Funding, Power and Community Development by Sarasij Majumder

This edited collection critically explores the funding arrangements governing contemporary community development and how they shape its theory and practice. International contributions from activists, practitioners and academics consider the evolution of funding in community development and how changes in policy and practice can be understood in relation to the politics of neoliberalism and contemporary efforts to build global democracy from the 'bottom up'.
"Funding, in austere times, is critical in community developmentThis book, however, makes an important contribution to our understanding of the costs, as well as benefits, of different funding models and their impact on community development principles and practice." Angus McCabe, University of Birmingham
