Reconstructing Development Theory: International Inequality, Institutional Reform and Social Emancipation

The book provides a systematic assessment of the evolution of development theory, its relationship to orthodox social science analysis and the liberal pluralistic orthodoxy that now dominates the mainstream approach to international development, showing how we can transcend its failure to address some key problems of late and uneven development

The global economic system is failing. Third world nations are saddled with debts they cannot pay thus threatening the world banking system. Europe is suffering from an overvalued dollar and the U.S. is fast becoming the largest debtor nation in the world. The World Economy Since The War studies global economics since 1945 from a world systems perspective. The author integrates specific research on particular aspects of the world economy into a unified, coherent discussion, demonstrating the ways in which these seemingly disparate aspects are in fact related. Brett's work points out that the global economic system is in need of major restructuring. In his carefully considered and theoretically informed work, he suggests a democratically controlled global oriented international planning mechanism to rationally and equitably distribute resources.

Colonialism and Underdevelopment in East Africa: The Politics of Economic Change 1919-1939

This book provides a detailed analysis of the political and economic theories of colonialism in East Africa. It reviews the politics of aid, budgets and markets, and examines the impact of economic policy at a local level using Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika as case histories. Dr. Brett concludes that British colonial policy was not just a muddled empirical resolution of different interests, but a reconciliation and adjustment of those interests within an overall and ideologically agreed framework. He maintains that the efforts of this policy were inimical to the economic development of East Africa.
