United Nations' sale no.: E.08. II. A.8. Includes bibliographical references (pages 201-218) and index. Growth and development trends, 1960-2006 -- Structural change and economic growth -- Has trade integration caused greater divergence? -- Macroeconomic policies and growth divergence -- Governance, institutions and growth divergence. "In Uneven Economic Development, leading economists and development experts examine the causes and implications of international economic divergences. This comprehensive and timely book reviews economic growth and structural change patterns since the 1960s, before critically reviewing the respective role and impact of trade liberalization, macroeconomic policies, governance and institutions on comparative national economic performance, particularly in developing countries. With country studies included to exemplify the issues at hand, this is a definitive guide to identifying, addressing and perhaps even finding a solution to this global phenomenon."--Jacket. |
