The concept of development

Meer over het boek

The book explores the concept of development from the perspective of small organized coffee producers in Oaxaca, Mexico, questioning the disparity between media portrayals of happiness and the reality of community struggles. It emphasizes the need for a grassroots understanding of development, focusing on the lived experiences of families within two organic coffee-producing organizations. Through their stories and values, the book seeks to redefine development in a way that prioritizes community satisfaction and well-being over conventional metrics.
