• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Assessing the World Bank's attempts to combat global poverty over the past 50 years, anthropologist and former World Bank Advisor Glynn Cochrane argues that instead of the Bank's prevailing strategy of "management by seclusion," poverty alleviation requires personal engagement with the poorest by helpers with hands-on local and cultural skills.
