  • "'Overseas aid' and 'international development' are terms that covers activities - and abuses. This guide explains what 'development' is - and explores its political and economic roots in history. It shows what can happen in the name of development and argues for a organic, social approach with those it seeks to serve as equal partners in process. Maggie Black traces the history of development from its post-colonial beginnings, and examines the relationship between development and economic growth, the impact development has had on the living conditions of the poor and on the environment, and whether development will have a specific role in the future, or whether it will simply be subsumed under the concept of globalization."
