Content:
This pathbreaking book grapples with an established reality: well-intentioned international development programs often generate local conflict, some of which escalates to violence. To understand how such conflicts can be managed peacefully, the authors have undertaken a comprehensive mixed-methods analysis of one of the world's largest participatory development projects, the highly successful Kecamatan Development Program (KDP), which was launched by the World Bank and the Indonesian government in the late 1990s and now operates in every district across Indonesia
Content:
Institutional change, development projects, and local conflict dynamics -- The conflict-development nexus revisited -- Methods, contexts, and project characteristics -- When do development projects generate conflict? -- Can development projects be part of a solution? -- Indirect effects of development projects on local conflict dynamics -- How contexts shape project performance and conflict trajectories -- Contesting development: policies and projects as if social theory mattered
