Popular participation, local democracy and grassroots organizing have become watchwords not only for social movements the world over but even for official development agencies. In refreshing contrast to the tendency to skate over the internal divisions and stratification that characterise all communities, this book asks the hard questions about the power of central bureaucracies, the lack of local skills and organizational experience, the impact of national and transnational structures, and social divisions.Not only does the reader learn an immense amount about the limits as well as potential of community initiatives in the South, but the new social movements approach is skilfully married with resource mobilization theory to develop a more nuanced and inclusive theoretical paradigm. This can help us to understand and advance communitybased forms of popular power in all their rich variety as one part of the solution to the development crisis.
