Download or read book Robert McNamara s Other War written by Patrick Allan Sharma and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert McNamara is best known for his key role in the escalation of the Vietnam War as U.S. secretary of defense under Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson. The familiar story begins with the brilliant young executive transforming Ford Motor Company, followed by his rise to political power under Kennedy, and culminating in his downfall after eight years of failed military policies. Many believe McNamara's fall from grace after Vietnam marked the end of his career. They were wrong. In Robert McNamara's Other War, Patrick Allan Sharma reveals the previously untold story of what happened next. As president of the World Bank from 1968 to 1981, McNamara changed the way many people thought about international development by shifting the World Bank's focus to poverty alleviation. Though his efforts to redeem himself after his failures in Vietnam were well-intentioned, Sharma argues, his expansion of the World Bank's agenda contributed to a decline in the quality of its activities. McNamara's policies at the Bank also helped lay the groundwork for the economic crises that have plagued the developing world during the past three decades. Not only has Sharma crafted an engaging chronicle of one of the most enigmatic figures in modern American history; he has also produced one of the first detailed histories of the World Bank. He mines previously unstudied Bank documents that have only recently become available to researchers as well as material from archives on three continents. Sharma's extensive research shows that McNamara's influence extended well beyond Vietnam and that his World Bank years may be his most enduring legacy.

Book Revolution and State in Modern Mexico

Download or read book Revolution and State in Modern Mexico written by Adam David Morton and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-10-04 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in an updated edition, this groundbreaking study develops a new approach to understanding the formation of the postrevolutionary state in Mexico. In a shift away from dominant interpretations, Adam David Morton considers the construction of the revolution and the modern Mexican state through a fresh analysis of the Mexican Revolution, the era of import substitution industrialization, and neoliberalism. Throughout, the author makes interdisciplinary links among geography, political economy, postcolonialism, and Latin American studies in order to provide a new framework for analyzing the development of state power in Mexico. He also explores key processes in the contestation of the modern state, specifically through studies of the role of intellectuals, democratization and democratic transition, and spaces of resistance. As Morton argues, all these themes can only be fully understood through the lens of uneven development in Latin America. Centrally, the book shows how the history of modern state formation and uneven development in Mexico is best understood as a form of passive revolution, referring to the ongoing class strategies that have shaped relations between state and civil society. As such, Morton makes an important interdisciplinary contribution to debates on state formation relevant to Mexican studies, postcolonial and development studies, historical sociology, and international political economy by revitalizing the debate on the uneven and combined character of development in Mexico and throughout Latin America. In so doing, he convincingly contends that uneven development can once again become a tool for radical political economy analysis in and beyond the region. A substantive new epilogue engages the main theoretical debates that have emerged since the book was first published, while also exploring the dominant geographies of power and resistance that are shaping state space in Mexico in the twenty-first century. And now a Spanish edition, Revolución y Estado en México moderno (México, D.F.: Siglo XXI, 2017), is available as well. Click here to see the book trailer.

Book The Building Blocks of Participation

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Examines how a capacity for mobilizing community participation can be built into a project's design and staffing. This paper answers that question by analyzing, step-by-step, one case rich in experience: the decentralization project in Mexico and its predecessor, the PIDER (Programa Integral para el Desarrollo Rural) program. The time span of this series of projects stretches from the early 1970s to the early 1990s"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

Book Integrated Rural Development in Latin America

Download or read book Integrated Rural Development in Latin America written by Richard L. J. Lacroix and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated rural development projects have a number of functional components which are operationally unrelated. Agricultural production promoting activities such as the extension of credit are combined with social components such as the provision of health services and with infrastructure building works such as rural electrification. Although the concept of a multipronged approach to rural development appears sound and attractive to many, its actual application has in many instances been disappointing. In particular, concrete achievements and hence measurable benefits often fall short of planning goals. It is argued in this study that the modesty in achievements experienced, so far, is due as much to the complexity of the problem, rural underdevelopment, as it is to the result of structure and inexperience of the mostly public sector institutions that are asked to implement the project designs. Concluding that the concept of integrated rural development merits further application, the study recommends pursuing an institutionalization of project development activities, (2) enlisting private sector land development companies as executing agencies; and (3) supporting financially and with technical assistance the many nongovernmental agencies that operate in rural development.
