Summary: Informal sector has acquired a central role in the theory and practise of development since late 1960s, the historical phase, which was characterized by the reawakened interest in distribution and of the awareness of "crisis of planning". A particularly striking and much cited aspect of this growing interest has been the involvement of "reformist" academicians who were previously hostile to what they considered a social evil, but are now committed to planning for the informal sector as an "instrument of effective development strategy." An alternative appraoch proceeds on the lines of mode of production analysis and attempts to explain this sector in terms of relations of production and exchange.
