Download or read book Beyond ESAP written by Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report emphasizes the need to design an alternative development model to the Economic Structural Adjustment Programme (ESAP) in Zimbabwe. While acknowledging that SAPs are necessary, the study shows that they are insufficient in fostering development (that is, growth with equity). Zimbabwe's economy is characterized by a number of structural rigidities such as unequal access to land and finance whilst a large proportion of its population is engaged in the informal sector. It is the contention of the report that under such conditions, there is nothing inherent in ESAP policies that will lead to development. The main focus of the report, as opposed to SAPs, is to redefine the role of the state in the economy. While SAPs emphasize the rolling back of the state, this report is rooted in the premise that market failures are rampant in most less developed countries, including Zimbabwe. The state needs to intervene in factor markets, in the development of industrial and technological capabilities in order to foster competitiveness, etc, so as to deal with such market failures.

Download or read book Understanding Gender in the African Context written by Kurebwa, Jeffrey and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-04-10 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most significant dimensions of gender studies is that it is political. It raises questions about power in society and how and why power is differentially distributed between different genders. It asks questions about who has power over whom, in which situations, how power is exercised, and how it is, and can be, challenged. Different theories and perspectives within gender studies have different approaches to these questions and look for answers in different social processes. Many debates are on-going, as new data is revealed and new theories are put forth. Understanding Gender in the African Context is a scholarly reference that explores the complexities of the ideologies and social patterns that contribute to the field of gender studies. Featuring a range of topics such as human rights, feminism, and social media, this book is ideal for policymakers, sociologists, social scientists, civil society organizations, government officials, academicians, researchers, and students.

Download or read book Alternative Development Strategies for the Post 2015 Era written by Jose Antonio Alonso and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economic crisis of 2008-2009 exposed systemic failings at the core of economic policy making worldwide. The crisis came on top of several other crises, including skyrocketing and highly volatile world food and energy prices and climate change. This book argues that new policy approaches are needed to address such devastating global development challenges and to avoid the potentially catastrophic consequences to livelihoods worldwide that would result from present approaches. The contributors to the book are independent development experts, brought together by the UN to identify a development strategy capable of promoting a broad-based economic recovery and at the same time guaranteeing social equity and environmental sustainability both within countries and internationally. This new development approach seeks to promote the reforms needed to improve global governance, providing a more equitable distribution of global public goods. The contributors offer a critical evaluation of past development experiences and report on their creative search for new and well-thought out answers for the future. They suggest that economic progress, fairer societies and environmental sustainability can be compatible objectives, but only when pursued simultaneously by all.

Download or read book Development Crises and Alternative Visions written by Gita Sen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than half of the world's farmers are women. They are the majority of the poor, the uneducated and are the first to suffer from drought and famine. Yet their subordination is reinforced by well-meaning development policies that perpetuate social inequalities. During the 1975-85 United Nations Decade for the Advancement of Women their position actually worsened. This book analyses three decades of policies towards Third World women. Focusing on global economic and political crises - debt, famine, militarization, fundamentalism - the authors show how women's moves to organize effective strategies for basic survival are central to an understanding of the development process.
Download or read book The Political Economy of Emerging Markets and Alternative Development Paths written by Judit Ricz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-17 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the continuation of our research on economic and developmental policy-making in the global semi-periphery in the post-crisis cycle (see our two recently published volumes titled ‘Market-Liberalism and Economic Patriotism in Capitalist Systems’ edited by Gerőcs and Szanyi, 2019, Palgrave Macmillan and ‘The Post-Crisis Developmental State – Perspectives from the Global Periphery’ edited by Gerőcs and Ricz, 2021). Our new volume aims to be a contribution to the analysis of emerging market economies’ alternative development trajectories, as we explore the new perspectives on semi-peripheral dependent development since the Global Financial Crisis and especially amidst the new global pandemic, the COVID-19. The scope of comparative capitalism research has also been altered accordingly to include the analysis of emerging economies outside the core of the world system, and to make intertemporal comparisons possible (such as to define and characterise historical waves of state capitalism). Still, we are convinced that to better understand the current wave of state capitalism and to explore its national varieties there is a need to critically reconsider existing theoretical approaches and methodologies, and to search for new ones, if necessary. This book aims to be a contribution to the analysis of emerging market economies' alternative development trajectories and explores new perspectives on semi-peripheral dependent development, especially amidst COVID-19.
