Recenzii
`If it's a lucid, concise intellectual history of development theory you're looking for - one with originality and political bite, you'll find it in T[um]ornquist's fine book' - James C Scott, Yale University
`This book introduces the student to the politics of development in the postcolonial world by familiarising them with the main debates on the subject. I can think of no better way of doing it' - Mahmood Mamdani, University of Cape Town
`Through a wide ranging critique of influential conceptualisations of the 'Third World', and by focussing on the symbiosis between politics and development, Tornquist opens the way for a fresh understanding of how late developing societies can be democratised' - Neera Chandhoke, University of Delhi
`A pleasant, wide-ranging and ambitious textbook Olle Tornquist has written. It is pleasant because of the authors frankness about his own preferences combined with an openess towards diverging views; it is wide-ranging in the theoretical space it covers; and it is ambitious in the way it proposes a "best practice" within the study of politics and development....I recommend the book to anyone interested in entering a stimulating discussion on the subject' - The European Journal of Development Research

Descriere
This textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to third world politics and development.
The author outlines the difficulties in the various analytical approaches to the study of development within political science; presents a critical overview of each of the main schools of thought and explores the contemporary issue of democratization to illustrate how students can apply a framework for research and critically develop a perspective on their own.
