Surveys the theoretical foundations for a philosophy of development - including the work of Albert Hirschman, Paolo Freire, John Dewey, and Soren Kierkegaard. The author offers a practical suggestion of how goals of development can be better set and met. He shifts the locus of initiative from the would-be helpers to the doers.
