Covering all developing regions, the book offers an integrated approach for considering the entwined aspects of development: governance, economics, foreign assistance, civil society, and the military. With reference to carefully chosen case studies, the authors offer distinctive explanations for why development approaches fall short and systematically relate the evolution of development thinking to current challenges, identifying the strengths and weaknesses of key institutions and the clashes of institutional interests that have distorted otherwise sound doctrines and negatively affected development practice. In identifying the dynamics that account for shortcomings in past development attempts, and recommending a better integration of doctrines across the entire range of inter-connected development fronts, the book points to how development practice may be improved to better advance human dignity.Politics, Economics, and Inclusive DevelopmentPolitical theoryPolitical philosophyPovertyEconomic developmentInternational relationsPolitical Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010Political Philosophyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E37000Development Aidhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913040Development Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913010Development Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913000International Relationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912000Developing countriesEconomic conditionsPolitical theory.Political philosophy.Poverty.Economic development.International relations.Political Theory.Political Philosophy.Development Aid.Development Theory.Development Studies.International Relations.338.9009172/4Ascher Williamauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut896916Brewer Garry Dauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autCheema G.
