‘. . . a refreshing attempt has been made by David Clark to provide a conceptual discussion on development along with empirical testing and it highlights the fact that much more needs to be done in this direction.’
– Jandhyala B.G. Tilak, Journal of Educational Planning and Administration
‘. . . this book is a valuable contribution to the development field.’
– Haider A. Kahn, Journal of Economic Issues
Visions of Development is a path-breaking and original volume, examining concepts and perceptions of human development through a unique synthesis of empirical and philosophical work. The author builds on the foundations of Sen and Nussbaum’s capability approach, now at the forefront of development studies.
