    In recent years, growing attention has centred on the role of law and legal institutions in development. This has coincided with a profound shift in thinking about the role of the state, and a reorientation of governance strategies towards the creation of suitable enabling environments for greater private and local initiative. Good laws and functioning legal institutions are essential contributors to the predictability, security and flexibility needed to define such environments. Conve rsely, poorly designed and implemented laws can constrain and inhibit investment, distort economic incentives and discourage appropriate government interventions.

    This paper outlines the role of sociological analysis in the design of agricultural investment projects, particularly those being prepared for funding by multilateral financing institutions. It is intended mainly to assist mission leaders as well as sociologists, anthropologists and socio-economists working for the FAO Investment Centre. Some observations and recommendations will also be relevant to Governments, lending agencies and consulting firms engaged in agricultural investment project for mulation. It covers basic concepts and principles, sociological analysis required for different types of projects, the range of options for its integration in the investment project cycle, and provides a practical guideline for the design and implementation of diagnostic studies of target groups and their farming systems.
