| Abstract: | Various strategies have been used in the developing countries for the purpose of development of backward areas. Economic development has to be conceived as a multi-faceted process, and has to be understood as a total systems problem. Since the developmental problems are multidisciplinary, messy and complex, they are ideally suited for the systems approach. The description of the application of such a systemic approach to the issue of backward-area development is attempted. A methodology of stagewise action programmes based on the approach in relation to two backward districts in India is outlined. |
