520 _aThis book is an indispensable, down-to-earth, richly illustrated guide to a variety of quantitative and qualitative methods for research and practice in development settings. Providing practical examples, techniques and tools for different types of studies, Britha Mikkelsen examines in detail both the concept of participation and ethical considerations in field work, and stresses methodological pluralism and dialogue in development planning. The major part of the book is devoted to new rapid and participatory methods, viewing them as an important adjustment of or complement to other long-established qualitative and quantitative field study methods. The selection of methods is a reflection of changed perceptions of North-South and insider-outsider relations, and highlights different techniques for studying selected development issues with a focus on people's knowledge and their active involvement in shaping their own destiny.
