Recenzii
“Bringing an appropriately political focus to bear on the discussion around community development, this interesting and stimulating collection provides an inclusively international and critical overview of the complex and constant interplay between the processes of community development, politics, and power.”
“I encourage community developers and academics alike to read this work. It provides the reader with an interesting and in-depth discourse on how to think about the topic and gives solid examples of how various countries are thinking about community organizing and implementing community development projects.”
“Full of analytical power and hopeful stories of how community development can support political change.”
