"Culture and Development is an important text for
introductory nd midlevel undergraduate classes and development
practitioners looking for a comprehensive, critical and
interdisciplinary alternative to "business as usual"
Economic Geography
"Overall, the book is an excellent introduction to
anthropological and development studies literature on
representations, power and culture. While this literature boomed in
the 1990s, its theoretical language and disciplinary dispersal made
it difficult for students and practitioners to keep up with the
debates. Culture and Development provides just such a
readable account for student and teacher alike." Progress in
Human Geography
"Culture and development takes a wide-ranging, yet in-depth approach to its subject which lends it both coherence and authority. As an innovative introduction to these themes, this book is to be highly recommended." The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute
