Abstract

My contribution to Hans Linnemann’s Festschrift has the intention of unfolding some of Parmar’s ideas on development. This paper deals with the following questions: what is the intellectual inheritance of this Indian economist and how did he influence the thinking of a group of Western economists, including Hans Linnemann, who felt a strong commitment to the ecumenical movement? Samuel Parmar has written many articles which have been published in a great variety of journals and collections of articles.1
