    A summary of the the current state of thought about the role of agriculture in economic development: A preliminary analysis
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 1981) Demirdöğen, Sinan; Bursa Üniversitesi/İktisadi ve Sosyal Bilimler Fakültesi.
    The dispute on the role of agriculture in economic development has grown fast since the end of the Second World War. lnitially, the economic theory was predominated by the strategy of rapid industrialization, which entailed models designed for the initiation and support of industrial development in the urban sector at the expense of agriculture. The factors which influenced such a formulation were twofold: in almost all of the industrialized high-income countries the largest share in production and employment was of industry; during the course of economic growth in high income countries, a predominantly urban capitalist sector had expanded at the expense of other sectors, whereas low income (currently developing) countries had been stagnated by the impact of a static rural sector during the same period. Moreover, in the early postwar period, those who were engaged in formulating o general development pattern applicable to all countries were concerned with the reconstruction and restoration of the war stricken European economies while also designing remedies for the problems of the densely populated areas which were gradually gaining their political independence.

    The threefold sequence of perceptions of the choice of development strategies for the rural populations of third world countries
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 1981) Demirdöğen, Sinan; Bursa Üniversitesi/İktisadi ve Sosyal Bilimler Fakültesi.
    The postwar period has witnessed a sequence of consensuses on alternative development strategies for the rural parts of Third World countries. Changes in perceptions of the choice of the strategies over the last three decades are mainly due to set-backs in the adoption of early strategies and the urgent requirement to meet the basic needs of the rural populations. Objectives of the strategies have been so altered that rural people have themselves become a target in planning rather than an object in an aggregate sectoral planning strategy while emphasis has shifted from growth in gross national product (GNP) per se to increase in the welfare and economic productivity in the rural areas.
