- Abandon Affluence
Resource Type: Book This work reviews the most recent evidence on major global problems, examining resource and energy scarcity, environmental destruction, Third World underdevelopment, international conflict, and the deteriorating quality of life. The author argues these problems are ultimately generated by the West's commitment to affluence and growth inherent in its economic system. Only fundamental social change, not technical solutions, can provide the solution.

Evaluating a Participatory Learning Process Resource Type: Book Published: 1989 Critics have argued that, instead of helping Africans to achieve greater self-reliance, aid has often increased their dependence and vulnerability to forces over which they exercise no control. This book provides concrete evidence that a participatory methodology not only provides donor agencies with a better insight into the workings of projects they aid, but also strengthens grassroots movements and national capacity to use aid more effectively.
