Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book makes the case for informal sector institutions in development theory. Through practical examples andinterviews conducted in Kenya, the author captures how ordinary people organize themselves to meet dailyeconomic and development challenges. The author traces how ordinary people (wananchi) use nonmainstream mechanisms in the form vyama (social groups) to enable individual, group and communitydevelopment. The book offers insights into the evolution of vyama (institutions of hope) and the role theseinstitutions continue to play in realizing economic growth: wealth creation and distribution; investments, socialprotection; and general community development.The work shows how, despite historical disruptions, modernization and neo-liberal policies, ordinary peoplecreatively borrow from tradition. In the process, they use collective mechanisms for resource mobilizationinvestment, risk-sharing and shared gains for the common good. The author offers pointers into the future andhow the chama concept can become mainstream in a people's economic development.What others say'The analysis is rigorous. It is highly original, emotive, and an excellent piece of work. It makes a majorcontribution to our knowledge of the proto-proletariat and the informal sector in the developing world.How the author beautifully weaves anecdotes from classic al African novels into her analysis to reinforceher argument makes this work distinctive and unique.' - Professor MBK Darkoh, University ofBotswana'This book is based on real life cases in an area that most scholars have not ventured into. It is a majoraddition of new findings in the body of knowledge. The presentation is clear, understandable and wouldappeal to most readers.' -Paul Kamau, PhD, Senior Research Fellow, University of Nairobi'The strength of this book is the way it has managed to present the lives of the ordinary people as nothopeless, but rather the base where future development for Africa could be emerging. The book startsfrom the grassroots and the development actions and innovations taking place there based on the needsas experienced by the ordinary people, rather than the technical fixes of development experts that followthe books rather than the actual needs of the people being developed.' - Professor Beth MainaAhlberg, PhD, Professor of International Health, Uppsala University'This book demonstrates how ordinary citizens have discovered the power in tapping into social relationsand are proactively solving their own socio-political and economic challenges. It calls for theincorporation of the ordinary citizen in development planning with a view of enabling them to receivevalue from and add value to the globalisation and integration process. For anyone who is interested to seeAfrica play an important role in the global agenda, this is not a book to be ignored.' -- Josephat JumaManaging Editor, The African Executive magazine.
