2004年5月在康奈尔大学举行了一次题为“发展研究75年"的会议。1除了通常的一系列关于发展问题的理论和经验文件外，一些小组评估了发展经济学的现状，并讨论了一系列方法问题。在对发展经济学现状提出的挑战中，有一个评论很突出：“今天的发展经济学理论太少了吗？”作者：Dilip Mookherjee他对自己的问题作了肯定的回答。鉴于报告引起的辩论，会议结束后，报告被分发给出席会议的一些主要发展经济学家，并请他们作出答复。Pranab Bardhan回复了《发展经济学中的理论或经验》，Kaushik Basu也回复了《新经验发展经济学：关于其哲学基础的评论》。这些文件在很大程度上支持Mookherjee采取的立场。随后，阿比吉特·班纳吉（Abhijit Banerjee）对这三篇论文的回应是《新发展经济学和对理论的挑战》（“New Development Economics”and the Challenge to Theory”），这篇论文为发展经济学中现行的实证方法进行了辩护。拉维·坎布尔随后发表了他的评论，“金发姑娘发展经济学”。Ravi Kanbur还负责协调捐款。这五篇论文将在《经济与政治周刊》的这次研讨会上发表。
In May 2004 a conference was held at Cornell University entitled “75 Years of Development Research.”.1 Apart from the usual array of theoretical and empirical papers on development, a number of panels took stock of the state of development economics and discussed a range of methodological issues. One commentary that stood out in the challenge it posed to the current state of development economics was, “Is there Too Little Theory in Development Economics Today?” by Dilip Mookherjee. He answered his own question in the affirmative. Given the debate it generated, after the conference it was circulated to a number of leading development economists who had been present at the conference, and responses were invited. Pranab Bardhan sent in a response, “Theory or Empirics in Development Economics,” as did Kaushik Basu, “The New Empirical Development Economics: Remarks on its Philosophical Foundations.” These papers were largely supportive of the position taken by Mookherjee. There then followed a response to all three of these papers by Abhijit Banerjee, “‘New Development Economics’ and the Challenge to Theory,” which mounted a defense of the current empirical methods in development economics. Ravi Kanbur then followed with his comments, “Goldilocks Development Economics.” Ravi Kanbur also took the responsibility of coordinating the contributions. These five papers are being brought together here in this symposium in Economic and Political Weekly.
