HANDBOOK ON DEVELOPMENT POLICY AND MANAGEMENT KIRKPATRICK C. Księgarnia

Handbook on Development Policy and Management

'This comprehensive collection contains an excellent introduction to all major issues of development policy.'

Frances Stewart, Queen Elizabeth House, University of Oxford, UK

This major new handbook on international development policy and management covers a broad spectrum of contemporary topics across all the major areas of interest. With over 40 chapters, the book comprehensively explores the many themes and issues of significance for both policy and implementation, and provides easily accessible reference material on current practice and research. The 42 contributors come from a diverse range of backgrounds and enjoy international reputations in their chosen fields.

The handbook is organized in two parts, one dealing with policy issues and the other with implementation and management issues. The first part, on policy, covers a wide range of economic, social and environmental topics. The second part explores the political context of implementation and development practice and goes on to cover a range of issues relating to management in the public and non-state sectors and the management of development projects. Each individual chapter provides background information on theory and practice, describes the current 'state of play', examines prospects for the future and includes an annotated guide to further reading.

This extensive handbook will become an essential reference on international development policy and management. Although primarily designed for postgraduate students and scholars of development studies, it will also be welcomed by development practitioners, NGOs and aid agencies.
