Development Planning: Concepts and Tools for Planners, Managers and Facilitators

2004 y.
Publisher: Zed Books
Description: This new textbook in development planning aims to provide a comprehensive and practically relevant guide to strategic planning at postgraduate and practitioner level. The book will help bridge the unfortunate gap that now exists between much development planning theory and planning practice. Promoting a more value-based, action-centered and organization-inclusive approach to development planning than is normally presented in textbooks on planning, the book introduces a simple model of strategic planning, and then elaborates more complex arrangements. The author then operationalizes various aspects and processes of planning, and critically analyzes tools involved, always in the context of more fundamental planning concerns. Specific topics include logical framework analysis, the use of indicators, process planning schemas, principles and tools of prioritization, and dimensions of participation and community institution building.

Development Policy in the Twenty First Century: Beyond the Post-Washington Consensus

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This excellent book, newly available in paperback, addresses the growing dissatisfaction with the neo-liberal post Washington consensus. The concern of the contributors in writing this collection was that this consensus has established itself as a new orthodoxy, more powerful and widespread than its predecessor. This broad-ranging critique explains that without a much broader political economy the consensus is unlikely to provide a coherent framework for successful development policies. [detailed...]

Development Redefined: How the Market Met Its Match (International Studies Intensives) (International Studies Intensives)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Rejecting the flat worldism of the globalists as well as the peaks and valleys of trade and aid policies over the years, Robin Broad and John Cavanagh guide us through the raging debate over the best route to development for the poorer nations of Africa, Asia, and Latin America. This book takes readers on a journey through the rise and fall of the one-size-fits-all model of development that richer nations began imposing on poorer ones three decades ago. That model called the Washington Consensus by its backers and neoliberalism or market fundamentalism by its critics placed enormous power in markets to solve the problems of the poor. The authors have stood at the epicenter of these debates from their perches in the United Nations, the U.S. government, academia, and civil society. They guide us back in time to understand why the Washington Consensus dominated for so long, and how it devastated workers, the environment, and the poor. At the same time, they chart the rise of an… [detailed...]

P. W. Preston
Development Theory: An Introduction

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this invaluable introduction to the major post-Second World War theories of Third World development, Peter Preston takes as his focus the strategies used to analyze change in the Third World and examines the ways in which different conceptions of the nature of change have led to different lines of policy advice. In doing so, the author demonstrates how the various contemporary approaches to development draw upon strategies of enquiry which are lodged deep within the intellectual traditions of the modern world. The author`s approach is based on the premise that the reader can only fully grasp the live issues and debates surrounding development through an understanding of the linkages with the broader frameworks of social theory. The volume is organized into four major sections: An introduction to the nature of social scientific analysis, A review of the work of the major social scientific figures of the nineteenth century and their impacts in the twentieth, A comprehensive… [detailed...]

Development With Trade: Ldcs and the International Economy : A Sequoia Seminar (A Sequoia seminar)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Since World War II, and prior to the establishment of the World Trade Organization (WTO), formulations of the rules governing international trade were almost entirely within the purview of the industrialized countries. The rules thus devised as part of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) -- the WTO`s predecessor organization -- did not ignore developing countries, but accorded them special and different treatment. Development with Trade questions the value of these perquisites in lieu of rule-making participation by their purported beneficiaries. The conventional treatment of LDCs` trade concerns as `special` and `different` is shown to be as deferential as differential -- extending the benefits of international trade to the few (someelites) within developing countries while denying those benefits to most. The Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) accorded LDC imports within the GATT are characterized within this volume as being fraudulent. A product of… [detailed...]

Development and Crisis of the Welfare State: Parties and Policies in Global Markets

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Evelyne Huber and John D. Stephens offer the most systematic examination to date of the origins, character, effects, and prospects of generous welfare states in advanced industrial democracies in the post--World War II era. They demonstrate that prolonged government by different parties results in markedly different welfare states, with strong differences in levels of poverty and inequality. Combining quantitative studies with historical qualitative research, the authors look closely at nine countries that achieved high degrees of social protection through different types of welfare regimes: social democratic states, Christian democratic states, and `wage earner` states. In their analysis, the authors emphasize the distribution of influence between political parties and labor movements, and also focus on the underestimated importance of gender as a basis for mobilization. Building on their previous research, Huber and Stephens show how high wages and generous welfare… [detailed...]

Description: Development and Displacement draws together a number of emergent challenges to the practices and theories of development in the contemporary world, associated with forms of displacement. The authors offer a careful analytical approach to the phenomenonof displacement, drawing on the work of development theorists, geographers and cultural studies. Illustrating the persisting importance of places and territories in a globalising world where social and economic networks and flows are increasingly significant, Development and Displacement offers a range of suggestions as to how development agendas, agencies of development, and conceptualisations of development are being reframed in response to this shifting development.

Development and the African Diaspora: Place and the Politics of Home

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This innovative book examines the relationship between African `civil society` and `home association` networks in the diaspora. Remittances home via these networks outweigh official development assistance. Looking in particular at Cameroon and Tanzania, the authors argue that building `civil society` in Africa must be understood in tandem with the political economy of migration and wider debates concerning ethnicity and belonging. They demonstrate both that diasporic development is distinct from mainstream development, and that it is an uneven historical process in which some ``homes` are better placed to take advantage of global connections than others. In doing so, the book engages critically with the current enthusiasm among policy-makers for treating the African diaspora as an untapped resource for combating poverty. [detailed...]
