Résumé : | The scarce consideration of national and sector specificity has affected the efficacy of development policies choices in poorer countries. The agricultural sector plays a major role. This paper is aimed at evaluating the possibility of classifying less developed countries through an empirical validation of the classification hypotheses proposed by P.N. Mathur. Mathur subdivides less developed countries according to their susceptibility to different economic policy orientations and he focuses attention on the role of agriculture. The classification was made through cluster analysis. Five groups of countries were identified, having characters partially different from those assumed by Mathur. Two major orientations were observed. The former is the one of industrialising countries, where agriculture is oriented to domestic consumption. In the latter, poor industrial development is associated with agricultural exports to supply strong currency reserves; this feeds a vicious circle of underdevelopment. The group of countries traditionally oriented towards agricultural exports as engine for development, as defined by Mathur, is small. The need is felt of revising the approaches traditionally adopted at the international level in development policies, in particular as far as agriculture of less developed countries is concerned |
