Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book presents development strategies and lessons based on a large range of 'success' countries across the developing world. In addition to the country cases, it presents regional and overall syntheses that cover orthodox vs. heterodox policies; the importance of capability, primary exports, diversification and financing; managing diversity; the role of institutions and governance; and human development.The book reveals much diversity insuccessful development strategies offered by the various select countries: for example, the 'disinterested-government' political economy of China; the democratically supported, high-service-sectordevelopment approach of India; the 'Washington-Consensus-based' reforms of Ghana and China; the diversification strategies of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain and Oman; the dynamic orthodox-heterodox strategy of Malaysia and Vietnam; the effective natural-resource management of Botswana, Oman, Bahrain and the UAE; the social-sector underpinnings of development in Costa Rica and Tunisia; and the democratic political system of managing diversity in India. This refreshing approach tostudying development will interest researchers, teachers, students, development practitioners and policymakers alike. This book presents a global sample of country cases of successful development strategies, and seeks to delineate the root causes of success: initial conditions, local and international factors, relative contributions by domestic and external agents, as well as the prognosis of challenges for the future.
