Title: Rural Progress, Rural Decay: Neoliberal Adjustment Policies and Local Initiatives
Description: How do rural development programs, especially those run by nongovernmental organizations, cope in a time of structural adjustment programs and economical liberalization? Using Ecuador as a representative example, the authors of Rural Progress, Rural Decay explore the consequences of neoliberal macroeconomic policies for equitable development—and demonstrate that NGOs can make little headway in promoting “poor people's entrepreneurship” in what remains an essentially big-business-dominated economic and political environment.]
