In:
Economic and Political WeeklySummary: Social science literature and development practice has together discovered the rural community as the `site' for development. This presupposes the rural community as a monolithic and undifferentiated entity. Local traditions point to a different direction - and need to be better grasped so as to enrich both social science literature and development practice. This becomes even more relevant, given the increasingly critical role of membership organisations in local development initiatives and in an overall scenario when the relevance of political action has been brought back in the cause of development. - Reproduced.
