This major introductory text written by three leading names in the
field provides an accessible overview of the challenges faced in
overcoming global poverty and inequality in the twenty-first
century. Through an in-depth assessment of development theory and
practice, the authors set out to advance two key arguments: the
first being the importance of historically contextualizing
contemporary developmental problems in order to assess policy
proposals; and the second that inequality matters, and how this
notion has continually remained a central feature of development
debates from colonial times to present day. Ideal for undergraduate
students taking development modules as part of Political Science
and International Relations degrees, this engaging text proves to
be essential reading when exploring the impacts of development on
today's international political economy. With each chapter covering
inequalities from all different angles, the authors clearly outline
the impact of models such as globalization and neoliberalism, as
well as offering alternative views on the challenges posed by the
UN's Millennium Development Goals.Also available is a companion
website with extra features to accompany the text, please take a

Challenging traditional conceptions and providing a new critical perspective, the authors provide a comprehensive historical record of inequality in Australia, and show how that account no longer adequately explains the new and different forms of inequality. As Australian society has changed, they argue, new forms of inequality have emerged, influencing the country's experience of identity, embodiment and politics. The book presents a critical overview of contemporary inequality suitable for undergraduates.
