註釋Poverty in rural areas, particularly in developing country has been a subject of many theories and research. This book tries to investigate the interconnections between poverty and 'vulnerability'. The 'vulnerability' indices have been generated in the local context of Padavedu Panchayat in Thiruvunnamalai district of Tamil Nadu state in South India. It further examines in depth about the livelihood strategy of the local community there through different development initiatives. Joint Forest Management (JFM) and Micro-Credit programs there are critically analyzed. In the end, different areas of further study and recommendations are made.
