Summing Up
Will Lessons Ever Be Learned?
This chapter summarizes what little has been achieved in Egypt’s deserts to date, especially in terms of employment and livelihoods created, and the costs of such development efforts, both direct and indirect. It looks at questions of patronage and paternalism and social engineering. It also answers the question of why development has been so elusive, and why lessons are never learned.
Keywords: Patronage, Paternalism, Social engineering, Development efforts, Employment, Livelihood, Costs
