Description

Development Through Bricolage: Rethinking Institutions for Natural Resource Management by Frances Cleaver explores how institutions are formed through the patchwork of old and new practices, leading to 'institutional DIY' rather than design. The author examines the processes involved in institutional bricolage, including the renegotiation of norms, reinvention of tradition, legitimate authority, and people's role in shaping arrangements. Bricolage is seen as an inevitable process that can either reproduce social inequalities or create space for challenging them. Case studies from various countries illustrate the context-specific nature of bricolage and its challenges for development policy and practice.
