John Lodewijks

Journal of the Asia Pacific Economy, 2007, vol. 12, issue 4, 429-451

Abstract: Helen Hughes was a founding member of the International Advisory Board of the Journal of the Asia Pacific Economy. She has been a leading thinker in development economics, especially in Asia Pacific economies. Helen Hughes was one of the few development economists to have foreseen the rapid transformation of East Asian economies in the 1960s. This interview with Helen Hughes, Distinguished Fellow of the Economic Society of Australia, was conducted in September 2006. It is a characteristically frank and open account of her career, her achievements in the profession and work at the World Bank.
