Описание
This book is about the issues that have arisen in watershed management as seen through social, economic, geographical, political perspectives. It argues for a more inclusive understanding of watershed management practices and in fact all community-oriented practices and development initiatives by showing the importance and role of good governance and expanding the base of participation. It shows through extensive case studies and participant observations of the functioning of watershed committees at the ground level that there is significant correlation between governance of watershed management and its democratic impact.It also shows the alarming lack of feedback mechanisms in developmental initiatives in India and argues for concrete steps in building-in such feedback loops at the policy-making stage itself.This will help students,policy makers, NGO activists,bureaucrats,and legislators.
