Broad 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; due largely 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.
