| Abstract: | Theories of economic development as diverse as modernization, dependency, world-system, amd market-reform take a "critical factor" view. Proponents of each theory argue that countries fail to develop because of an obstacle to economic growth. The authors argue instead that neither a critical factor nor a single path leads to economic development; viable paths vary. Economic growth depends on linking a country's historically developed patterns of social organization to the opportunities of global markets. |
