Book L   conomie contre le d  veloppement

Download or read book L conomie contre le d veloppement written by Christian Comeliau and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'évolution de notre monde apparaît de plus en plus inacceptable, sur le plan éthique et politique. Cette inquiétude provient de l'organisation de notre système : conception de l'homme et de la société centrée sur les ambitions individualistes et matérialistes, prédominance des préoccupations économiques sur les préoccupations sociales et priorité à la seule logique marchande. L'effort prioritaire du XXIe siècle doit donc être celui d'une refondation philosophique et éthique de cette conception, avant celui d'un remodelage de nos instruments économiques et techniques.

Book Les Impasses de la modernit    Critique de la marchandisation du monde

Download or read book Les Impasses de la modernit Critique de la marchandisation du monde written by Christian Coméliau and published by Média Diffusion. This book was released on 2009-10-01T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nées du siècle des lumières, les idées de progrès social, de modernité et de développement ont suscité d'immenses espérances. Mais les avatars les plus récents du système mondial dissipent peu à peu l'espoir d'un développement durable au bénéfice de tous. La modernité nous conduit aujourd'hui vers une triple impasse économique, sociale et écologique. Pourquoi ? Les valeurs initiales de la modernité ont été trahies, sa logique dévoyée : au nom de l'efficacité, le néolibéralisme assimile le progrès social à la marchandisation généralisée et prétend gérer la complexité du monde à l'aide d'un critère unique et simpliste : l'accumulation du profit. Une vision aussi réductionniste du monde appelle d'urgence une réflexion critique sur la nature et les limites de la relation marchande, mais aussi sur les principales conséquences de sa domination : incitation à une croissance indéfinie des productions marchandes alors même qu'elle n'est ni généralisable à toute la planète ni soutenable à long terme ; creusement continu des inégalités ; exclusion et marginalisation massives ; polarisation des relations internationales sur la seule exigence de compétitivité ; impuissance des pouvoirs publics à concevoir les dimensions non marchandes de l'intérêt général. Si le monde veut préserver l'ambition légitime du progrès social, il devra refonder la modernité sur des valeurs authentiques et remettre l'économie marchande au service des hommes.

Book excerpt: Que peut signifier la prospérité dans un monde soumis à des limites environnementales et sociales ? Dans cette édition substantiellement revue et réécrite, Tim Jackson apporte la démonstration que la mise en place d'une économie « post-croissance » est une tâche à la fois précise, définissable et chargée de sens. La publication de Prospérité sans croissance a marqué une étape cruciale dans le débat sur le développement durable. Dans cette édition substantiellement revue et réécrite, Tim Jackson apporte la démonstration que la mise en place d'une économie « post-croissance » est une tâche à la fois précise, définissable et chargée de sens. Sept ans après sa première publication, Prospérité sans croissance n'est plus un scénario radical chuchoté par quelques marginaux, mais une vision incontournable du progrès social dans le monde de l'après-crise. Donner une forme concrète à cette vision est la tâche la plus urgente de notre époque.

Book Le hasard de la preuve

Download or read book Le hasard de la preuve written by Judith Favereau and published by ENS Éditions. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En créant en 2003 le Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (ou J-PAL) au Massachusetts Institute of Technology, les chercheurs Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo et Sendhil Mullainathan ont souhaité « transformer la recherche en action ». En effet, le J-PAL s’est donné pour objectif de fournir, via une méthode expérimentale construite sur le modèle des essais cliniques en médecine, des preuves d’efficacité concrètes des programmes d’aide au développement, et de faire en sorte que ces preuves puissent être utilisées par les décideurs politiques. L’accumulation et l’utilisation de ces preuves par la sphère politique conduiraient à ce que Banerjee et Duflo appellent une « révolution douce », c’est-à-dire un monde où l’extrême pauvreté serait éradiquée. Mais comment les résultats issus de ces expériences sont-ils produits ? Ces expériences permettent-elles véritablement de produire des preuves ? Les résultats de ces expériences sont-ils fiables et utilisables par les décideurs politiques ? Peut-on transposer les résultats d’une expérience menée sur un territoire particulier à un autre territoire ? Une telle méthode peut-elle donner lieu à une transformation profonde des politiques de lutte contre la pauvreté ? Cet ouvrage se propose de répondre à ces questions en conduisant une analyse épistémologique de l’approche du J-PAL, et en interrogeant la validité de la méthode qu’il promeut, tout autant que sa portée et son apport plus global à l’économie du développement et aux politiques de lutte contre la pauvreté.

Book The History of Development

Download or read book The History of Development written by Gilbert Rist and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this classic text, now in its fourth edition, Gilbert Rist provides a complete and powerful overview of what the idea of development has meant throughout history. He traces it from its origins in the Western view of history, through the early stages of the world system, the rise of US hegemony, and the supposed triumph of third-worldism, through to new concerns about the environment and globalization. In a new chapter on post-development models and ecological dimensions, written against a background of world crisis and ideological disarray, Rist considers possible ways forward and brings the book completely up to date. Throughout, he argues persuasively that development has been no more than a collective delusion, which in reality has resulted only in widening market relations, whatever the intentions of its advocates.

Book Ethics and the Market

Download or read book Ethics and the Market written by Betsy Jane Clary and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprising cutting-edge work on the state of social economics today, this theoretically diverse book includes strong emphasis on the role of ethics, morality, identity, and society in economic theorizing. Much existing economic theory overlooks ethics. Rather than situating the market and values at separate extremes of a continuum, Ethics and the Market contends that the two are necessarily and intimately related. This volume brings together some of the best work in the social economics tradition, with strong contributions and pedagogy, and a cross-national blend of economics, philosophy, and policy. The contributors embed the economic within the social, rather than viewing 'the economy' and 'society' as separable spheres of life activity, and in so doing, three key themes are illuminated, corresponding to the volume's tripartite structure: Morality and Markets Redefining the Boundaries of Economics Social Economics in Transition. Ethics and the Market illuminates the diverse and dynamic theoretical approaches that are employed in social economics, reflecting on their continuously evolving relationship with neoclassical economics. Taking an innovative approach, this integrative book challenges traditional ways of thinking, and will prove vital reading for students and academics in the fields of Economics, Sociology, Gender Studies, and Public Policy.

Book The Solidarity Economy

Download or read book The Solidarity Economy written by Jean-Louis Laville and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2023-08-22 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questioning the boundaries between politics and economics Jean-Louis Laville’s large body of work has focused on an intellectual history of the concept of solidarity since the Industrial Revolution. In The Solidarity Economy, his most famous distillation of this work, Laville establishes how the formations of economic solidarities (unions, activism, and other forms of associationalism) reveal that the boundaries between politics and economics are porous and structured such that politics, ideally a pure expression of ethics and values, is instead integrated with economic concerns. Exploring the possibilities and long histories of association, The Solidarity Economy identifies the power of contemporary social and solidarity movements and examines the history of postcapitalist practices in which democratic demands invade the heart of the economy. The Solidarity Economy ranges in focus from workers associations in France dating back to the nineteenth century, to associations of African Americans and feminists in the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, to a Brazilian landless-worker coalition in the twentieth century. Studying solidarity associations over time allows us to examine how we can recombine the economic and political spheres to address dependencies and inequalities. Ultimately, The Solidarity Economy has global scope and inspiring examples of associations that deepen democracy.
