Western aid is in decline. Non-traditional development actors from
the developing countries and elsewhere are in the ascendant. A new
set of global economic and political processes are shaping the
twenty-first century. This book engages with nearly two decades of
continuity and change in the development industry. In particular,
it argues that while the world of international development has
expanded since the 1990s, it has become more rigidly technocratic.
The authors insist on a focus upon the core anthropological issues
surrounding poverty and inequality, and thus sharply criticise what
are perceived as problems in the field. Anthropology and
Development is a completely rewritten edition of the best-selling
and critically acclaimed Anthropology, Development and the
Post-Modern Challenge (1996). It serves as both an innovative
reformulation of the field, as well as a textbook for many
undergraduate and graduate courses at leading international
universities.
