Abstract

The authors, specialists in development, argue that what they call dirigisme—an a priori set of requirements for economic development—has led to the preeminence of the strong and the exclusion of the weak. They advocate a learning-centered approach to development, which in turn emphasizes the contributions of both demand and supply to economic development.
