Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 340 pages. Development's current focus - poverty reduction and good governance - signals a turn away from the older neoliberal preoccupation with structural adjustment, privatization and downsizing the state. For some, the new emphases on empowerin g and securing the poor through basic service delivery, local partnership, decen tralization and institution building constitute a decisive break with the past a nd a whole set of new development possibilities beyond neoliberalism. Taking a wider historical perspective, this book charts the emergence of poverty reducti on and governance at the centre of development. It shows that the Poverty Reduct ion paradigm does indeed mark a shift in the wider liberal project that has unde rpinned development: precisely what is new, and what this means for how the poor are governed, are described here in detail. This book provides a compelling h istory of development doctrine and practice, and in particular offers the first comprehensive account of the last twenty years, and development's shift towards a new political economy of institution building, decentralized governance and lo cal partnerships. The story is illustrated with extensive case studies from firs t hand experience in Vietnam, Uganda, Pakistan and New Zealand.
