Economic Growth In Developing Countries Hardcover

India

Mohan L. Lakhera

Economic growth across countries during the last 30 years or so has displayed 'dual' divergence between developed and developing countries, as well as among developing countries. The structural transformation in these countries has been either slow or of an anomalous nature. This illuminating text presents a systematic analysis of the deprivations and inequalities across courtiers and argues for change through structural transformation, diversified manufacturing, productivity growth and transport infrastructure development. Lakhera unveils avenues of growth for low-income economies to climb the ladder to achieve sustained high growth. The study suggests a new paradigm of development to catch-up with the developed world.
