| Synopsis: |
Using recent research on development projects around the world, this book argues that culture has become an explicit tool and framework for development discourse and practice. Providing a theoretical and empirically informed critique, this informative book includes conceptual overviews and case studies on topics such as:development for indigenous peoplenatural resource managementsocial capital and global markets for Third World musicpost-apartheid South Africacultural difference in the USA's late capitalism. The editor concludes by evaluating the outcomes of development's `cultural turn', proposing a framework for future work in this field. By combining case studies from both `Third World' and `First World' countries, the book, ideal for those in the fields of geography, culture and development studies, raises innovative questions about the `transferability' of notions of culture across the world, and the types of actors involved. |
