Many aid agencies advocate approaches to development which are
people-centered, participatory, empowering, and gender-fair. This
volume of essays explores some of the middle ground between such
values-based approaches and the methods and techniques that the
agencies adopt. The selection offers critical assessments of
fashionable tools such as Participatory Rural Appraisal and Logical
Framework. It demonstrates how these are linked (conceptually and
in practice) to the wider ideological environment in which they are
used, and shows how they depend upon the skills of the fieldworker
and/or organisation applying them. Contributors argue that tools
and methods will contribute to a values-based approach only if
those using them have a serious commitment to a social agenda which
is genuinely transformative.
