Description

Growth and Equity focuses on some persistent problems facing developing countries: the narrowness of the domestic market, the disproportionality between sectors, premature migration, and the persistence of dualism--problems with which the Lewis-Kuznets approach has failed to adequately address. Datta considers the feasibility of an alternative to "development from below," supporting his argument with district-level data from India.
