Confronting microfinance : undermining sustainable development

Confronting Microfinance: Undermining Sustainable Development, edited by Milford Bateman, critically examines the role of microfinance in the context of sustainable development. The book argues that, despite its initial promise to empower low-income communities, microfinance often exacerbates economic vulnerability rather than alleviating it. Through a collection of essays, the contributors highlight issues such as excessive debt, exploitative interest rates, and the failure of microfinance institutions to provide lasting support. The work emphasizes the need for a more holistic and inclusive approach to financial services that genuinely fosters economic and social development. By proposing viable alternatives and encouraging broader discussions about reform in the microfinance sector, the book aims to illuminate the complexities of microfinance and its implications for global development.
