Infrastructure development projects are set to continue into the
next century as developing country governments seek to manage
population growth, urbanization and industrialization. The
contributions in this volume raise many questions about
'development' and 'progress' in the late twentieth century. What is
revealed are the enormous problems and disastrous affects which
continue to accompany displacement operations in many countries,
which raise the ever more urgent question of whether the benefits
of infrastructure development justify or outweigh the pain of the
radical disruption of peoples lives, exacerbated by the fact that,
with some notable exceptions, there has been a lack of official
recognition on the part of governments and international agencies
that development-induced displacement is a problem at all. This
important volume addresses the issues and shows just how serious
the situation is.
