Linear Stage of Growth (Harrod-Domar Model
Structural change theories (Lewis Model)
International –dependence revolution (Marxist/Radical Model)
Neoclassical-free market re-surgence
Can differences in thinking be re-conciled?
Explaining Growth- Application of Production Possibilities Curve (PPC)
Illustrating growth using PPC, efficiency, trade offs ,technological
change
• New Growth Theory-Solow Model ( labor quality or human capital).
• What about institutions. They are ignored in these models.
• Measuring Development (Perkins chapter 2)

Development – Four Approaches

Development as Growth and
Linear-Stages Theories

stages
• Harrod Domar Growth Model: Emphasis on
Physical Capital.

3-9
Criticisms- Lewis Model
• Rate of labor transfer and employment creation may not be
proportional to rate of modern-sector capital accumulation.
Growth in modern sector may not draw enough labor.
• Surplus labor in rural areas and full employment in urban?
• Institutional factors? These assumptions are not correct.
• Assumption of diminishing returns in modern sector

The International-Dependence
Revolution: Radical/Marxist Model
• The neoclassical dependence model
– Unequal power, core-periphery
• The false-paradigm model
– Using “expert” advisors
• The dualistic-development thesis
– Superior and inferior elements can coexist;
– center-periphery (sociologist’s view)
• Conclusions and implications
– No insight on development, empirical evidence

3-12
The Neoclassical Counterrevolution:
Market Resurgence
• Challenging the statist model
– Free market approach
– Public choice approach
– Market-friendly approach
• Traditional neoclassical growth theory
– Solow model
• Conclusions and implications
– institutional and political realities in developing world

Theories of Development:
Reconciling the Differences
• Development economics has no universally
accepted paradigm? But everything does not go?
• Insights and understandings are continually
evolving: Lessons from experience & history
• Each theory has some strengths and some
weaknesses:
• But there are better theories tested with reality of
evidence and experience

Appendix 3.1: Components of
Economic Growth
• Capital Accumulation, investments in physical and
human capital
– Increase capital stock
– GNP= Q(L,K)= F(L,K)
• Growth in population and labor force
• Technological progress
– Neutral, labor/capital-saving, labor/capital augmenting
– GNP= F(L, K, T)
