Throughout the 1980s there have been calls, often from development
organizations of global repute, for the incorporation of social
science perspectives into the design and management of sustainable
development programmes. "Practising Development" is the first
collection to offer first-hand critical assessments of the success
and failures found within actual responses to these calls.
Development planning and implementation has been simultaneously
marked by the recurrence of broad universal patterns and a
diversity of local interests and while the former receive ample
attention in the work of economists, statisticians and agronomists,
the latter remains largely under-reported and insufficiently
understood. The contributors demonstrate that understanding local
diversity is at least as meaningful as knowledge of seemingly
universal categories and tendencies and illustrate a variety of
organizational responses to provide a valuable contribution to the
debate on whether these policies are, or can be, turned into
practice.
