Comparison of the impact of a centralized planning approach vs. a decentralized approach on rural development in KenyaOcholi, Justus Orwako January 1984 (has links)
Data used in this study showed that many rural development projects in Kenya are not successfully implemented. This failure among rural projects has a negative impact on rural development in Kenya. Therefore, the purpose of this research effort was to show whether a centralized planning approach or a decentralized planning approach would be most successful in implementing rural projects in Kenya.Three rural projects were examined to show which be used in developing rural Kenya. Based on the definitions stated in chapter one, one project was thought to be nationally planned and two projects were thought to be locally planned. However, research revealed that all the three projects were centrally planned. Research also showed that the area covered by the project and availability of the project's research component play an important part in the success of a rural development project.Recommendations were made for further research on rural development which would lead to better solutions in developing countries of Africa. / Department of Urban Planning

The Arcadian Enterprise : an enquiry into the nature and conditions of rural small businessAnderson, Alistair R. January 1995 (has links)
This thesis is a study of rural entrepreneurship which attempts to understand what it is that rural entrepreneurs do within the rural context. Our understanding of entrepreneurship is fragmentary, often narrowly focused and discipline bound. Entrepreneurial theory lacks even a limiting definition of the phenomenon. As Bartlett 1988 claims, it is an intellectual onion; if you keep peeling off the layers you are left with nothing and come away in tears. This seems to suggest that entrepreneurship is a process rather than an entity. Furthermore, a major focus of entrepreneurial research has been the entrepreneur as an individual, yet paradoxically, entrepreneurship is essentially a social act. Accordingly the central argument of this thesis is that in order to understand the entrepreneur we must place entrepreneurial action in its social context, we must study the process of entrepreneurship. This study therefore endeavours to investigate the actions of the entrepreneur in one context, rurality. Consequently this study is a detailed examination of a rural environment and the interrelationships of this environment and entrepreneurs. Its purpose is to try to establish the nature of the relationships between rurality and to specify the conditions of the entrepreneurial process.
