Some of the greatest thinkers in the history of economic thought
have been instrumental in advancing the study of development
economics. In this volume, leading scholars are brought together to
illuminate this tradition, with particular emphasis on the question
of growth and development. Divided into two parts, this collection
offers a blend of papers of history of economic thought and
development economics, and suggests that classical political
economy - that strand of thought which goes from Physiocracy to
Smith and to Ricardo and Marx - has a precise vision and indeed a
precise model of long term development. This book: examines the
influence that has been exerted by both pre-classical and classical
thought on modern day development economics provides a synthetic
analysis of the classical vision of growth and development from the
mercantilist era to physiocracy examines Adam Smith's contribution
to growth theory explores Marxian thinking and ideas, and the
political developments that gave rise to state functions in
post-war theory. Including contributions by well known authors such
as Eltis, Murphy and Kurz, this significant volume by one of the
premier historians of economic thought will be a valuable resource
for postgraduates and professionals in the fields of economic
history and political economy.
