Development dynamics

[Mamta M]

I am in deep doubt about this particular topic in mains PA Paper I.

Contents prescribed by UPSC for this topic:

• concept of development
• changing profile of development administration
• anti development thesis
• bureaucracy and development
• strong state vs market debate
• impact of liberalization on administration in developing countries
• women and development - the self help group movement

1. In which textbook can i find material on DEVELOPMENT DYNAMICS? IGNOU Material ... is it good for this topic?

2. Where can i find material on "Anti development thesis" and "state vs. market debate"? What source / text book?

Can anyone please throw some light on this?
In deep confusion..........

Hi Chakresh,
Thank you for replying to my query... I read the DA part of Mohit Bhattacharya (New horizons of PA) ... what exactly is Anti Development thesis... I could not relate to it... Can you shed some light on it....

Anti development thesis are theories proposed by various theorist criticizing the western development approach. This include
1. modern feminism
2. modern religious revivalism (Hindutva, Islam in Iran etc)
3. environment related concepts
4. localism
and many more such theories, which are basically against this western concept of development.
