| Opplysninger | "Why are some countries rich and others poor? Shaping the Developing World addresses the fundamental question of what 'development' actually is and examines social, political, and economic developments around the world. Andy Baker adeptly uses a threefold framework of the global North, the global South, and the Natural World to categorize and analyze the factors that cause underdevelopment-from the consequences of colonialism, deficient domestic institutions, and gender inequality to the effects of globalization, geography, and environmental degradation. This book is an introduction to the contested field of development and relevant to students studying geography, sociology, political science, economics, gender studies, and anthropology. The Second Edition has been updated to incorporate new research on topics like religion, democracy, informality, geography and development, and climate change. Issues of gender has been incorporated throughout the book"--
