Readings in Development Economics : Micro-Theory Volume 1, Paperback / softback Book

Readings in Development Economics : Micro-Theory Volume 1 Paperback / softback

Part of the The MIT Press series

Paperback / softback

Description

Volume I of this two-volume set focuses on theoretical work. These two volumes of readings attempt to bring some degree of structure to a relatively diffuse field. Because of the sheer volume of high-quality work in development economics research, they are intended as a sampling of work at the frontier of the field, rather than as a comprehensive overview.Volume I: Micro-Theory focuses on theoretical work.

Topics covered include sharecropping as a principle-agent problem, fragmented duopolies, credit market imperfections, poverty traps, peer monitoring in credit cooperatives, coordination failures, human capital accumulation as an engine of growth, and environmental issues in development.
