Download or read book Jua Kali Kenya written by Kenneth King and published by James Currey. This book was released on 1996 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kenya was where the term 'informal sector' was first used in 1971. During the 1980s the term 'jua kali' - in Swahili 'hot sun' - came to be used of the informal sector artisans, such as carworkers and metalworkers, who were working under the hot sun because of a lack of premises. Gradually it came to refer to anybody in self-employment. And in 1988 the government set up the Jua Kali Development Programme. In this remarkable book Kenneth King brings the subject alive through the photographs and life histories of jua kali people. He has also revisited, twenty years later, many of the artisans whom he interviewed exhaustively in the period 1972-4 and about whom he wrote in The African Artisan, one of the first full length studies to be published on the informal sector. For donors, NGOs and for national governments, the book offers many relevant examples, and some cautions, about what has been achieved by ordinary Kenyas, mostly without government support. It will prove equally valuable for students and teachers of development policy, technology policy and of education and training policies not least because of its superb bibliography of over 700 entries related to small enterprise development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely and important work studies Kenya's small scale manufacturers.

Gray investigates the development of these sub-sectors by taking a strategic management approach. Such an approach allows the author to assess enterprise competitiveness and profitability within industries.

The book will appeal to many different audiences including development agencies concerned with the economic development community and the international academic community.
