Description

Explore a new perspective on global economic growth with Cultures of Development. This Routledge publication examines the limitations of the North Atlantic development establishment and its 65-year track record. While mainstream development studies often focus heavily on institutions or government size, this book offers a different approach by looking at the cultural factors that influence success. Through a contrapuntal comparison of Vietnam and Brazil, the text investigates why certain nations succeed while others struggle. It highlights how major economic success stories, including China and South Korea, often achieved their status by moving away from the advice of Western experts. This book is a necessary resource for those looking to understand the real drivers of prosperity in the developing world and why traditional economic models often fail to account for local realities.

Key Features

Provides a deep comparison between the development paths of Vietnam and Brazil to identify patterns of prosperity.

Challenges traditional mainstream development studies that focus strictly on government size and institutional frameworks.

Analyzes why successful economies like South Korea and China often rejected Western economic advice to achieve growth.

Offers a critical look at the 65-year history of the North Atlantic development establishment and its results.

Part of the Routledge Studies in Development and Society series for academic and professional research.
