Culture and Public Action offers a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between culture and development. Guided by leading scholars such as Arjun Appadurai, Mary Douglas, and Amartya Sen, the volume challenges the notion that culture is a static backdrop - revealing instead the dynamic, contested, and transformative character of cultural processes. With illuminating case studies from Africa, Asia, and Latin America, the book examines how cultural factors intersect with issues like community-based development, ethnic conflict, famine relief, gender discrimination, and HIV-AIDS policy. It reveals that cultural processes can serve both as catalysts for social and economic transformation and as instruments of exclusion and inequality. By proposing a 'cultural lens' for future research and public policy on development, Culture and Public Action offers an accessible, balanced, and engaging analysis that calls for a rethinking of the cultural dimensions influencing collective action and economic aspirations.
