    Edition 1
    • Proposes a new way of analyzing development projects and policies, based on post-development and complexity theories, and New Institutional Economics
    • Analyzes the connections between literacy, civil society, gender equity, and economic development, using a World Bank funded Women’s Literacy Project in Senegal as a case study
    • Gives insight to the local set-up and implementation of a World Bank project and to the global-local relationships between donor and recipient
    • Analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of public-private partnerships, which are increasingly employed by donor agencies to implement social services
    • Shows how a development project is entangled in the global economy and demonstrates how it responds to local, national and donor requirements
    • Makes use of abundant quotes from project stakeholders to give local people a voice and to illustrate their encounter with a development project
