Traditional economics is concerned primarily with the efficient, least-cost allocation of scarce productive resources where as Development Economics has an even greater scope.

To achieve this ,the course introduces students the major theoretic paradigms and debates on growth and development. It then introduces Pakistan perspective on  policy issues and experience relating to agriculture, trade ,industrialization, and international financial flows .
