This dissertation critically analyzes the debates on economic development of the last sixty years. One of the aims is to demonstrate the inadequacy of the methodological and epistemological premises on which different interpretations of development have been constructed and to demystify the traditional image of development.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation critically analyzes the debates on economic development of the last sixty years. One of the aims is to demonstrate the inadequacy of the methodological and epistemological premises on which different interpretations of development have been constructed and to demystify the traditional image of development.
520 $a This work challenges the universalist and Eurocentric assumptions of the national development model of the 1950s and 1960s, based on industrialization and modernization. It especially criticizes its modernization variant, which assumed socio-economic change as a unidirectional and progressive path of stages necessary for all societies. It puts also into question the premises of the universalist models contructed after the crisis of the 1970s, that is, of the neoliberal, statist, and cultural interpretations. What is contested is the fragmentation of knowledge priviliging a single aspect of the development process with the pretension of explaining its complexity through universal laws disregarding geopolitical, conjunctural, and historical dynamics.
520 $a In pursuing the object of a unitary knowledge of the world, and therefore of a different line of inquiry, this research proposes a world-systems theoretical framework and analytical tools to study the complexity of the development process in its totality.
520 $a The peculiarities of East Asian economic dynamism interpreted in a world-system framework are taken as a cue to challenge the ahistorical and reductionist assumptions of the conventional literature. In the framework of this study, "development," structurally, is not possible for all. It cannot be generalized, and the examples of economic success are rather exceptional. The transformation of the Asian economy constitutes one of these exceptions of upward mobility in the oligarchic structure of wealth of the capitalist world-economy and took place because of an exceptional combination of circumstances that can be understood only if analyzed in a broader historical, systemic and regional context.
