The Low-Income Consumer By Alwitt Linda F And Donley Thomas D. California, Sage, 1996., Mithileshwar Jha

IIMB Management Review

The book under review focuses on the low income group or the poor as consumers. The low income consumer in general is neglected by commercial marketers as well as marketing academics. Even politicians who glorify the poor for their own ends tend to ignore them, especially when it comes to looking at their standards of living and their existence as consumers.

An Assessment Of Grass Roots Participation In The Development Of Egypt, Saad Eddin Ibrahim, Amani Kandil, Moheb Zaki, Nagah Hassan

Faculty Books

This study aims to examine the extent and effectiveness of grassroots participation in Egyptian private voluntary organizations (PVOs). In addition, it traces the historical development of PVOs in Egypt and the laws that have been governing their activities. The authors deduce from this study that legal restrictions and bureaucratic impediments―not financial constraints―are the main obstacles that limit the activities of PVOs, and come up with specific recommendations to enhance grassroots participation in Egyptian society.
