Development and Policy Dialogue: Selected Essays

We live in a time when the largest numbers of people are being lifted out of absolute poverty in a relatively short time span in human history. This is happening in Asia, Africa and other parts of the world. This is a time when the understanding of development and the topics for development studies are enriched at an unprecedented pace. This is also a time when the dynamic and thriving economic and social changes in developing countries become inspiration for each other or even for the developed world. The experience and efforts of the developing countries to achieve prosperity, social inclusiveness and good governance have gained greater attention than ever. The diverse paths and innovative approaches taken in many of these countries become important cases of study in this book.
