Government agencies, non-governmental agencies, etc. are agents of development. Karl marx: all that is solid melts into air. Even when we have positive growth, the negative will occur. Joseph schumpeter: the perennial gale of creative destruction . Destroying the old and building the new on the elements of the old.
