Abstract: Do we use obscure words to impress our colleagues - or fashionable ones to win research proposals? How do poor people define their poverty? How can we use aid budgets most effectively? Are many of our actions against poverty simple, direct - and wrong? This collection of writings questions concepts, conventions and practices in development.
