Professor Ian Livingstone is one of a small group of British
development economists who have achieved international renown and
recognition. The objective of this book is to pay tribute to his
life's work, particularly those aspects which related to key but
challenging development issues. These issues include, at a broad
level, the understanding of the economic forces determining the
development of low income economies, more detailed micro work on
agricultural development (irrigation in particular),
decentralisation and local government finance, small scale
enterprises, and large scale manufacturing development. Themes
running through his work relate to his over-riding concern for
rigour and for socio-economic justice. Ian Livingstone consistently
used the traditional tools of economic analysis as a means to
increase understanding of development issues - in a way which was,
itself, just as radical as the contributions of political
scientists and sociologists. This volume has been produced with
similar aims.
