This collection shifts the focus away from this to examine the
conflicts and realities of development at a local, empirical level.
It provides a series of case studies which illuminate the attitudes
and actions of those involved in local development schemes. The
material is drawn from Southern and Eastern Europe, Asia and
Africa. All the contributors use rigorous anthropological methods
of analysis to shed light on the place of feelings of personal
sentiment and identity in reactions to planned development schemes.
In a world where direct action and public protest are routine
responses to local development schemes, they show how protesters,
developers and politicians often hold very different fundamental
views about the environment, society, government and development
which go beyond partisan economic and political interests. This
collection provides a comparative perspective on the context of
development, and should be of interest to social anthropologists,
planners, development workers and specialists in development
studies.
