In this controversial book, Terry Robson shatters the myth that the current community development movement has the potential to change the nature of society. Robson criticises community development organisations for losing touch with the very communities they are seeking to serve. Against a background of continuing civil and political conflict, Robson examines case studies in Ireland, Britain, Romania and the United States.
