Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À l’heure d’une mondialisation néolibérale qui exacerbe les inégalités entre le Nord et le Sud, la coopération internationale a pris un nouvel essor à la faveur de la montée d’un mouvement citoyen international. Il n’existait pas au Québec d’ouvrage d’ensemble sur cette « autre coopération » qui se distingue de celle des États. Cet ouvrage aborde de front les questions les plus cruciales : quelles ont été ses conditions d’émergence ? Quelles approches utilise-t-elle ? Son soutien favorise-t-il vraiment le développement des communautés au Sud ? Quelles sont les politiques publiques canadiennes en la matière ? Et, surtout, quelle est la contribution effective des OCI, des mouvements sociaux, des entreprises collectives, des gouvernements locaux envers les communautés du Sud ? L’ouvrage ne se contente pas d’égrainer les réussites de cette « autre » coopération internationale. Il vient fournir les indispensables repères pour examiner les enjeux de la solidarité internationale aujourd’hui et les mettre en perspective. Il met à profit une vingtaine d’années de travaux des auteurs et une longue expérience d’engagement dans ce domaine. Ce livre intéressera les étudiants en développement international, en organisation communautaire et plus généralement en sciences sociales, de même que tous les militants et professionnels engagés dans ce type d’activités avec des pays du Sud.

This book was released on 2002-09-03T20:00:00-04:00 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En explorant les rapports entre l'économie sociale et le développement local, les auteurs s'interrogent sur les possibilités qu'elle recèle pour corriger les inégalités. Voilà l'enjeu de l'évaluation des pratiques d'économie sociale. Il ne s'agit donc pas seulement de savoir si les fonds reçus de l'État sont utilisés à bon escient (ce à quoi on a souvent tendance à ramener l'évaluation), mais surtout de savoir si les pratiques respectent les intentions manifestées au départ. Cependant, les outils, les cadres d'interprétation et les méthodes nous font cruellement défaut. Ce livre désire ainsi contribuer à faire avancer la réflexion sur cette question dont on voit clairement les enjeux démocratiques.

Book excerpt: Un pays peut-il avoir une main-d'œuvre très syndiquée, percevoir des taxes élevées et offrir de généreux programmes sociaux tout en maintenant une croissance économique hors pair - surpassant celle d'États néolibéraux - et un niveau d'égalité sociale exceptionnel ? Oui : c'est la social-démocratie 2.1, et les pays scandinaves en sont les champions. Le Québec est l'endroit en Amérique du Nord le plus syndiqué, le plus taxé et celui qui offre le plus de services publics ; il est aussi de plus en plus confronté à des choix difficiles en raison du vieillissement de sa population et de la précarité de ses finances publiques. Il s'agit d'une situation semblable à celle des pays scandinaves qui, dans les années 1990, ont entrepris la réforme de leurs systèmes de santé, d'éducation et de retraite ; une réforme si importante, en fait, que l'on peut réellement parler de social-démocratie 2.1. Comment le Québec se compare-t-il aux pays nordiques ? Face aux problèmes actuels, peut-il vraiment s'inspirer de leurs politiques sociales et économiques ? Les auteurs de cette seconde édition, revue et augmentée de plusieurs nouveaux chapitres, spécialistes des sociétés scandinaves et du Québec, répondent à ces questions de façon éclairée.

Download or read book Education for Critical Consciousness written by Paulo Freire and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-20 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famous for his advocacy of 'critical pedagogy', Paulo Freire was Latin America's foremost educationalist, a thinker and writer whose work and ideas continue to exert enormous influence in education throughout the world today. Education for Critical Consciousness is the main statement of Freire's revolutionary method of education. It takes the life situation of the learner as its starting point and the raising of consciousness and the overcoming of obstacles as its goals. For Freire, man's striving for his own humanity requires the changing of structures which dehumanize both the oppressor and the oppressed. This edition includes a substantial new introduction by Carlos Alberto Torres, Distinguished Professor and Founding Director of the Paulo Freire Institute, UCLA, USA. Translated by Myra Bergman Ramos.
Download or read book Connecting Histories of Education written by Barnita Bagchi and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of education in the modern world is a history of transnational and cross-cultural influence. This collection explores those influences in (post) colonial and indigenous education across different geographical contexts. The authors emphasize how local actors constructed their own adaptation of colonialism, identity, and autonomy, creating a multi-centric and entangled history of modern education. In both formal as well as informal aspects, they demonstrate that transnational and cross-cultural exchanges in education have been characterized by appropriation, re-contextualization, and hybridization, thereby rejecting traditional notions of colonial education as an export of pre-existing metropolitan educational systems.

Download or read book The Real War written by Richard Nixon and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-01-08 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this landmark 1980 bestseller, Richard Nixon presents an effective analysis of strategic shortcomings and a prescription for renewed strength. Nixon’s tough-minded views discussed in this book became a blueprint for Ronald Reagan’s military buildup and strategic initiatives—which ultimately paved the way for the end of the Cold War. Highly relevant to contemporary times, Nixon argues persuasively that America must assume a role of global leadership to make sure the war of annihilation never happens. The economic, material, and technological capacities to prevail are not enough, he cautions, without the resolve of national will. He utilizes the lessons of history—from the Mongolian invasion of Russia to the revolution in Iran—to instruct the future. From his unique perspective as the former chief executive of the nation, he tells us how we can use our political, economic, and military strengths to turn the tide.
Download or read book Altering Frontiers written by Corinne Grenier and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-07-21 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can healthcare systems be transformed by reimagining their multiple silos to favor processes and practices that are more responsive to local, horizontal initiatives? Altering Frontiers analyzes numerous experiences, using a multidisciplinary approach, paying attention to certain actors, collectives and organizational arrangements. Through this work, levers are identified that promote lasting transformation: recognizing the legitimacy of the practices of many who are often "invisible"; trusting those who know their intervention territory; investing in methodological support; taking advantage of tools and procedures such as instruments for strategic and managerial discussion; and developing the capacity to absorb innovative ideas and experiences that circulate within the environment.
Download or read book Safire s Political Dictionary written by William Safire and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-03-31 with total page 887 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to the vagaries of language in American politics, its uses and abuses, its absurdities and ever-shifting nuances, its power to confound, obscure, and occasionally to inspire, William Safire is the language maven we most readily turn to for clarity, guidance, and penetrating, sometimes lacerating, wit. Safire's Political Dictionary is a stem-to-stern updating and expansion of the Language of Politics, which was first published in 1968 and last revised in 1993, long before such terms as Hanging Chads, 9/11 and the War on Terror became part of our everyday vocabulary. Nearly every entry in that renowned work has been revised and updated and scores of completely new entries have been added to produce an indispensable guide to the political language being used and abused in America today. Safire's definitions--discursive, historically aware, and often anecdotal--bring a savvy perspective to our colorful political lingo. Indeed, a Safire definition often reads like a mini-essay in political history, and readers will come away not only with a fuller understanding of particular words but also a richer knowledge of how politics works, and fails to work, in America. From Axis of Evil, Blame Game, Bridge to Nowhere, Triangulation, and Compassionate Conservatism to Islamofascism, Netroots, Earmark, Wingnuts and Moonbats, Slam Dunk, Doughnut Hole, and many others, this language maven explains the origin of each term, how and by whom and for what purposes it has been used or twisted, as well as its perceived and real significance. For anyone who wants to cut through the verbal haze that surrounds so much of American political discourse, Safire's Political Dictionary offers a work of scholarship, wit, insiderhood and resolute bipartisanship.
