Development Microeconomics is the first in a series of books which will look at the entire spectrum of development economics issues, combining the strengths of conventional developmental thought with the insights of contemporary mainstream economics. The main new conceptual tool used is the application of the theory of imperfect information and the effects this has on the the behaviour of economic agents. This helps to explain why perfect competition models rarely have success when dealing with developing economies. The authors also stress the necessity of balance in dealing with many of the classic problems in development studiesthe importance of both the individual as economic agent and cultural norms as the framework of social behaviour; the dual relationship between equity and efficiency in economic policy-making; the importance of market rivalry and the potential of market breakdown. Designed specifically for graduate students, this book analyses the key microeconomic problems facing the very poorest sectors of developing economies. It utilises simple theoretical models, and is presented in a compact and analytical form. High technical sophistication is avoided, and the only pre-requisite is some familiarity with the tools of general microecomic theory at a first-year graduate or advanced undergraduate level. 000012369 650_0 $$aEconomic development$$zDeveloping countries. 000012369 650_0 $$aMicroeconomics$$zDeveloping countries. 000012369 650_0 $$aDeveloping countries$$zDeveloping countries. 000012369 650_0 $$aMicroeconomics. 000012369 650_0 $$aEconomic development. 000012369 650_0 $$aEconomics. 000012369 650_0 $$aPopulation$$xEconomic aspects. 000012369 650_0 $$aPoverty. 000012369 650_0 $$aInsurance. 000012369 650_4 $$aDEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS 000012369 650_4 $$aLAW AND ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL SCIENCES : ECONOMIC SCIENCE : SPECIFIC QUESTIONS 000012369 650_4 $$aDEVELOPMENT : TRADE, ENVIRONMENT, TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS, HUMAN CAPITAL 000012369 650_4 $$aDEVELOPING COUNTRIES : MICROECONOMIC PROBLEMS 000012369 650_4 $$aMICROECONOMIC THEORY 000012369 651_0 $$aDeveloping countries$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000012369 903__ $$v1 000012369 942__ $$cMON 000012369 952__ $$w2006-11-03$$p2000-00-0960$$r15.29$$u13129$$bMAIN$$10$$kB 75 BAR.D$$v2000-10-20$$zMissing$$70 000012369 980__ $$aBIB 000012369 999__ $$c12771$$d12771
