Descripción
Sumario:This book presents a survey of industrialization in developing countries since 1945, as well as offering a study of the predominant theories of industrial growth in the Third World. This authoritative text analyses: the possibility of different paths to industrialization, the dominant Neoclassical view and the challenges to this orthodoxy, the importance of small scale industry, and the importance of technological change for industrialization. At a time when globalization is becoming an increasingly controversial phenomenon, this book offers a powerful argument that, despite potential difficulties with market access, integration with world markets offers developing countries the opportunity for future growth via industrialization. "Industrialization and Globalization" will be vital reading for students and academics involved in development economics as well as being indispensable to policy-makers.
