This book critically examines the concept of self-help in rural development policies in Australia and other Western countries. It explores the shift of responsibility for regeneration programs to local communities, analyzing both the challenges and implications of this approach. Using a Foucauldian governmentality framework, the author argues that self-help is not simply empowerment or abandonment by a shrinking state, but a new mode of governing rural development in advanced liberal societies. The book offers a theoretical and practical insight into contemporary rural policy and governance.
