Description

Early approaches to social development often focused heavily on economic and technical issues. This volume by Routledge offers a different perspective, starting from the premise that economic and technical patterns are embedded in cultural patterns. Because customs and beliefs can act as barriers to change, this book provides essential context for understanding how development projects succeed or fail in real-world settings. Through a collection of case studies, this book develops a model for analysis and action. Each case history includes an analytic guide to help readers navigate complex social shifts. The editor also points out specific factors that influenced the outcomes of various projects, making this an practical resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, or international development. It is designed to help readers understand the social dynamics that shape the success of technical and economic initiatives in developing regions.
