by Sakiko Fukuda-Parr

Leading experts consider how development programs can increase the levels of knowledge, skill, technical know-how and productive capacity of populations in the South. The volume is organized into three parts on ownership, institutional capital and knowledge networks. They explore the participatory empowerment that builds capacity, a framework enabling social forces to contribute, and a new paradigm of knowledge in the network age. The result shows how, in future productivity, capacity development through technical cooperation can be successfully pursued.Contributors include Sunil Chako, Steve Denning, Sakiko Fukuda-Parr, Ruth Hill, Sanjay Lall, Carlos Lopes, Khalid Malik, Thandika Mkandawire, Raj Panday, and Joseph Stiglitz.
