Economic growth and socio-economic development are particuliarly
important for developing countries, and the construction industry
plays a central role in driving both of these. Traditionally the
issues faced have been assumed to be merely offshoots of those
encountered in industrialised nations and are usually discussed
only in this context. In addition, research in construction
management and economics has generally failed to take proper
account of the unique or highly emphasised characteristics of the
industries in developing countries, or their economic and social
environment. This volume challenges underlying assumptions and
focuses on the distinct characteristics of construction in
developing countries. In so doing it considers the issues from the
perspective of the developing countries themselves to present a
strong contemporary picture for researchers. It forms a companion
volume to New Perspectives on Construction in Developing Countries
which provides an update on the generic subjects relating to the
construction industry in developing countries, and covers new
concepts and issues.
