Growth Theory: A Philosophical Perspective

by Northover Patri, Patri Northover, Patricia Northover

Since the 1980s, growth theory has re-emerged at the forefront of economic analysis and has prompted a rekindling of the debates on why growth rates differ. Drawing on recent developments in the philosophy of science, this book tackles the subject, developing novel critical perspectives on neoclassical and evolutionary growth theory, while revisiting the major discussion on UK industrial decline.
