This book was released on 2007-07-01 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suite à l'inefficacité des Programme d'Ajustement Structurel, des politiques de "Stratégie de Réduction de la Pauvreté" ont vu le jour. Pour l'auteur, ces mesures dites de luttes contre la pauvreté sont encore une fois insuffisantes car elles ne parviennent pas à établir les bases nécessaires à une économie durable, faite de transformation et de production de richesses. Cet ouvrage tente d'apporter un début de réponse à la problématique du développement humain durable et efficient.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre est une recherche sur les th ories, les pratiques, les approches et les strat gies du d veloppement donnant une voie alternative sur le discours dominant de d veloppement en Afrique. L''Afrique, tant le seul continent qui traine derri re tous les autres continents, a t un lieu o les diff rentes strat gies et th ories du d veloppement ont t appliqu es ou essay es. L'' chec apparent de progresser apporte l''esprit critique un sens du questionnement de savoir s''il est temps de repenser ces strat gies. Sachant que l''Afrique est un continent avec des pays diff rents, avec des d fis de grande envergure, avec des besoins diff rents, avec de nombreux potentiels allant de l''abondance de ses ressources naturelles jusqu'' ses ressources humaines inexploit es, il a t ma qu te de comprendre ce continent complexe et de donner la possibilit au lecteur de saisir une panoplie de possibilit s de repenser les strat gies de d veloppement pour ce continent. Cela implique d'' largir le discours et les pratiques de d veloppement allant des m thodes conomiques tous les autres domaines comme le d veloppement humain, des situations culturelles et le d veloppement durable. Cela implique galement le m lange des travaux d'' rudition avec des solutions locales cr atives. Dans le large ventail d''exemples de tous les coins de la terre se trouvant dans ce livre, le lecteur d couvrira comment le livre pr sente une compr hension globale des discours sur le d veloppement et la pratique en tant que telle. C''est l que les th ories et les r alit s locales se r unissent en tant que contribution alternative au domaine du d veloppement. Je tiens souligner l''importance de combiner les th ories acad miques aux incitations locales africaines - telles que la cr ativit , le sens de l''innovation et les attitudes de r solution de probl mes que certains Africains d tiennent -; l''opportunit de renforcer la coop ration Sud-Sud (y compris le r le de la Chine) - , le potentiel norme de l''impulsion que la soci t civile peut apporter au d veloppement, en particulier tant donn la croissance plus que n cessaire des classes moyennes; l''urgence d''am liorer la m diocrit des infrastructures battues, et une attention particuli re au r chauffement climatique auquel l''Afrique est particuli rement sensible; et am liorer les institutions en place pour continuer miser sur le leadership individuel, entre autres suggestions utiles. La recherche sur le d veloppement est un engagement continu d couvrir les diff rentes possibilit s et de l''innovation cr ative. C''est avec cette approche que je cherche une compr hension plus profonde. Les recherches se poursuivent toujours avec l''am lioration des questions conomiques, politiques et sociales li es l''Afrique. En pr conisant une approche globale, j''insiste sur la n cessit de favoriser/stimuler les populations locales dans leur cr ativit , de comprendre leurs probl mes et d''habiliter les entrepreneurs locaux afin de r pondre aux questions des contextes particuliers. En m me temps, ces populations locales doivent collaborer et acqu rir des connaissances d''autres sp cialistes du d veloppement. J''encourage vivement les dirigeants africains, des universitaires et la communaut internationale fusionner les recherches acad miques et la cr ativit de la population locale sur le terrain en vue de renforcer la viabilit de l''avenir de l''Afrique. Mes recommandations sont applicables non seulement dans le domaine du d veloppement, mais aussi dans d''autres sph res de la vie humaine. Elles sont galement pertinentes la fois pour les universitaires et pour les profanes dans le domaine du d veloppement. Je voudrais int grer mes recherches dans la vie quotidienne des Africains et du monde universitaire.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade West African villages, rural towns, and urban neighbourhoods have experienced changes resulting from democratisation and decentralisation processes. While much hope was invested in decentralisation policies in the 1990s, today there is a need to look at everyday decentralisation practices. In this volume, authors of different scholarly backgrounds focus on political, economic and cultural aspects of decentralisation. By exploring party politics, water provision, schooling, territorial division and cultural understanding the case-studies highlight core stakes and fundamental contradictions of present-day decentralisation in West Africa.

Download or read book Anthropology and Development written by Jean-Pierre Oliver De-Sardan and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book re-establishes the relevance of mainstream anthropological (and sociological) approaches to development processes and simultaneously recognizes that contemporary development ought to be anthropology‘s principal area of study. Professor de Sardan argues for a socio-anthropology of change and development that is a deeply empirical, multidimensional, diachronic study of social groups and their interactions. The Introduction provides a thought-provoking examination of the principal new approaches that have emerged in the discipline during the 1990s. Part I then makes clear the complexity of social change and development, and the ways in which socio-anthropology can measure up to the challenge of this complexity. Part II looks more closely at some of the leading variables involved in the development process, including relations of production; the logics of social action; the nature of knowledge; forms of mediation; and ‘political‘ strategies.

Download or read book The Political Economy of Post adjustment written by Hakim Ben Hammouda and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. Hammouda's text focuses on modernization experiences in the South which, in the 80s had reached their limits, with the adoption of structural adjustment programmes in most countries. Yet, such Washington Consensus inspired programmes met difficulties in initiating new growth dynamics in these countries and in improving their international insertion. Hence, a new era termed post-adjustment by the author has been ushered in, one which is characterized by a decline of structural adjustment programmes and through dynamic and plural research, is striving to introduce new theoretical practices and development strategies. This book is a contribution to such debate.
Download or read book New Geographies of Global Policy Making written by Carolina Milhorance and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-05 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International institutions and agencies from the Global North are no longer the sole initiators of development norms and best practices. The proliferation of exports and imports of social, economic and policy management models have called for a rethinking of South-South relations. To date, most studies have focused on the drivers and strategies of international initiatives made by emerging powers; none have analysed the impact of these initiatives on the receiving country’s institutions, and on the structures of international organisations. In this book, Carolina Milhorance examines the content, process and consequences of the internationalisation of Brazil’s rural public policy instruments. Brazil earned wide international recognition in the early 2000s for its agricultural modernization and social policies; its increasing influence illustrated the specific political interests of coalitions that are embedded in domestic and international struggles. Drawing on extensive field research -- including more than 280 interviews -- conducted in Brazil, Mozambique, South Africa, Malawi, France and Italy, Milhorance analyses the effects of the internationalisation of Brazilian policy solutions on national and local political systems in recipient countries, highlighting specifically the case of Mozambique. Relying on a new theoretical approach to International Relations -- one based on public policy analysis and international political sociology -- she moves beyond a debate about conventional notions of international power. New Geographies of Global Policy-Making will be interest to scholars and researchers of international relations, public policy analysis, political sociology, comparative politics, and Latin American studies.
Download or read book Development and Territorial Restructuring in an Era of Global Change written by Elisabeth Peyroux and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-07-25 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thinking about development and the environment simultaneously is one of the biggest scientific and societal challenges of the 21st century. Understanding the interactions between biophysical systems and human activities in an era of global change requires overcoming disciplinary divides and opening up new epistemological perspectives. This book explores these challenges using a territorial lens. Combining various scales of analyses (from global to local) and contexts (both urban and rural) in the North and in the South, it analyzes the relationships between environment and development through a variety of geographical objects (i.e. cities, rural and agricultural areas, coastlines, watershed), themes (i.e. ecological transitions, food, energy, transport, agriculture, mining activities) and methodologies (i.e. qualitative and quantitative approaches, modeling, in situ measurements). By engaging in a dialogue between social science and natural science disciplines, within different fields and with a variety of forms of knowledge production, this book provides essential information for understanding and reading the complexity of a globalized world. This book is targeted at academics and students in social sciences and at stakeholders in the field of territorial and environmental management.

Download or read book Land in the Struggles for Citizenship in Africa written by Sam Moyo and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The variety of land questions facing Africa and the divergent strategies proposed to resolve them continue to evoke debates. Increasingly, in response to the enduring problems of land tenure, there are land movements of all shapes and orientations, some reformist and others quite revolutionary in their agenda. However revolutionary, land movements have tended to ignore the land tenure interests of women, pastoralists, youth and indigenous people. Several of these longstanding and emerging issues in land tenure include the role of the state in land tenure reforms; urban land questions, the nature of land struggles and improvements; and, the impact of land tenure developments on particular social groups and countries. An overarching concern is the extent to which land rights are being commodified, through the conversion of land held under customary tenure systems into marketised systems. The consequences of this include growing land concentration, land tenure insecurities, diminishing access to land by various sections of society, including the poor, women and less dominant ethno-religious groups. This volume brings together different studies on Africas land questions exploring emerging land issues on the continent in terms of the wider questions of development, citizenship, and democratisation. The chapters discuss the land question through a variety of themes. Some focus on the agrarian aspects of the land questions, while others elucidate the urban dimensions of the land question.
