Development as a Societal Problem in a Colonial Setting

W. W. Rostow

Chapter 10 in From Classical Economics to Development Economics, 1994, pp 144-172 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This essay focuses on the writings of three pre-1945 analysts of development — Vera Anstey, R. H. Tawney, and Joyce Cary. In so doing, it presents variations on the theme of colonialism and development plus further reflections on two observations made rather tersely in my Theorists of Economic Growth Since David Hume.1
