All O - Economic Development, Innovation, and Growth

Economists whose primary contribution concerns why economies grow, industrialize, or fail to develop, including growth theory, development economics, structuralist and dependency theory, and the economics of innovation. Belongs here: growth theorists, development economists working on poorer and industrializing economies, structuralist and dependency theorists, and economists of innovation and technological change. Does not belong here: a trade theorist whose comparative-advantage or factor-proportions work is the primary contribution even where it has development implications, grouped under International Economics instead.
