Van BeusekomPublished by Heinemann in their 'Social History of Africa' series in 2002, 214 pages. Paperback (S8295V)From the rear side cover: This study, an in-depth examination of the interaction between French colonial development theory and practice at the Office du Niger during its irrigation pro­jcct in French Soudan (Mali), focuses on how and why development policies emerge, persist, and change. Describing the daily interactions between project staff and African settlers recruited for the scheme, the author argues that Africans not only influenced farming and marketing practices, but also reshaped French concepts of rural development. Most importantly, they challenged and trans­formed French colonial perceptions of Africans and African societies. By showing the influence African farmers had on French planners in colonial Mali, this study raises questions about the authority to determine development policy that much recent scholarship has attributed to large Western institutions. This book will be of importance to historians of colonialism in Africa as well as to scholars, students, and policy makers working on issues of development theory and practice. The condition of the book is generally excellent. The covers are clean and bright, the spine is tight and intact, and all pages are clean, intact, unblemished and tightly bound. .corners {width: 78%;margin: 0px auto;background-color: #e2d9f8;color: #fff;padding: 10px;/* Border Radius Style */border-radius: 15px;When we post our books, we take great care in packaging them - first your book will be wrapped in bubblewrap, which protects the book and even keeps out any rain (in the event that it's raining when the postie delivers it!).
