Weiss, John, 1948-
Industrialisation and globalisation : theory and evidence from developing countries / John Weiss. - London : Routledge, 2002. - x, 222 p. : ill. ; 25 cm.
Includes bibliographical references (p. [205]-218) and index.
The author presents a survey of industrialisation in developing countries since 1945, as well as offering a study of the predominant theories of industrial growth in the Third World. This authoritative text analyses the possibility of different paths to industrialisation, the dominant Neoclassical view and the challenges to this orthodoxy, the importance of small scale industry, and the importance of technological change for industrialisation. The book offers a powerful argument that, despite potential difficulties with market access, integration with world markets offer developing countries the opportunity for future growth via industrialisation. This book will be vital reading for students and academics involved in development economics as well as being indispensible to policy-makers.
