Those involved in programmes and approaches to working with the rural poor have become steadily more aware of the importance of understanding not just the people they want to work with, but also the social, cultural and political context in which they live. The role of local institutions has been increasingly recognized, but little attention has been paid to ways of understanding the local institutions that shape the environment in which poor people live. What is it they do? Who exactly do they serve and how? How do they change over time? How can they be strengthened and made more equitable? How can they be made more accessible to the poor?

This book shows how participatory government can lead to the unjust and illegitimate exercise of power. It addresses the gulf between the almost universally fashionable rhetoric of participation, promising empowerment and appropriate development. Looking at what actually happens when consultants and activists promote and practice participatory development, this book offers a sharp challenge to the advocates of participatory development. Some contributors look at particular examples of failed participatory practiceothers present more conceptually-oriented analyses. Together they provide a new, rigorous, and provocative understanding of participatory development.
