Economic Development and the Division of Labor
Wiley-Blackwell (Verlag)
978-0-631-22004-6 (ISBN)
Inframarginal Analysis vs. Marginal Analysis is presented as a consistent theoretical framework throughout.
Shows how the relationship of Inframarginal Analysis to Marginal Analysis has influenced the shift back to an interest in Classical Economics from Neoclassical Economics with regard to economic development.
Allows economists to reduce their overall reliance on marginal analysis, which may be less relevant to development economics than it is to the economics of development countries.
Brings considerable analytic machinery to bear on important problems.
A focus on institutions and transaction costs that is very relevant to development economics.
Offers a thorough analysis of trade (CHs. 3 - 7) and macroeconomics (CHs. 16 - 19), both of which are not dealth with in depth by comparable textbooks.
