Haynes has written a concise and lucid introduction to the developing world. At the same time, the work is rich in analysis and in empirical examples drawn from a wide variety of developing countries and the political and economic developments occurring within them. Politics in the Developing World is a welcome and an important addition to the growing literature on political and economic development.
