This book draws together the most authoritative articles on
development economics published in the past few years, is aimed at
undergraduate level and is suitable for students with little or no
background in economics.
The main themes include poverty, foreign aid, agriculture and
human capital, with essays by such luminaries as Amartya Sen,
Jeffrey Sachs, Jagdish Bhagwati, Joseph Stiglitz, Paul Romer, Dani
Rodrik, William Easterly, Robert Barro, Kenneth Arrow, Hernando de
Soto, Daron Acemoglu, Muhammad Yunus, Anne Krueger, Abhijit
Banerjee, Esther Duflo, Michael Kremer and Martin Feldstein.
The reader focuses on the most recent and up-to-date
contributions to the field of development economics. Instead of
collecting "classic" contributions which are already available
through many sources the articles chosen reflect recent
developments in the discipline (for instance, in the area of
geography and development) and include contributions that address
recent events (the dramatic resurgence of a debt relief
movement).
The Development Economics Reader should be an invaluable
resource for all students of the discipline.
