The primary purpose of this edited collection is to evaluate
critically the relationship between local government and national
economic development. It focuses on how the relationship between
local government and development is structured, and the specific
institutional arrangements at national and subnational levels that
might facilitate local government's assumption of the role of
development agent. In light of the contradictory outcomes of
development and implied experimentation with new modalities,
post-development discourse provides a useful explanatory framework
for the book. Schoburgh, Martin and Gatchair's central argument is
that the pursuit of national developmental goals is given a
sustainable foundation when development planning and strategies
take into account elements that have the potential to determine the
rate of social transformation. Their emphasis on localism
establishes a clear link between local government and local
economic development in the context of developing countries.
