Community development across borders

Avoiding dangerous practices in a globalizing world

Lena Dominelli

CISCODEV, School of Social Sciences, Southampton University, Southampton SO17 1BJ, UK L.Dominelli{at}soton.ac.uk

Community development (CD) has a long tradition of crossing borders through initiatives that transfer lessons across them. Some of these have been mutually bene.cial. Others have not. In this article this transposition of CD models is problematized, together with a consideration of how such exchanges might avoid becoming exploitative and/or disrespectful of local needs.

Cet article problé matise ces transpositions de modè les de dé veloppement communautaire et examine comment de tels é changes peuvent é viter l'exploitation et le manque de respect des besoins locaux.
