Searching for Security - Women's Responses to Economic Transformations (Hardcover, New): Isa Baud, Ines Smyth Searching for Security - Women's Responses to Economic Transformations (Hardcover, New)
Isa Baud, Ines Smyth
R4,551 Discovery Miles 45 510 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Human security is a development buzzword of the 1990s. To attain security people need to be safe from natural disasters, such as famine, and "man-made" problems, such as unemployment. Women are a particularly insecure section of society with the impact of deprivation disproportionately shouldered by women throughout the developing world. This study examines how economic, political and environmental factors have contributed to increased gender insecurity in the last decade. Analyzing the impacts of insecurity-inducing global changes on the lives of women throughout the developing world, the book discusses the gender responses to these changing circumstances from Africa to Malaysia, Hungary to the Caribbean. By examining the impact of liberal economic policies, war, rape, racism and environmental damage on the lives of women, this collection of essays makes a contribution to emerging policy efforts to recognize and address the issue of gender insecurity.

Local Governance and Poverty in Developing Nations (Paperback): Nicky Pouw, Isa Baud Local Governance and Poverty in Developing Nations (Paperback)
Nicky Pouw, Isa Baud
R1,423 Discovery Miles 14 230 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This volume examines the persistence of poverty - both rural and urban - in developing countries, and the response of local governments to the problem, exploring the roles of governments, NGOs, and CSOs in national and sub-national agenda-setting, policy-making, and poverty-reduction strategies. It brings together a rich variety of in-depth country and international studies, based on a combination of original data-collection and extensive research experience in developing countries. Taking a bottom-up and multi-dimensional perspective of poverty and well-being as the starting point, the authors develop a convincing set of arguments for putting the priorities of poor people first on any development agenda, thus carving out an undisputable role for local governance in interplay with higher-up governance actors and institutions.
