This book analyzes the Philippine economy from the 1960s to the
1980s. During this period, the benefits of economic growth
conspicuously failed to "trickle down". Despite rising per capita
income, broad sectors of the Filipino population experienced
deepening poverty.;Professor Boyce traces this outcome to the
country's economic and political structure and focuses on three
elements of the government's development strategy: the "green
revolution" in rice agriculture, the primacy accorded to export
agriculture and forestry, and massive external borrowing.;James
Boyce is the author of "Agrarian Impasse in Bengal" and co-author
of "A Quiet Violence: View from a Bangladesh Village".
