Reviews

The book provides a very good account of the process of decentralised planning in Kerala along with its theoretical underpinnings. The book should be essential reading for all those interested in decentralised planning. Journal Of Development Studies An extraordinarily well informed and detailed description of the campaign. Journal of Asian Studies A particularly insightful analysis of the political conditions and configurations that made the campaign possible and those that present important obstacles to its full institutionalization. If democracy is about the actual practice of citizenship, then this book provides a critically important exploration of a particularly ambitious and large-scale experiment in democratic deepening.
