Description

Discarding the general tendency to adopt a narrow, economistic approach, the author of this volume highlights the real life possibilities and constraints facing a holistic, institutional approach to development planning. He provides practical suggestions for enriching the development process through effective plan implementation accompanied by an enhanced availability of institutional options. The result is a more meaningful multilevel framework to achieve people-centred and autocentric development with a human face.
