Development Projects Observed

By Albert O. Hirschman

Book Overview

In this recent volume, Professor Albert O. Hirschman turns his attention to the ways in which economic development decision making is molded activated, or hampered by the specific nature of the project that is undertaken; for example, the establishment and operation of a pulp and paper mill in east Pakistan, an irrigation project in Peru, railway expansion in Nigeria, and other development undertakings. The bulk of the study explores new territory.
