Description
Diverse Development Paths and Structural Transformation in the Escape from Poverty by Martin Andersson and Tobias Axelsson offers a comprehensive analysis of development pathways in Asia, Latin America, and Sub-Saharan Africa. The authors examine how these countries can catch up with more developed nations, drawing on growth performance data over the last five decades. The book highlights the diversity of development paths and provides valuable lessons for addressing the complex question of development. By acknowledging that development is a dynamic process, dependent on specific circumstances, the authors argue that structural change - particularly agricultural transformation - is crucial for sustained catch-up. This insightful volume enriches our understanding of economic backwardness and successful pathways to escape it by analyzing current growth processes in developing countries.
