SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Taking a historical perspective, this book charts the emergence of poverty reduction and governance at the centre of development. It shows that the Poverty Reduction paradigm marks a shift in the wider liberal project that underpins development. It shows how problems of governing the poor and delivering services are framed in development practice.
