Reviews

In Postdevelopment in Practice, dynamic co-editors Elise Klein and Carlos Eduardo Morreo combine their talents to provide an inspirational volume. They marshal an exceptional group of emerging and established critical thinkers-academics, activists and artists from the global South and North-to explore alternate ways of being and living in a world that is increasingly hazardous to human and non-human species alike. This absorbing book theoretically interrogates and empirically documents diverse forms of `postdevelopment in practice'. Its future-focused perspectives will challenge and richly reward the politically-engaged reader. -- Jon Altman, Emeritus Professor, The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia
