Opis

This title was first published in 2000:  Previously published theories represent a vision of ’sustainable development’ that the local farmers working on the projects do not recognize. This volume puts forward a new set of ’sustainable indicators’ which is based on a detailed case study of a Nigerian development project spanning six years. For the first time, this takes into consideration the views and perspectives of the local farmers and in doing so addresses key issues and will prove important to anyone putting sustainability into practice.
