Synopsis
With contributions from 35 leading economists, this forward-looking book explores the future of development economics against the background of the past half-century of development thought and practice. Outstanding representatives of the past two generations of development economists assess development thinking at the turn of the century and look to the unsettled questions confronting the next generation.
The volume offers a thorough analysis of the broad range of issues involved in development economics, and it is especially timely in its critique of what is needed in development theory and policy to reduce poverty. An overriding issue is whether in the future 'development economics' is to be regarded simply as applied economics or whether the nature and scope of development economics will constitute a need for a special development theory to supplement general economic theory.
'Frontiers of Development Economics' is an ideal reference for all those working in the international development community.

Review
"The internal consistency and completeness of each essay and of the whole volume, the simplicity with which complex interdisciplinary arguments are exposed, and the rich bibliographies that accompany each chapter, make this volume an invaluable manual for graduate students specializing in development or international economics, and informative and stimulating reading for any economist interested in the field."--The Review of Political Economy
