THE COMPANION TO DEVELOPMENT STUDIES
The first edition of The Companion to Development Studies has been very well received, both critically
and in the marketplace. Indeed, the major criticism we encountered suggested that we had
made it all too easy for students of development studies – a limitation that we could more than
happily live with! Further, the original volume has given rise to at least one other companion to
development studies, and we take this as a form of flattery.
Hence, our intention in the second edition has primarily been to bring the volume up to date.
The structure has, therefore, largely been retained, and the chapters are divided into ten major
parts. However, some of the titles of the parts have been modified. For example, Part 4 now deals
with ‘Globalization, employment and development’ rather than ‘Industrialization and employment’,
and Part 10 with ‘Governance and development’ rather than ‘Agents of development’. In
addition, the parts of the book dealing with the environment and the political economy of violence
have both seen considerable expansion
