O knihe

Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Development Politics, grade: 2,0, University of Warwick, language: English, abstract: This essay will focus on his work in the beginning of series of events that changed the perspective of development forever. I want to analyse the impact of the content of this time on the book of Rostow. I suggest that he was influenced by contemporary history of his time. First I want to explain Rostows idea of different stages of economic growth in the development process. Following I am going to define several contemporary events that could be influenced the work of Rostow, as well as the personal background of Rostow. I might suggest that the personal background as well as context of scientific debate influences an author and his work. Jim Marlow would call this "influence of intertextuality". Concluding I will summarize if my argument, that Rostows work was influenced by his time is valid or not.
