商品詳細
解説
Development was an idealistic mission in the postwar period, pursued with great optimism and generosity. Now, against a rising tide of mass poverty, refugees and social injustice, many developing countries are worse off than in 1970. Ozay Mehmet blames this failure on Western theories and prescriptions. He identifies the mainstream economic theories and demonstrates that they are eurocentric and unsuitable for the developing world. The book concludes with an appraisal of the current situation and an examination of the future agenda for development studies.
