Abstract
The field of law and development has undergone several changes in its 50 year history. This essay reviews the main ideas that dominated the field in the 20th Century and suggests new themes that are emerging today. In the 21st Century development scholars are looking to the law both as a framework for experimentation and as a guarantor of basic rights. 21st Century law is increasingly shaped by global forces so the field must take a multi-level-evidence-based approach.
