Community development is routinely invoked as a practical solution
to tackle a myriad of social problems, even though there is little
consensus about its meaning and purpose. Through a comparative
analysis of competing perspectives on community development since
1968, this book critically examines the contradictory ideas and
practices that have shaped this field in the US and the UK. This
approach exposes a problematic politics that have far-reaching
consequences for those committed to working for social justice.
This accessible book offers an alternative model for thinking about
the politics of community development and so will appeal to
academics, postgraduate students and community development workers.
