Overview

A new edition of our bestselling development text, Geographies of Development remains the first textbook to offer an innovative and comprehensive approach to the subject, written by a team of world-renowned development specialists. The authors have considerable teaching experience in this area and collectively bring first-hand research expertise from: North, West and southern Africa; Asia and the Pacific, and the Caribbean/South America. - Every chapter is fully revised, and includes a new introduction and postscript. - Focus is placed on globalisation, postmodernity and development deologies, which ties in with current courses and sets the book apart from its traditional counterparts. - The new edition covers recent changes in both theory (post-development, anti-development etc) and practice (anti-capitalist demonstrations, IMF, GM crops etc). - Most of the changes are in line with suggestions made by reviewers such as greater emphasis on globalisation, more on current events, more depth on cultural aspects of the field.
