9789766402235: The Economics of Development in Small Countries: With Special Reference to the Caribbean

Synopsis

The Economics of Development in Small Countries deals with the special problems faced in analysing the economics of small countries and seeks to apply these concepts to West Indian economies. Demas's thesis is that economic development and the achievement of self-sustained growth cannot be considered in isolation from the size of the country. This edition includes a new introduction by Sir Hilary McD. Beckles, in which he considers the groundbreaking work in the context of nearly forty-five years of regional development and finds the book as relevant and important today as it was in 1965.
