Understanding of Economic Development

Economic Development
General discussions …….
 Economic development is a term that economists, politicians, and others have
used frequently in the 20th century. The concept, however, has been in
existence in the West for centuries. Modernization, Westernization, and
especially Industrialization are other terms people have used when discussing
economic development.
Economic Development
General discussions …….
 Economic development is generally referred to the sustained, concerted effort of
policymakers and community to promote the standard of living and economic wealth
in a specific area.
 It involves multiple areas including development of human capital, critical
infrastructure, regional competitiveness, environmental sustainability, social
inclusion, health, safety, literacy, and other initiatives.
 The scope of economic development includes the process and policies by which a
nation improves the economic, political, and social well-being of its people.
Economic Development
Economic Development …. A definition
 Economic development is the development of economic wealth of countries, regions
or communities for the well-being of their inhabitants.
 From a policy perspective, economic development can be defined as efforts that seek
to improve the economic well-being and quality of life for a community by creating
and/or retaining jobs and supporting or growing incomes and the tax base
6
Economic growth
Economic development differs from economic growth.
 Economic growth concerns about an increase in a country's real level of national output
which can be caused by an increase in the quality of resources (by education etc.),
increase in the quantity of resources & improvements in technology or in another way
an increase in the value of goods and services produced by every sector of the economy.
 Economic Growth can be measured by an increase in a country's GDP (gross domestic
product).
 On the other hand, economic development is a policy intervention endeavor with aims
of economic and social well-being of people.
Economic growth
 Economic growth = Growth of national income of the country
 It increases in a net national product in a given period of time say a year
 The country will register economic growth only if per capita income was gone up
when the national income growth at a higher rate than the growth rate of population
Clark and Fisher Model of Development

Model of Development
Who are Clark and Fisher?

Model of Development
John Bates Clark ……. Biography

11
Model of Development
John Bates Clark ……. His work
 Early works – critics of capitalism, reflecting the influence of the German
socialism. Competition is not a universal remedy.
“….. We do not eat man … but we do it by such indirect and refined
methods that it does not generally occur to us that we are cannibals”
(Clark, J.B., 1878, How to Deal with Communism).
 Change of views, finishes the first work “THE PHILOSOPHY OF WEALTH
(1886)”
26/1/1847 – 21/3/1938)
“ …. He was convinced that pure competition was the natural and normal
law by which the economic order obtained justice” (Everett, J.R., 1946,
Religion in Economics)

15
Model of Development
Clark Fisher Model of Development
 Two economists, Fisher and Clark put forward the idea that economy would
have three stages of production.
 The model uses percentages employed in each sector.
 It shows how as economy grows the relative importance of different sector
changes.
16
Model of Development
The three stages are:
 Primary production
 Secondary production
 Tertiary production
17
Model of Development
1. Primary production
Primary
Sector
 Is related to activities of
extracting raw materials
through agriculture,
mining, fishing, and
forestry.
 Low income countries are
assumed to be dominated
by primary production.
 These are relatively
primitive economies
18
Model of Development
Secondary
Sector
Secondary production
 Is related to the growth of
manufacturing and
construction sectors
 Middle income countries are
often dominated by
secondary production
 To fulfill the growing
demand in industrial goods,
leads to decrease of
manufacturing
19
Model of Development
Tertiary production
Tertiary
Sector
 Is concerned with the provision of
services, such as
 education
 healthcare
 financial services
 tourism
 This sector dominates in highincome countries
 This change is driven by an increase
in productivity per employee
20
Model of Development
… to summarize
 Increased productivity in agriculture frees people to work in
manufacturing.
 Increased manufacturing productivity and increased income
means people spend proportionally less on agricultural goods,
 and then less on manufacturing goods than on services.
21
Model of Development
Quaternary production
 The quaternary sector of the economy is an
extension of the three-sector hypothesis of
industry.
 It principally concerns the intellectual services:
 information generation
 information sharing
 consultation
 education
 R&D
 It is sometimes incorporated into the tertiary sector
but some argue that intellectual services are
distinct enough to warrant a separate sector.
 This sector evolves in well developed countries
and requires a highly educated workforce

Another Clark……. Colin Grant Clark

2/11/1905 – 4/9/1989)
25
Model of Development
Colin Clark predicted….
“… as times goes on and communities become more economically advanced, the
numbers engaged in agriculture tend to decline relative to the numbers engaged
in manufacture, which in their turn decline to the numbers engaged in service”
(Clark, 1960).

Model of Development
Criticism of the model
 There are many LDCs where the main sector is a service sector, without having
a properly developed secondary sector.
Examples:
-Kenya (tourism)
-Malta (tourism, financial services)
-Cyprus (tourism, financial services)
-Hong Kong (financial services)
 The model ignores the international economic context , not taking into
consideration the import of manufactured goods
31
Factors determining the rate of Economic development
1. Availability of natural resources
2. The rate of capital formation
3. Capital-out put ratio
4. Technological progress
5. Dynamic Entrepreneurship
6. Rate of growth of population
7. Social overheads like education & health
8. Non-Economic factor
