Nawazali A. Jiwa has published a bibliography entitled “The Aga Khan Rural Support Programme (AKRSP): A Bibliography of Secondary Sources,” in International Journal of Contemporary Sociology 58, no. 1 (2021): 87–143.
Abstract:
The Aga Khan Rural Support Programme Pakistan (AKRSP-P) and the Aga Khan Rural Support Programme India (AKRSP-I) are non-governmental organizations (NGOs) operating under the aegis of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN). While these two NGOs have generated a considerable corpus of information on their own, the constantly-evolving body of secondary sources on the AKRSPs also documents their activities in various areas of rural development. This bibliography represents an attempt at compiling a listing of secondary sources about the AKRSPs within particular parameters. Sources include books, book chapters, periodical articles, scholarly journal studies, master’s theses, and doctoral dissertations. In sum, these sources constitute a bibliography of 475 entries available in both print and/or online formats. The variety of entries were searched for and found in a multitude of different information resources. This bibliography will be of special interest to those both within and outside the diverse field of rural sociology.
