THE DEVELOPMENT AND DIRECTION OF AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS: REQUIEM OR RESURRECTION?
批判性回顾了过去三十年农业发展经济学的文献,指出该学科近期对政策议程的影响力有所下降,并按主题和时间顺序讨论了农场经济学、项目规划、政策改革、环境经济学和新制度经济学,最后提出了学科未来发展的建议。
This paper provides a critical review of the literature of agricultural development economics over the past thirty years, against the background of a contention that the discipline has recently lost some influence on the policy agenda. The literature is discussed in categories which are thematic and chronological: farm economics; project planning; policy reform; environmental economics and the new institutional economics. Recommendations are made as to directions in which the discipline should move forward.
