"Critical Issues In Development Economics" The desire of publishing this book has been driven by two major considerations. First, there has been recent emphasis on taking policy decisions based on critical analysis of economic issues. Second, there has been a renewed interest in dynamics of both rural and urban sectors of a developing country along with external factors of globalization. This book provides some analytical frameworks which, to some extent, time neutral and as such very relevant for the development efforts of Bangladesh. The stance of the papers of this book is to first identify the critical factors behind development and then analyze the direction of influences on development indicators and their quantitative dimensions. The eleven topics in this book cover an array of subjects; peasant household, small entrepreneurs, poverty and access to land, ruralurban migration, environment and poverty, international cooperation and others. The subjects encompass micro, meso and macro levels of an economy. The analytical approach of the papers goes beyond the field of economics and so the approach is inter-disciplinary. I got inspiration to publish this book from the realization that the papers of this nook, albeit different in nature, may be useful to a cross section of people.
