Description

Understand the complex realities of development schemes through this specialized academic study. Take Out Hunger: Two Case Studies of Rural Development in Basutoland (LSE Monographs on Social Anthropology Volume 39) provides a deep look into why certain initiatives succeed while others fail in the third world. This monograph compares two distinct schemes in Basutoland, now known as Lesotho. The first study, which was abandoned in 1961, is examined using documentary material. The second study focuses on a scheme that remains successful in parts of the area, utilizing direct observation and field research to provide insights. By looking at the politics and economics behind these projects, this book offers valuable knowledge for students and professionals in anthropology and sociology. It moves beyond simple observations to analyze the actual factors that determine the outcome of rural development efforts.

Key Features

In-depth research methods including the use of documentary material for historical projects and field research for ongoing ones.

Focus on the specific political and economic factors that influence the effectiveness of development initiatives.

Part of the LSE Monographs on Social Anthropology series, providing academic rigor for social science studies.
