Description
This accessible text provides both an assessment of the current state of development theory and an extensive survey of the impact of evolving policies and practices throughout the developing world. Ripley critically traces the evolution of development theory from its strong statistic orientation in the early postwar period, through the neoclassical phase, to the present emerging consensus on people-centered development. New to the third edition is a chapter on "post-development" thought, as well as increased attention to the challenges posed by weak states and by critical environmental issues. Using a wide range of examples, Ripley shows where and how various approaches to development have worked or failed continuing to confront the question of why development remains so far out of reach for so many poor countries.
