About this book
Reviews
“Decentring Development is an important and interesting theoretical contribution to this pragmatic and oft-repeated question. … This reviewer enjoyed the critical observations and analysis of development in this book. Jakimow makes a strong case for the extension of critical and decentred approaches into donor-funded development research. … I would suggest that development practitioners are surprisingly reflexive about their profession and would welcome Decentring Development … .” (Melissa Johnston, Journal of Contemporary Asia, Vol. 46 (3), 2016)
