I am Edward R. Carr a geographer and anthropologist whose career and research focus on exploring alternative ways of achieving meaningful and enduring improvements to human well-being. I worked in rural sub-Saharan Africa on issues of development and global change among various rural communities. My scholarship and teaching encourage students and development professionals to reexamine the sometimes-damaging preconceptions embedded in development theory; in my book Delivering Development: Globalization?s Shoreline and the Road to a Sustainable Future, I demonstrates how these commonly held beliefs about globalization and development have failed the global poor, and how to redefine what assistance to developing communities really means in an ever-changing world.
