- Why can Asia now feed its rapidly growing population, but Africa continues to experience famine? This book is the outcome of a three-year project coordinated by a group of Swedish researchers with collaborating scholars from Africa and Asia. It provides a comparative study between Asian agricultural development during the Green Revolution in food production and the current problematic agricultural situation in sub-Saharan Africa. Based on case studies of eight African and eight Asian countries (focusing on the early part of the Green Revolution), this book presents a causal and explanatory model of Asian green revolutions. It discusses why such progress has been made in Asia, but has not yet occurred in Africa. It also examines the implications of the case studies for future development in Africa.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- What can sub-Saharan Africa learn from Asian experiences in addressing its food crisis? / Historical and comparative study of agricultural development in seven Asian countries. Comparison of African case studies in eight countries in SSA: macro studies based on secondary data and interviews with key persons and, to complement this, village surveys and questionnaires involving more than 3000 smallholders. The performance of African smallholders is held back by a number of economic, political and institutional factors at regional, national and international levels. Positive tone: it is indeed possible to reverse the downhill slide with regard to the food situation in SSA by means of policy measures on the parts of African governments and by the international community.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The overwhelming majority of people living in poverty are small-scale farmers and agricultural workers. To reach the UN Millennium Development Goals of halving world poverty by 2015, agricultural development and enhanced productivity must play a key role.Taking Sweden’s ”Policy for Global Development” as the point of departure, the purpose of this book is to highlight linkages and conflicts of interest between the developed and developing countries in agriculture, trade and environmental management, as well as the potential for enhanced coherence.

Look Who's Talking! Second thoughts about NGOs as representing Civil Society
- 2009

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are major players in development aid today. It is widely believed they represent civil society and that, for example, the UN and the World Bank would be strengtened if NGOs were given a larger influence over policy formulation and development. As one can hardly speak of an NGO community, the issue of representation is far from easily solved. NGOs often compete for visibility, clients and influence, and representation leaves a lot to be desired. Hence, governments' and intergovernmental institutions' reluctance to accept immediately NGOs as partners, may be necessary for NGOs to become representative and, paradoxically, for strengthening civil society as well.
