摘要

Development economics came of age as a distinct field within economics in the 1960s and has always been about narrowing the gap between the world's rich and poor nations. After some 40 years of experience, the single most important empirical reality has been the unevenness of the reduction of this gap. Nowhere is this more striking than when one compares the average performance of Asian and Sub-Saharan African economies. As Figure 1 illustrates, both regions started with similar levels of (population-weighted) per capita incomes in 1960 but find themselves now in a dramatically different situation. While East Asia, as a whole, succeeded in multiplying per capita incomes by a factor of 5 between 1960 and 2000 and has significantly reduced the gap with the rich countries, Sub Saharan Africa as a whole is not much richer than it was in 1960. Meanwhile South Asia overtook Sub Saharan Africa by 1990 and now has about twice its income level. Taking out South Africa, the dominant economy in Africa affects levels of GDP per capita, but not the overall comparisons of growth.
