Summary, etc. | With unusual clarity and range, this book answers these questions by offering a retrospective appraisal of the development record and a prescriptive analysis of the urgent policy measures that remain to be undertaken. It does so by revealing the interplay between the development experience of poor countries and the evolution of thinking by economists on what policies these countries should pursue to accelerate their development.<br/>Part I focuses on the policy of the inter national community and provides a critical assessment of the achievements and disappointments in the development record. <br/>Part II chronicles the vigorous intellectual debate among development economists. It unfolds the changing views of economists on development strategy by explaining the "Old Growth Economics," the "Early Development Economics" that took shape in the 1950's, the subsequent revision in mainstream development thought, and the radical critique of re cent years. <br/>Part III looks to the future and specifies a number of policy issues on which economists must now concentrate if this appointments of the past are to be overcome. |
