The authors in this book regard the process of economic expansion
as a non-homogeneous and multifaceted phenomenon, which has deeply
affected human welfare, and cultural, social and political change.
The book is a bridge between the theorists (Rosenstein-Rodan,
Lewis, Myrdal, and Hirschmann) who in the post-war period analyzed
regional inequalities, structural change and dualism, and the
modern literature on economic growth. The latter has emphasized the
existence of multiple equilibria, bifurcations and various types of
dynamic complexity, and clarified the conditions for the emergence
of phenomena such as cumulative causation, path dependence and
hysteresis. These are the typical ingredients of structural change,
economic development or underdevelopment. Investigating the
'mechanisms of economic development', this book will be of great
interest to researchers and postgraduate students, especially those
oriented towards the study of structural and geographical aspects
of economic growth and development.
