International Development Working Papers (IDWP)
The Michigan State University International Development Working Paper (IDWP) series is designed to further the comparative analysis of international development activities in Africa, Latin America, Asia, and the Near East. The papers report research findings on historical, as well as contemporary, international development problems. The series includes papers on a wide range of topics, such as alternative rural development strategies; nonfarm employment and small scale industry; housing and construction; farming and marketing systems; food and nutrition policy analysis; economics of rice production in West Africa; technological change, employment, and income distribution; computer techniques for farm and marketing surveys; farming systems and food security research.
The papers are aimed at teachers, researchers, policy makers, donor agencies, and international development practitioners. Selected papers are translated into French, Spanish, or other languages.
