Автор: Philip McMichael Название: Development and Social Change: A Global Perspective ISBN: 1452275904 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781452275901 Издательство: Sage Publications Рейтинг: Цена: 82370.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Philip McMichael describes a world undergoing profound social, political, and economic transformations, from the post-World War II era through the present. He tells a story of development in four parts - colonialism, developmentalism, globalization, and sustainability - that shows how the global development “project” has taken different forms from one historical period to the next. Throughout the text, the underlying conceptual framework is that development is a political construct, created by dominant actors (states, multilateral institutions, corporations and economic coalitions) and based on unequal power arrangements. While rooted in ideas about progress and prosperity, development also produces crises that threaten the health and well-being of millions of people, and sparks organized resistance to its goals and policies. Frequent case studies make the intricacies of globalization concrete, meaningful, and clear.

Описание: The book`s central questions - who makes claims on the state for social welfare, how, and why? - will be important to those interested in welfare provision, citizenship practice, and local governance. It is accessible not only to academic audiences in the social sciences but also to policymakers, NGO staff, and journalists.
We must and can do much better at addressing issues such as climate change, food security, health, education, environmental degradation, peace-building, water, equity, corruption, and wealth creation. This book is for people working on these types of issues, with the belief that we can create a future that is not just "sustainable", but also flourishing. This perspective means that the challenge is not just one of simple change, but of transformation - radical change in the way we perceive our world, create relationships and organize our societies. This is the implication of the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals and other global efforts, and also innumerable efforts locally, nationally and regionally.
This book approaches these challenges as large systems change issues: issues requiring engagement of many, many people and organizations often globally; issues requiring deep innovation with shifts in mindsets and power structures; and issues that require capacity to work with complexity. Large systems change is presented as a new field of practice and knowledge; the book is not about a "method" or particular "approach"; rather it provides an overview of frameworks, methods and approaches to develop capacity to use the appropriate ones in particular contexts.
After introducing concepts of transformation and complexity, the book presents five case studies of large systems change. These cases and others are referenced throughout the remainder of the book to present large systems change strategy, organizing structures, steps in developing the necessary collective action, tools, and guidance for change practitioners.
