520 8  In this book, Marta Harnecker, with Spanish economist José
       Bartolomé, shares some of her wisdom on how communities 
       everywhere can gain empowerment. For, when impoverished 
       people became involved in the planning process, they no 
       longer feel like beggars demanding solutions from the 
       state; they become the creators of their own destiny. Set 
       out in two parts; this book first demonstrates the 
       importance of community participants working outside a 
       hierarchy, to allow as much decentralization as possible. 
       The second part of the book centers on the methodology of 
       this process: the various tasks taken on by participants 
       and how, in planning processes over years, they are 
       carried out
