About this product
Product Information
The book provides a systematic assessment of the evolution of development theory, its relationship to orthodox social science analysis and the liberal pluralistic orthodoxy that now dominates the mainstream approach to international development, showing how we can transcend its failure to address some key problems of late and uneven development

Reviews
'This work is a remarkable intellectual achievement, synthesizing sociological, economic and political grand theory with global history over the last couple of centuries, and applying the result to a persuasive reconstruction of development analysis' - M. Crawford Young,Professor Emeritus of Political Science, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 'This work is a remarkable intellectual achievement, synthesizing sociological, economic and political grand theory with global history over the last couple of centuries, and applying the result to a persuasive reconstruction of development analysis' - M. Crawford Young, Professor Emeritus of Political Science, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 'This work is a remarkable intellectual achievement, synthesizing sociological, economic and political grand theory with global history over the last couple of centuries, and applying the result to a persuasive reconstruction of development analysis.' - M. Crawford Young, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA 'By reasserting the centrality of development theory to understanding and, more importantly, countering the current dismal realities of global poverty and inequality, this breathtakingly erudite book constitutes a much-needed antidote to the superficiality of much that is currently written about development policy and practice.' David Lewis, London School of Economics. 'In this ambitious and persuasive tour de force, Teddy Brett offers a new synthetic paradigm that transcends the limits of both structuralist and neo-liberal theory. It gives new life to development theory and is an important contribution to the revitalization of development studies.' Edward Webster, University of the Witwatersrand '[C]lear, insightful, and innovative [this book] will certainly spark several debates… [and] will surely appeal to Latin American audiences.' Francisco Gutiérrez SanÃn, Universidad Nacional de Colombia 'Since its inception, development theory has constantly searched for one 'master' concept to explain both development and underdevelopment. Such concepts have, however, flattened out the historically shaped experiences of different countries. This work, focussing as it does on specific contexts and trajectories, makes an invaluable contribution to the debate, and guides it in another direction.' Neera Chandhoke, University of Delhi

A pleasant overall experience! They had a rather hard-to-find book on Persian calligraphy for a good price and free shipping. The status said shipped before any tracking was uploaded so I messaged them the next day to ask them to provide a tracking number. They never responded, but tracking was added to my eBay details that night. It took about five days to get here to Los Angeles from LaVergne, Tennessee and came in a strong, secure envelope. The book was in good condition and as described.
