Synopsis
This comprehensive new text surveys the leading theories and models of economic and social development. These include: sociological, economic, neo-Marxist, poststructuralist, feminist and radical democratic approaches. It also explores a range of development models including determinism, modernization, dependency and neoliberalism. Reaching conclusions at odds with much recent literature this book is critical of neo-liberal, market driven economic growth arguing that an alternative democratic form of development remains a viable possibility.
