These essays look at the origins of development geography and the debates between modernization theorists and radicals that took shape in the 1970s, and include key research on four major areas in development studies: gender and households, development alternatives and identities, resource conflicts and political ecology and globalization and resistance.
The volume brings together twenty-five of the most influential articles published in the field of development geography since 1960. The first part looks at the origins of development geography and the debates between modernization theorists and radicals that took shape in the 1970s. Thereafter, the book is organized thematically. Geographers have made key contributions to development studies in four major areas, all of which are represented here and include gender and households, development alternatives and identities, resource conflicts and political ecology and globalization and resistance. The book ends with three broad-ranging essays by leading figures in the field.
