Bücher von W. Arthur Lewis

This volume analyses and examines the history of the economic events of the inter-war years.

Covering the disciplines of economics, history, sociology, politics and anthropology, this book sets out the problems to be solved if mankind is to be freed from poverty. Focussing on output and growth, it discusses economic institutions, knowledge, capital, resources and government, and their role in the growth of output per head of population.

The emphasis throughout this book is on policy, although the basic techniques for making a plan are illustrated.
