• Resumen

  • This passionately written short book makes a provocative contribution to the economic development literature by taking what may best be thought of as a Gandhian/humanistic perspective on life and progress.

Rao's view that migration needs to be unfettered, with national borders eventually eliminated, is the most controversial aspect of this book. [Extracted from the article]
