By examining the policies of Australia and other Western nations, this book provides a critical account of the discourses and practices of self-help in contemporary rural development. Taking a Foucauldian governmentality perspective, it puts forward a theoretical analysis of the self-help concept, assessing it as a means of governing rural development in an advanced liberal manner.
