Despite significant financial investments, the rate of development
and pace of poverty reduction in developing and transitional
countries has not always matched expectations. Development
management typically involves complex interactions between
governmental and non-governmental organisations, donors and members
of the public, and can be difficult to navigate. This volume brings
together a group of international contributors to explore the
theoretical and empirical underpinnings of development management,
and to consider the prospects and challenges associated with it in
the context of both developing and transitional countries.
Referring to dominant norms and values in public and developmental
organisations, development management is tied up with the attitudes
and perceptions of various stakeholders including: government
officials, public sector managers, aid workers, donors and members
of the public. Attempting to make sense of complex interactions
between these actors is highly problematic and calls for new
approaches, models and insights. Based on cutting-edge research,
the chapters challenge much of the previous discourse on the
subject and evaluate the challenges and opportunities that it
presents. Development Management offers academics, researchers and
practitioners of public administration, business and management,
international development and political science a comprehensive and
state-of-the-art review of current research on development
management in the context of developing and transitional countries.
