An interesting new book, by Justin Yifu Lin, on development economics: “The Quest for Prosperity: How Developing Economies Can Take Off.” Lin advances a hybrid approach to the issues--a middle way between the neoliberal emphasis on markets and prices and the structuralist emphasis on market failures and government intervention. He calls it “new structuralism.”
