The agricultural sector's percieved importance in the international development circle waned dramatically after the 1980s, and investments in rural development declined sharply. This volume reasserts the role of agricultural and rural development in the economic development debate. By revising the evolution of ideas, paradigms and empirical evidence, and by drawing on Asian experinces, the book intends to set a reinvigorated agenda on agricultural and rural deve- lopment both for research and policy discussions in the coming decades. Written by internationally acknowledged research scholars, this book is helpful to a wide range of audience, including researchers, policymakers, and students interested in rural development in Asia and its future evolutions.
