description |
Development’s current focus – poverty reduction and good governance –
signals a turn away from the older neoliberal preoccupation with structural
adjustment, privatization, and downsizing the state. For some, the new
emphases on empowering and securing the poor through basic service
delivery, local partnership, decentralization and institution building constitute
a decisive break with the past, and a whole set of new Development
possibilities beyond neoliberalism.
Taking a wider historical perspective, this book charts the emergence of
poverty reduction and governance at the centre of Development. It shows
that the Poverty Reduction paradigm does indeed mark a shift in the wider
liberal project that has underpinned Development: precisely what is new
and what this means for the ways the poorer parts of the planet are governed
are here described in detail.
This book provides a compelling history of Development doctrine and
practice, and in particular offers the first comprehensive account of the last
20 years, and Development’s shift towards institution building, decentralized
governance and local partnerships. The story is illustrated with
extensive case studies from first-hand experience in Vietnam, Uganda,
Pakistan and New Zealand. |
