Description
This reader brings together fourteen of the most important articles on microfinance to have been published since 1990. These contributions illustrate the major developments, in Microfinance during the period and, together with the editor’s introductory analysis, provide an invaluable overview of the field.
Some chapters show how certain aspects of the field have changed quite dramatically. While others cover issues that have continued throughout the years to preoccupy practitioners and policy makers. Others raise critical and worrying concerns about the future of Microfinance. All have been written by experienced authorities, with practical experience, and several are widely regarded as seminal contributions in the field.
Microfinance will be useful for students and others who are looking for a wide ranging introduction to the subject, for national and international policy makers and donors and for people who work in the field and are looking for a broad presentation of trends and alternative strategies.
