Written by two widely published academics with many years'
experience in university teaching, research and consultancy,
Geographies of Development in the 21st Century provides a concise
yet informative introduction to development in the contemporary
Global South. Incorporating field research from Mexico, Costa Rica,
Guatemala, Colombia, El Salvador, the Philippines, Botswana and The
Gambia, Sylvia Chant and Cathy McIlwaine bring alive a body of
fascinating subject matter extending across gender, family,
poverty, employment, household livelihoods, the informal economy,
housing, migration, civil society, conflict and violence.
Reflecting both authors' enduring interests in the academic-policy
interface, the book is also informed by assignments they have
undertaken for various international organisations such as the
World Bank, Inter-American Development Bank, UNDP, UNICEF, ILO and
the Commonwealth Secretariat. This timely and engaging volume will
be an essential companion for undergraduate students taking
introductory courses in development and globalisation as well as a
useful reference and repository of teaching and learning ideas for
those lecturing on the subject. Students will not only find this
resource refreshingly accessible and user-friendly, but will be
able to further their knowledge guided by annotated readings, key
internet sources and a range of learning activities.
