This books aims to further develop theory and practice on
people-centred development, in particular on the livelihood
approach. It focuses on four contemporary thematic areas, where
progress has been booked but also contestation is still apparent:
power relations, power struggles and underlying structures;
livelihood trajectories and livelihood pathways: house, home and
homeland in the context of violence; and mobility and immobility.
Contemporary livelihood studies aim to contribute to the
understanding of poor people's lives with the ambition to enhance
their livelihoods. Nowadays livelihood studies work from an
holistic perspective on how the poor organize their livelihoods, in
order to understand their social exclusion and to contribute to
interventions and policies that intend to countervail that.
Contributors are: Clare Collingwood Esland, Ine Cottyn, Jeanne de
Bruijn, Leo de Haan, Charles do Rego, Benjamin Etzold, Urs Geiser,
Jan Willem le Grand, Griet Steel, Paul van Lindert, Annelies
Zoomers.
