Social Inclusion and Economic Development in Latin America

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Poverty and inequality in Latin America are easily recognizable in the faces of women, Afro-descendents, the indigenous, people with disabilities, victims of HIV/AIDS, and other groups outside the societal mainstream. Social Inclusion and Economic Development in Latin America reviews the common features of these excluded populations, including their invisibility in official statistics and the stigma, discrimination, and disadvantages they have long endured. But it also examines the region`s inclusionary policies and programs that can improve access by these groups to the quality social services and economic and political resources these groups need to level the playing field. Case studies examine ethnic and racial political organization, gender quotas, and labor markets across the region, and social exclusion in Brazil, Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico, and Peru. Comparative studies summarize social inclusion policies of both the European Union and… [detailed...]

2007 y.
Publisher: Routledge

Social Inequality : Values, Growth, and the State (Development and Inequality in the Market Economy)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Inequality of income, wealth, and opportunities is an ancient concern of economists, philosophers, political leaders, and the community at large. Is inequality the unavoidable dark side of capitalism? Is it the price to be paid for fostering wealth creation and material progress? Can economic growth and social equity coexist? Is inequality an ethical or moral problem? An economic problem? A political one? Leading international scholars endeavor here to answer these key questions. The volume treats the problem of income distribution from three angles. First, it reviews the recent literature on distributive justice both from the viewpoint of philosophers (Rawls, Dworkin, Nozick, Cohen) and economists (Sen, Roemer, and others), in order to clarify issues, approaches, and conclusions derived from work done in the interface between philosophy and economics. Second, it analyzes the issue of inequality from the viewpoint of its impact on (and interactions with) economic… [detailed...]

Social Informatics: An Information Society for All? In Remembrance of Rob Kling: Proceedings of the Seventh International Conference `Human Choice and … Federation for Informatio

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Through the years, the principal message of the ‘Human Choice and Computers’ (HCC) tradition and its associated conferences has been: there are choices and alternatives. The special theme of HCC7 is Social Informatics, which includes in itself a promise of a less technically biased approach to informatics, whilst An Information Society for All adds the ethical aspects to it. When developing the infrastructure and applications in an information society, we should strive to afford people equal opportunities to information technologies. Professor Rob Kling introduced the name Social informatics in its widely known Computers and Controversy. He was director of the Center for Social Informatics at Indiana University, Bloomington. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2003 at age 58, leaving a rich heritage in the field. This HCC7 conference honours his work and memory, and it develops further the cultivation of Kling’s legacy. In this volume, Social… [detailed...]

Social Intelligence provides a highly accessible and comprehensive model for describing, assessing, and developing social intelligence at a personal level. This book is filled with intriguing concepts, enlightening examples, stories, cases, situational strategies, and a self-assessment tool – all designed to help you learn to navigate social situations more successfully.

Social Justice and Gender Equality: Rethinking Development Strategies and Macroeconomic Policies (Routledge/Unrisd Research in Gender Adn Development)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The contributors to this edited volume explore the effects of various development strategies and associated macroeconomic policies on women`s well-being and progress towards gender equality. Detailed analyses of major UN reports on gender reveal the different approaches to assessing absolute and relative progress for women and the need to take into account the specifics of policy regimes when making such assessments. The book argues that neoliberal policies, especially the liberalization of trade and investment, make it difficult to close gender wage and earnings gaps, and new gender-sensitive policies need to be devised. These and other issues are all examined in more detail in several gendered development histories of countries from Latin America and Asia. [detailed...]

Social Justice and Neoliberalism: Global Perspectives

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book explores the connections between neoliberalism, social justice and exclusion. The authors offer grounded, theoretically-oriented, empirically-rich analysis of the links between neoliberalism and social justice, bringing together work that critiques neoliberalism, along with understandings of its material impacts. It also stresses the need to extend analysis beyond the dominant spheres of `capitalism,` to explore the ways in which communities resist and remake capitalism, through processes of contestation and protest, but also through their everyday lives, their economies and their livelihood strategies. Global in scope, each chapter in turn asks how the experiences of marginal peoples, places and communities might challenge our conceptions of capitalism and its geographies. [detailed...]

Social Justice: The Moral Foundations of Public Health and Health Policy (Issues in Biomedical Ethics)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In bioethics, discussions of justice have tended to focus on questions of fairness in access to health care: is there a right to medical treatment, and how should priorities be set when medical resources are scarce. But health care is only one of many factors that determine the extent to which people live healthy lives, and fairness is not the only consideration in determining whether a health policy is just. In this pathbreaking book, senior bioethicists Powers and Faden confront foundational issues about health and justice. How much inequality in health can a just society tolerate. The audience for the book is scholars and students of bioethics and moral and political philosophy, as well as anyone interested in public health and health policy. [detailed...]

Social Limits to Economic Theory

Publisher: —
Description: Modern economics makes much of its claims to be impartial, objective and value-free but it is unable to address our most immediate problems, such as widespread environmental degradation and persistent poverty. Social Limits to Economic Theory argues for a new progressive political economy, based on notions of community and justice while incorporating environmental and ethical considerations. In demonstrating that modern economics is far from being a value-free science, Jon Mulberg sheds much light on the hidden history of economics. Social Limits to Economics will interest anyone concerned with critiques of economics or with its ethical and environmental dimension. [detailed...]

Social Limits to Growth (Twentieth Century Fund Study)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Social Limits to Growth sets forth a new view of the nature and the limitations of economic growth. The author’s central argument is that there are indeed limits to growth currently exist and are essentially social rather than physical.As societies have become richer, an increasing proportion of the extra goods, services, and facilities sought by consumers cannot be acquired or used by all, without spoiling them for each other. So frustration is heightened by material affluence, which is why affluence does not make a satisfied society. This book offers important insight on apparently disconnected aspects of the current malaise…such as alienation at work, the rat-race element in education, deterioration in city living, consumerist relationships with neighbors, friends, and sex partners, as well as accelerating rates of inflation and unemployment.

However, this narrow view hugely underestimates social marketing’s real potential. Social marketing is simply about influencing the behavior of target audiences. There are many more target audiences who need to act besides “problem people” if we are to solve major social problems.A A A A The goal of this cutting edge book is to reposition social marketing so that foundations, government agencies, and various… [detailed...]
