The Third World Tomorrow by Paul Harrison

"Inside the Third World", the author's previous book, described why the poor in the Third World stayed poor. He now follows it up with this analysis of the new ideas which are beginning to break down the relentless cycles of deprivation. In his reports from Asia, Africa and Latin America, the author shows how the concepts, now spreading in the West, of "people's participation", "self-help", co-operatives and small-scale appropriate technologies, are actually being put into practice - from self-built and managed townships in the Sahel and village industries in India, to the People's School in Bangladesh and barefoot doctors in Peru.
