| Summary, etc. | Economic Development, Ninth Edition, marries the latest thinking in development economics with the clear and comprehensive approach that has been so well received in previous editions. The text places the established themes of early editions into today's global setting, and introduces current topics such as the Millennium Development Goals, complementarities and coordination failure, industrialization strategy, new strategies for poverty reduction, the capabilities approach to well-being, the central role of health, new thinking on the role of cities, and the economic character and comparative advantage of nongovernmen-tal organizations in economic development. This book also emphasizes the inter-national context for development, including the implications of the rapid pace of globalization and the rise of China, the continuing crisis of sub-Saharan Africa, and the conflict over funding for debt relief and poverty reduction. We have en-tirely rewritten the end-of-chapter analytical case studies for this edition; most cover new topics and each case builds on and illustrates the central topics of the chapter. While there is legitimate disagreement about which topics in economic development deserve the greatest emphasis, we have structured the presentation of the text so as to provide instructors with considerable leeway in selecting lecture topics. |
