It presents a panorama of different ideologies of accelerated development, which dominated the world just before the war and in the next 40 years. The author explains why in the 1970s global and local elites began to turn away from the state, exchanging statism for the belief in the «invisible hand of the market» as a panacea for underdevelopment. He focuses not only on the genesis of underdevelopment, but also on the causes of popularity of economic planning, and the advent of neoliberalism in the discourse of development economics. This book evaluates the power of state as a vehicle of progress and focuses in detail on the Soviet Union, China, Poland, Ghana, Tanzania, and South Korea.Geschichte, Erinnerung, Politik ;Band 16.Economic history20th centuryEconomic developmentHistory20th centuryEconomicsPolitical aspectsHistory20th century1943–198020th century historyDeveloping countries in 20th centuryEconomic planningEconomic underdevelopmentEconomyGrowthHistory of PolandLeapLeszczyńskiModernityPeripheryPoliticalPolitical economy of developmentEconomic historyEconomic developmentHistoryEconomicsPolitical aspectsHistory338.9009/045Leszczyński Adam1975-884717MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910485584603321Leap into modernity1975604UNINA
