Institutionalizing Development Policies and Resource Strategies in Eastern Afric

"This volume starts from the premise that development policy is about interventions involving institutional arrangements. Such arrangements impact on socio-economic processes, but differentially so, thus often creating 'winners' and 'losers'. By implication this causes many development interventions to become contested terrain. Sponsoring agencies, intermediaries and different categories among the 'target' groups all have different stakes in institutional interventions, and as such they may perceive them in highly contrasting terms." "This book's concern is with the political element in the design of development institutions and interventions."--BOOK JACKET.
