Summary:
Peet (geography, Clark U.) and Hartwick (geography, Framingham State College) have rewritten their 1999 work such that, in addition to addressing evolving global economic realities, it is now a more critical survey of the main theories of socioeconomic development. They address conventional theories of development in chapters covering classical, neoclassical, Keynesian, and neoliberal economics, as well modernization theory. They next present chapters on Marxism, socialism, and development; post structuralism, postcolonialism, and postdevelopmentalism; feminist theories of development; and critical modernism and democratic development.
