Culture and Development - A Critical Introduction Bewertungen

...a well written and researched textbook for the turn of the millenium...refreshing, readable, topical and relevant. Elsbeth Robson, Keele University Culture and Development is an important text for introductory nd midlevel undergraduate classes and development practitioners looking for a comprehensive, critical and interdisciplinary alternative to business as usual Economic Geography Overall, the book is an excellent introduction to anthropological and development studies literature on representations, power and culture. While this literature boomed in the 1990s, its theoretical language and disciplinary dispersal made it difficult for students and practitioners to keep up with the debates. Culture and Development provides just such a readable account for student and teacher alike. Progress in Human Geography Culture and development takes a wide--ranging, yet in--depth approach to its subject which lends it both coherence and authority. As an innovative introduction to these themes, this book is to be highly recommended. The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute
