'Whilst the values of community development are - or should be - universal (social justice, equality, respect, dignity, etc.), the practice of community development needs to be grounded in a specific context. This rich and detailed book provides both an illuminating national case study (from post-apartheid South Africa) and also, as is missing from many texts, a solid and welcome attempt at theory-building.' Gary Craig, Durham University, UK 'Anyone interested in community development approaches and community development work will benefit by reading this book. For anyone who wants to understand the different traditions of community development, but also the community development practice on the ground, will find the stories and examples of community development work within South Africa, as portrayed by Peter Westoby, fascinating and very illuminating for their own community development practice.' Lucius Botes, University of the Free State, South Africa "This is a book with an important message about the benefit of particular kinds of community development initiatives." Karen Lyons, Emeritus, International Social Work, London Metropolitan University.More details
