Structural change and long-term growth : the Suriname experience
van Dijck, Pitou
Structural change and long-term growth : the Suriname experience - 2001
Reviews the significant changes in the structure of the Suriname economy over the course of the 20th century. Focuses on the changes from a typical colonial plantation economy in decline at the start of the century, towards an agrarian economy dominated by small-scale production units until the second world war, and ultimately to a mining economy highly affected by the boom-bust cycles of the bauxite and aluminium market.
