Description
This major textbook, first published in 1997 and reprinted for the fourth time in 2004, is specifically written for students in development studies. It provides a comprehensive and multi-disciplinary picture of development research over the past generation, and is organised around four major themes: economic development and underdevelopment, politics and the state, socio-economic development and the state, and civil society and the development process.
