The conditions of agricultural growth
When it first appeared in 1965, The Conditions of Agricultural Growth heralded a breakthrough in the theory of agricultural development. Whereas 'development' had previously been seen as the transformation of traditional communities by the introduction (or imposition) of new technologies, Ester Boserup argued that changes and improvements occur from within agricultural communities, and that improvements are governed not only by outside interferen…
Woman's Role in Economic Development
'Boserup's contribution to our thinking on women's role in development cannot be underestimated. Her keen observations, her use of empirical data and her commitment to greater gender equality are still an inspiration to students, researchers and activists who are interested in a better and more equal world.' From the new Introduction by Nazneen Kanji, Su Fei Tan and Camilla Toulmin 'Women's Role in Economic Development has become a key reference …
Development Theory
THE HUMAN and social sciences have now divided into a large number of academic disciplines, many of which have made important contributions to development theory. But the rapid accumulation of knowledge such specialization makes possible is not without its problems. Differences in terminology and methodology and insufficient interdisciplinary cooperation create misunderstandings and apparent or real conflicts between disciplines. In this note, I …

Population growth, innovation and resource exploitation
The most important link between population growth and economic development is provided by the reductions in communication and transport costs which follow from increases in population density. Where population size is small improvements in labour productivity are impeded because limited numbers restrict the possibilities for labour specialization outside the family. Specialized producers of consumer goods, agricultural equipment, and services can…

Population and Technology in Preindustrial Europe
Most of the production in preindustrial European villages and towns was organized in family enterprises. This organization and the marriage system in these families resulted in a fertility rate that was low enough and a rate of savings that was high enough to secure the amount of investment necessary to accommodate the increasing population. Concentration of specialized producers and the intellectual elite in towns facilitated technology transfer…

Economic and Demographic Interrelationships in sub-Saharan Africa
In most of Africa the process of structural change accompanying increasing industrialization has barely begun and features of African land tenure and family organization that encourage high fertility remain largely intact. Because of unequal spatial distribution of the population industrial development is constrained by insufficient markets; and income-earning opportunities in the vast sparsely populated regions are few. Long-fallow agriculture m…

Sheffer's contention that I have skewed data to suit my purposes is denied. I suggest that it is, rather, he who misuses my data

Woman's Role in Economic Development
Environnement, population et technologie dans les sociétés primitives
L'essor démographique de l'Europe au cours de la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle, amena les économistes européens à élaborer une théorie des rapports entre l'environnement, la population et la technologie, que de nombreux spécialistes des sciences sociales continuent aujourd'hui à appliquer aux problèmes de développement des sociétés primitives. La caractéristique fondamentale de cette théorie est qu'elle considère la tendance démographique comme…

Integration of Women in Development
Women have been largely excluded from the development effort in most countries of the world. The intensification of agriculture often increases the demand for female labor and undermines the educational opportunities of female children. The share of agricultural work performed by females also tends to increase with urban development which creates widespread outmigration of rural male youth. The failure to provide women with agricultural vocationa…
