This thoroughly revised second edition contains both new and extensively updated contributions from a new generation of scholars, providing an expansive overview of alternative theories of economic growth. Current important controversies are reviewed, including public debt dynamics and the relationship between growth and climate change.

The expert contributors provide comprehensive discussions on subjects including the relationship between distribution and growth, the nature and role of technical change and human capital accumulation, and international dimensions of growth. They further highlight the intersections with political economy, feminist economics and the economics of climate change, as well as the link between growth and both public and private (household and corporate) finance. Building on the first edition, the new and updated chapters add to and further develop existing alternative theories of economic growth.

The thought-provoking insights offered by the book's thorough analysis will ensure this is an excellent resource for economists, graduate students, and advanced undergraduate students of classical, evolutionary and Post-Keynesian economics.
