Description: "Public Policy in the Community explores the way that community and the ideas associated with it - social capital, civil society, mutuality, networks - have been used in policy and public debate since the 1960s. It asks how far existing approaches to empowerment and participation have worked, drawing on the author's own extensive experience and a wide range of examples from different parts of the world."--BOOK JACKET.
