商品描述
Originating in the Nineteenth Century, the European idea of development was shaped around the premise that the West possessed progressive characteristics that the East lacked. As a result of this perspective, many alternative development discourses originating in the East were often overlooked and forgotten. Indian Economics is but one example. By recovering thought from the margins, Relocating Development Economics exposes useful new ways of viewing development. It looks at how an Indian tradition in economic thought emerged from a group of Indian economists in the late Nineteenth Century who questioned dominant European economic ideas on development and agricultural economics. This book shows how the first generation of modern Indian economists pushed at the boundaries of existing theories to produce reformulations that better fit their subcontinent and opens up discursive space to find new ways of thinking about regress, progress and development.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
源於19世紀的歐洲發展觀念,其基本前提是西方擁有進步性特徵,而東方則缺乏。由於這種觀點,許多源於東方的替代性發展論述常常被忽視和遺忘。印度經濟學就是其中一個例子。《重新定位發展經濟學》通過恢復邊緣思想,揭示了觀察發展的有用新方式。它探討了印度經濟思想傳統如何在19世紀末的一群印度經濟學家中形成,他們對主流的歐洲經濟發展和農業經濟學觀念提出了質疑。本書展示了現代印度經濟學家的第一代如何突破現有理論的界限,提出更適合他們的次大陸的改革方案,並開啟了辯論空間,以尋找關於退步、進步和發展的新思維方式。
