Economic Development, Economic Growth and Income Distribution

Edited by Amitava Krishna Dutt, Nora Lustig, Juan Carlos Moreno-Brid and José Antonio Ocampo

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Adopting a structuralist approach, this informative book discusses the international obstacles to economic growth and the role of individual sectors including manufacturing and services in political economies. It also examines key issues, such as the determinants of economic growth through capital accumulation and technological change. Leading experts shed light on the importance of aggregate demand in relation to trade and capital flows, addressing socio-economic inequality and regional divergence.
