Rural Development and Survival Strategies in Central Paraguay (Latin America Studies)

Although much attention has been paid to the study of colonization in Paraguay since the 1960s, some key issues have been neglected as themes of research, such as the question of whether the settlement schemes have been successful in relieving congestion and in developing the Central Region. The central objective of this study is, therefore, to analyze to what extent the policy of agricultural colonization has indeed relieved congestion in the Central Region and alleviated the plight of the rural poor.Zoomers, E.
