Todo el mundo está a favor del desarrollo, que en la mente de las personas ha llegado a equipararse con casi todas las facetas de la buena sociedad. No obstante, pocas veces se define el término y, menos aún, se pondera o pone en tela de juicio. El presente libro explora las teorías del desarrollo clásicas, que buscaban explicar el desarrollo inicial del mundo industrializado, y la “época dorada” de la teoría del desarrollo —la oposición entre la teoría de la modernización y la teoría del sistema mundial y la dependencia, que protagonizó el debate hasta la década de 1970—, para examinar las teorías alternativas —postmodernas, medioambientales, de género y el desarrollo humano— y las tendencias actuales. Su enfoque innovador, que relaciona la evolución de la teoría con los éxitos y fracasos del desarrollo en distintos lugares y momentos, hacen de este libro una herramienta imprescindible para todas las personas que trabajan en este ámbito y estudiosos de las ciencias sociales.
