Description
This textbook survey is a comprehensive, systematic treatise on development economics, combining classical political economy, modern institutional theory, and development issues. The treatment is global, although the organizing principle is the East Asian development experience. Quantitative characteristics of Third World development in terms of population growth, natural resource depletion, capital accumulation, and technological change are outlined; but the central approach is comparative institutional analysis.
