Development Economics and Structuralist Macroeconomics: Essays in Honor of Lance Taylor

Lance Taylor is widely considered to be one of the pre-eminent development economists in the world and is known for his work on development planning, macroeconomics of development, stabilization policy, and the global economy. He has also been the major force behind structuralist economics, which is seen by many to be a major alternative to orthodox development economics and policy prescriptions. The essays in this volume, written by well-known scholars in their own right, make contributions to each of these areas while honoring the contributions made by Taylor. Professional economists, researchers and policy makers interested in development economics, political economy, global political economy and viable alternatives to mainstream thought will find this collection a valuable addition to their libraries.
