Description

Development policies imposed by international agencies and state bodies often fail to meet the actual needs and aspirations of people in poor nations. This publication explores why traditional top-down approaches frequently fall short of their promises. As development agencies search for better ways to work, the concept of indigenous knowledge has emerged as a way to make local voices heard more effectively. This book examines this shift and looks at the tension between development practices and academic perspectives. While indigenous knowledge is gaining recognition in development contexts, it has yet to be fully validated and accepted by the field of anthropology. This volume provides a necessary look at how local perspectives can change the way development is approached. It is an essential read for those studying how to bridge the gap between international policy and the real-world needs of local communities.

Key Features

Examines why traditional development policies imposed from above often fail to deliver results for poor nations.

Investigates the rise of indigenous knowledge as a method to ensure local voices are heard in development projects.

Analyzes the gap between development agency practices and the academic standards of anthropology.

Provides insight into alternative approaches that aim to meet the true aspirations of ordinary people.
