Sustainable Governance for Sustainable Development

Abstract: Abstract After the end of the Second World War, the wide gap between rich and poor countries continued for decades. Both capitalist and Marxist scholars observed the phenomenon with pessimistic opinions about the possibility of significant development in the lagging nations. Capitalist economists argued that the Third-World countries lacked the basic requirements for successful economic growth – such as capital, productive human resources, natural endowment, technology and competent government. Some Marxists attributed the backwardness of the poor nations to their dependency on more developed, advanced industrial countries.
