Development challenges: Is there a way out of the middle-income trap?

There is a long tradition in development thinking addressing challenges for low- and middle-income countries. Indeed, Hans Singer (Prebisch-Singer) proposed the terms of trade argument, a possible trap arising out of export specialisation (primary vs. industrial). More recently, Gill and Kharas coined the term ‘middle income trap’ which has had an impact on development and policy discussions. But first, one must ask: ‘is there a middle-income trap’ to end with a brief introduction to the discussion of development challenges today.
