| | Economic development - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Here it is understood that the development process is triggered by the transfer of surplus labor in the traditional sector to the modern sector in which some significant economic activities have already begun. |  | | It is a model taking the peculiar economic situation in developing countries into account: unemployment and underemployment of resources (especially labor) and the dualistic economic structure (modern vs. traditional sectors). |  | | Professor Dudley Seers argues development is about outcomes ie development occurs with the reduction and elimination of poverty, inequality and unemployment within a growing economy. |

| | Third World Economic Development, by Clive Crook: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and ... |
 | | A common argument is that many developing countries will be condemned to economic stagnation, regardless of the economic policies their governments pursue, by two factors beyond their control: their insupportable debts and their lack of home-grown entrepreneurs. |  | | In some developing countries, spending per capita on university education exceeds spending per capita on primary education by a factor of thirty. |  | | Numerous studies have shown that the economic returns to spending on primary education, especially for girls, are extremely high. |

| | Economic Development |
 | | Their thesis was simple: government intervention did not only not improve development, it in fact thwarted it. |  | | Thus, structural issues such as dualism, population growth, inequality, urbanization, agricultural transformation, education, health, unemployment,etc. all began to be reviewed on their own merits, and not merely as appendages to an underlying growth thesis. |  | | Thus, government involvement - whether by planning, socio-economic engineering or effective demand management - was regarded as a critical tool of economic development. |
