saharan African countries, Tanzania has experienced a period of painful adjustment followed by relatively rapid and stable economic growth. However the extent of progress on poverty reduction and the sustainability of the development process are both open to question. In this book, prominent international observers provide a range of different perspectives on the process of development over time and the issues facing a rapidly growing African economy: political economy; agriculture and rural livelihoods; industrial development; urbanisation; aid and trade; tourism; and the use of natural resources. Comparisons are drawn with other African economies as well as other developing countries, such as Vietnam. An invaluable deep review of Tanzania's economy and development, the book also looks at the wider implications of the research for the futureon the continent and beyond. David Potts is Honorary Visiting Researcher at the University of Bradford and was Head of the Bradford Centre for International Development 2015-16. He worked for six years as an economist in Tanzania's Ministry of Agriculture in the 1980s, has had many subsequent short-term assignments in the country and is co-editor of Development Planning and Poverty Reduction (2003).
Download or read book Comparison of Somalia and the East Africa Community in Terms of Economy and Competition written by Sadak Mohamud Hassan and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the contemporary business environment, regional integration has become recognized as a powerful engine for advancing social and economic development. In order to pursue shared economic, social, and political development, economies in both developed and developing regions implement regional integration policies and initiatives. The East African Community is one of the integrations that will be used as an example of regional integration. The Community was founded in 1967. The three nations, Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, decided to work together in a variety of economic and social areas. The East African Community (EAC) currently consists of six countries and in 2022 Somalia has once again announced that it is a candidate to join this community. The purpose of this article is to conduct a research on whether Somalia will have economic and competitive power when it joins the East African Community and what advantages or disadvantages it will gain from Community in the short and long term. This study was conducted by looking at the currently written literature and also by interpreting data collected from the World Bank and Trading Economics databases. The analysis shows that if Somalia's entry into the East African Community (EAC) is accelerated, it will rank as the sixth most productive nation in the EAC, producing only 2% of the Community's total output, and will not contribute much. Additionally, it will not be an economically vigorous member of the East African community. As a result, Somalia must strengthen its economy and create a peaceful environment based on stable policies before joining this community. The production factories destroyed during the civil war must be restored. Education systems must be improved to raise an educated generation that can help increase the productivity of the country. However, if Somalia wants to achieve significant economic growth in the short and long term, top priority should be given to building economic infrastructure and fighting corruption.
