Yusif A. Sayigh
`Elusive Development is an ambitious, exhiliarating attempt to
persuade academics and policy makers alike "that meaningful
development, whether under socialism or under progressive
nationalism, will remain elusive, unless it is sustained by a
number of critical and though preprquisites. ... In an era of
cascading capitalism, Yusif Sayigh offers a welcome alternative
vision for the future.' - International Journal of Middle East
Studies Vol 25:2
`This is a welcome addition to the literature on economic
development...it makes for very interesting and relevant reading in
pursuit of the answer.' - The Economic Journal
`Sayigh's study certainly contains some thought-provoking
statements on the dependency paradigm and the possibilities of
collective, self-reliance in the Arab World.' - Tijdschrift voor
Economische en Sociale Geografie
