In this collection of essays David A Dyker explores some of the most difficult and fascinating aspects of the process of transition from autocratic ?real socialism? to a capitalism that is sometimes democratic, sometimes authoritarian. The stress is on the economic dimension of transformation, but the author sets the economic drama firmly within a political economy framework and a historical perspective. Trends in key economic variables are analysed against the background of the struggle between different social and political groups for power and command over resources. While the book pays due attention to topical issues like EU enlargement, the underlying perspective is a long-term one. Transition is viewed not as a set of once-and-for-all institutional changes or a process of short-term stabilisation, but as a historic opportunity to solve the inherited problem of poverty and underdevelopment in Central-East Europe and the former Soviet Union. The book ends with a critical assessment of how economics, as a discipline, has coped with the challenge of that historic opportunity.

Disparities between the economic development of nations have widened throughout the twentieth century, and they show no sign of closing. In the nineteenth century, the economic potential of developed countries was three times that of the rest of the world. Today the gap is twenty times greater, and the trend is increasing. In this provocative reexamination of theories of accelerated development, or "catching up," Vladislav L. Inozemtsev traces the evolution of thinking about how countries lagging behind can most swiftly move forward, and assesses their prospects for success in this effort. Inozemtsev reviews the experience of the Soviet Union, as well as the recent experience of Japan, China, and Southeast Asia. He finds that those countries that have moved forward most rapidly have successfully adapted new technology to old processes. But even then, they face daunting odds, as they grapple with the need to change their population's ideas and behavior. And in the 1990s, their rates of development have noticeably declined. "Catching Up" assesses prospects for successful application of theories of accelerated development in the global economy. Inozemtsev's pessimistic conclusion is that rapid industrial progress is not achievable in the information society of the twenty-first century. Inozemtsev reaches this conclusion after reviewing theories of accelerated development thinking from the diverse viewpoints of the 1940s and 1950s, to the more intensive ideological polarization of the 1960s. Inozemtsev believes it will be impossible for non-Western nations to "catch up" with the West because of their inability to generate or control information and knowledge.

"A wide-ranging, stimulating, and unconventional set of essays on the state of economics and economic policy. Everyone will find something of interest in these reflections." – DANI RODRIK, Professor of International Political Economy, Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, President of the International Economic Association, USA "A wide-ranging group of essays on current issues of economic policy, informed by theory, and enlightened by the perspective of an astute observer in post-Soviet Georgia—with excellent views facing both East and West." – JAMES K. GALBRAITH, Lloyd M. Bentsen Jr. Chair in Government/Business Relations and Professor of Government, The University of Texas at Austin, USA "Professor Vladimer Papava has lived through major upheavals such as a post-socialist transition and a global financial crisis, keeping an eye on the developments from his vantage point in Tbilisi, Georgia. The stimulating essays that have resulted from his observations, collected in this volume, share a heterodox stance, one that showcases appreciation for—and creative destruction of—mainstream economics. Economists and other social scientists will be introduced to novel, promising approaches, which themselves derive from an enviably wide-ranging examination of the international literature. Just as we learn in Professor Papava’s essays how to avoid a post-socialist 'necroeconomy' (where production of goods with no demand continues), the volume itself helps protect us against a necroeconomic scientific discipline. May the unconventional become conventional!" – JAMES A. LEITZEL, Executive Director of Public Policy Studies, Harris School of Public Policy, University of Chicago, USA "A book to be read and studied as one digs through a mine in search of many gold veins, in this case formed through the author's intellectual curiosity, long-standing scholarly work, and experience." – SERGIO MARIOTTI, Professor Emeritus, Dept. of Management, Economics and Industrial Engineering, Politecnico di Milano, Italy

This book sheds new light on the advancement of various industries in developing Asian countries through an application and re-examination of catch-up industrialization theory. With contributors presenting their own perspectives on the progression of a range of different industries in Asia, this volume provokes readers to reconsider their current understanding of industrialization in latecomer countries. More specifically, the chapters discuss Taiwan's semiconductor industry, Korea's steel industry, and Malaysia's palm oil industry, amongst others. The authors also explore the 'catch-down' innovation strategy in China and India. Varieties and Alternatives of Catching-up provides a thorough analysis of the strategies employed by numerous Asian countries to radically transform their low-income agricultural economies to middle-income industrialized ones. This book is essential reading for researchers and scholars interested in Asian economic development.

How has human development evolved during the last 150 years of globalization and economic growth? How has human development been distributed across countries? How do developing countries compare to developed countries? Do social systems matter for wellbeing? Are there differences in the performance of developing regions over time? Employing a capabilities approach, Human Development and the Path to Freedom addresses these key questions in the context of modern economic growth and globalization from c.1870 to the present. Leandro Prados de la Escosura shows that health, access to knowledge, standards of living, and civil and political freedom can substitute for GDP per head as more accurate measures of our wellbeing.
