This important volume brings together seventeen major essays
written by A.P. Thirlwall over the last twenty five years in the
field of growth and development.Many of these papers make
pioneering contributions, such as the author's formalization of
Kaldor's two-sector growth model, his models of growth constrained
by the balance of payments, his testing of the IMF's supply side
approach to devaluation, and his development of models of
inflation, population and economic growth. Other essays are more
reflective and eclectic, such as papers on Keynes and economic
development, on the terms of trade and international debt, as well
as an essay in praise of development economics. The volume also
includes an extensive introductory essay in which Professor
Thirlwall explains how he became a development economist. The
Economics of Growth and Development will be welcomed by economists
and policy makers for presenting an authoritative volume of
Professor Thirlwall's most important essays and papers in
development economics, some of which are in foreign journals and
not readily available in many university libraries.
