Sustainable economic development! 永續發展 Inclusive Growth! 包容性成長

Economic development經濟發展, the process whereby simple, low-income national economies are transformed into modern industrial economies. Although the term is sometimes used as a synonym for economic growth, generally it is employed to describe a change in a country’s economy involving qualitative as well as quantitative improvements. The theory of economic development—how primitive and poor economies can evolve into sophisticated and relatively prosperous ones—is of critical importance to underdeveloped countries, and it is usually in this context that the issues of economic development are discussed.
International development is an interdisciplinary subject, in which approaches and insights from anthropology, finance, geography, health sciences, political science, psychology, and sociology have had significant influence on this subject, and are considered throughout the class. Now e.g. behavioral economics and experimental research play central roles in this field.
