Synopsis:

Contains approximately 30 representative and exciting articles by leading academics in the field on the nature of contemporary developmental issues. Using the 'development debate' as its organizing theme, this accessible work discusses such topics as theories and models of development, survival strategies and the weapons of the weak and new directions including democratization, environmental sustainability and citizenship.

Review: ...will be required reading for all undergraduates and Masters students concerned with development studies. (Geography, Vol 81, Part 2, April 1996)

Taken together, the texts selected and Corbridge's introductory remarks do present a broad overview of the field of develpment studies. (European Journal of Develoopmental Research)

The editor's own comments and reviews of central debates are excellent and reflect intimate knowledge of the field and the competing positions and theories. (European Journal of Developmental Research)

An excellent update of earlier readers. (Development and Change)
