In this introduction, we set out the rationale for the Handbook of International Development and provide a brief overview of the evolution of the field of development studies. Through this narrative, we identify areas, both established concerns and newly emergent topics, which require further consideration and research. Underpinning this initial outline, we identify three themes that cut across many of the contributions in this Handbook, namely human rights, participation and sustainability.
