Description

It is a major problem for less developed countries to make their primary sectors sufficiently profitable in order to be able to build up their manufacturing and service sectors.

This edited collection, first published in 1985, examines the nature of the primary sector and its role in economic development.

Chapters consider problems of stagnation and income distribution in such countries as Chile and Brazil; trade in national primary products and exports in Africa and the Middle East; and reform and policies of development in countries such as Peru.

An interesting volume with an international scope, this title will be of value to economics students with a particular interest in the role of the primary sector in developing economies.
