This title was first published in 2001. This study indicates that
researchers have far to go in understanding and assessing how
development projects work. The author shows that, often, the
perception of failure is not shared by those whom were intended to
benefit. She uses a case study of Samoan villagers introduced to
cattle farming to examine the wider development process and
challenge the conventional theories. By drawing on people-centred
perspectives that give much greater weight to the role of culture
in development, the volume does not simply criticize development
project management, but suggests practical and positive ways
forward, encouraging spontaneous indigenous development which
should be supported by projects where appropriate.
