Since their fabled inception in Bangladesh with the Grameen Bank in 1976, microcredit banks and projects have multiplied and taken root across the Globe. Today, microcredit is one of the most successful programs in the economic development toolkit of bilateral and multilateral aid agencies and nongovernmental organizations working with the world’s poor. National projects directly aimed at alleviating women’s poverty also rely quite heavily on microcredit schemes; the smaller loan sizes allow women with no collateral to become borrowers for the first time. Since the collapse of communism in 1989, the countries of Southeastern Europe have also experienced an influx of microcredit banks and projects, many specifically aimed at the region’s women. In the post-socialist context, however, these microcredit banks have met with far less success than similar projects in the developing world. Ethnography and participantobservation are particularly useful in the study of microcredit schemes, since understanding the successes and failures of these programs depends very much on understanding the lived experiences of those seeking and utilizing the loans. Unfortunately, microcredit institutions are most often examined through the lens of economics, finance, or through a more policyoriented, development framework. In this brief paper, I will discuss some of the possible challenges facing microcredit schemes in countries with relatively recent histories of communism, and argue for a more ethnographic examination of microcredit schemes and their social, political and economic impacts on the participants." @default.
