Product Description

Review

Katy Gardner treads a finely judged line, keeping both neoliberal developers and anti-globalisation activists at arm's length in order to describe relations at a human scale, thereby doing for development what anthropology ought. She addresses a number of highly topical issues include the paradoxical developmental effects of extractive industries, Corporate Social Responsibility as a form of neoliberal governmentality (handled especially well), microfinance and corruption. This is an extremely rare opening up of the world of ordinary people affected by such schemes. (David Mosse, Professor of Social Anthropology at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.)

Katy Gardner is Professor of Anthropology at the University of Sussex and is the author of several books including Global Migrants, Local Lives: Travel and Transformation in Rural Bangladesh (1995) and, with David Lewis, Anthropology, Development and the Post-modern Challenge (Pluto, 1996).
