The Elgar Companion to Development Studies is an innovative and
unique reference book that includes original contributions covering
development economics as well as development studies broadly
defined. This major new Companion brings together an international
panel of experts from varying backgrounds who discuss theoretical,
ethical and practical issues relating to economic, social,
cultural, institutional, political and human aspects of development
in poor countries. It also includes a selection of intellectual
biographies of leading development thinkers. While the Companion is
organised along the lines of an encyclopaedia, each of its 136
entries provide more depth and discussion than the average
reference book. Its entries are also extremely diverse: they draw
on different social science disciplines, incorporate various mixes
of theoretical and applied work, embrace a variety of methodologies
and represent different views of the world. The Elgar Companion to
Development Studies will therefore appeal to students, scholars,
researchers, policymakers and practitioners in the filed of
development as well as the interested layman.
