Smart growth refers to growth that is planned instead of random.  As the human population grows, the need for more development increases.  It is inevitable that growth will occur.  By planning what we build, where we build it and doing it in a fashion that will minimize our impact on the environment we can provide adequate housing and infrastructure for current and future generations.

Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It contains within it two key concepts: the concept of "needs", in particular the essential needs of the world's poor, to which overriding priority should be given; and the idea of limitations imposed by the state of technology and social organization on the environment's ability to meet present and the future needs.

It would help if you told us where you saw those terms used because academics like to throw random words like that around all the time. I've heard of developmental democracy, implying that a democratic political system hasn't been fully formed yet and only includes some elements of democracy (usually formal processes like elections, but no change of government). I would say a "developmental state" has the same idea behind it, maybe to include economic and social development.\n\nA minimal state, though, often referenced alongside "neoliberalist" economic policies refers to instances where governments limit their role in citizens lives. Accordingly, governments are only responsible for national security, law and order and regulation of market (but only to prevent corruption and economic crises).

Through the years, there have been a number of approaches to this issue: the first measurements of economic development relied on GDP per capita, expressed in terms of a numerary currency, such as the American dollar; this method of measurement has been all but abandoned by international financial institutions in favor of GDP per capita adjusted by purchasing power parity (PPP). A more holistic approach has been favored by institutions such as the United Nations Development Program, which annually measures the Human Development Index (HDI) for a wide number of nations; the HDI is composed of three variables:\n\n1. GDP per capita, adjusted by PPP\n2. Life expectancy at birth\n3. Literacy proportion\n\nFor more info on GDP calculations and PPP, look them up in a macroeconomics textbook: Dornbusch, Fisher and Startz or Mankiw are good options.
