What Price for Privatization?

Informationen zum Autor By Elizabeth C. Parsons - Foreword by Ambassador Martin Brennan Klappentext This is a case study of the privatization process of Zambia's copper mines, an intervention carried out according to economic, political, and managerial criteria. What Price for Privatization? demonstrates how these ways of thinking were insufficient for grasping the local, lived context and argues that effective development policymaking can only be done when radical differences in cultural and religious worldviews are more fully understood and appreciated.
