Rather than being a book about 'development' per se, this work,
first published in 1975, is instead a book about ideas about
development, designed for those drawn by a concern over social
injustice into the development field. In a selective review of
theory, which gives particular emphasis to the spatial dimension in
Western, Marxist and neo-Marxist thought, Harold Brookfield traces
the evolution of ideas about world inequality and the problem of
development from the days before the 'underdeveloped countries'
were considered to be a major problem, through the years dominated
by 'economic growth', to the more searching approaches of the
contemporary era. The central argument of the book is that
development is a 'totality', which cannot properly be understood by
separation into parts. The 'developed' and 'underdeveloped'
countries constitute one interdependent system, and change in one
cannot be understood without consideration of the other.
