This book provides an accessible introduction to the field of development studies, examining how the concept of "development" emerged after the Second World War and evolved into a multidisciplinary field concerned with poverty reduction, economic growth, human development, and social justice.
Jeffrey Haynes explores the major theories and debates that have shaped development thinking, including modernization, dependency theory, globalization, political economy, governance, and sustainable development. The book analyzes the factors that influence development in poorer regions of the world and discusses contemporary challenges such as inequality, conflict, environmental degradation, gender issues, human rights, and the role of religion in development.
