| Summary: | Broad beliefs about the economics of developing countries and of the development process have changed considerably due largely to changes in the world and in the application of economic policies within developing countries. The extreme divergence of experience among regions of the world has also made it more and more questionable whether it even makes sense to think of a single and distinctive economics of developing countries. This textbook presents a concise and up-to-date examination of the field of development economics, bringing together historical perspectives, current issues and policy implications. |

road beliefs about the economics of developing countries and of the
development process have changed considerably since the subject became of
wide interest in the
1950s.
This was largely due to changes in the world and in
the application of economic policies within developing countries. Subjects such
as environment, gender, poverty, famine and globalization have come to be of increasingly
important public interest. The extreme divergence of experience among regions of the
world has also made it more and more questionable whether it even makes sense to think
of a single and distinctive economics of developing countries .
This textbook presents a concise and up-to-date examination of the field of development
economics, bringing together historical perspectives, current issues and policy
implications. Each chapter can be read as a stand-alone unit, or as part of the wider
economic debates presented throughout the book.
Features include:
■
Current case examples and data in every chapter
Graphs, charts, tables and photographs illustrate the text and help create a
striking visual presentation
_
Questions at the end of every chapter to consolidate learning of the material and
encourage students to think critically
This book is suitable for upper level undergraduate and postgraduate courses in
Development Economics or related subjects.
Anthony Clunies-Ross is Professor Emeritus in Economics at the University of
Strathclyde in Glasgow. He has also taught on short courses in India and Tanzania.
Professor
David Forsyth
is a Development Economist who has worked in a wide range
of developing countries over the last three decades and has published extensively.
Mozammel Huq is Senior Lecturer and Associate Director of the Developing Countries
Research Unit in the Department of Economics at the University of Strathclyde. He has
worked with a large number of institutions in both developed and developing countries.
