Social Regeneration and Local Development - Cooperation, Social Economy and Public Participation (Paperback): Silvia Sacchetti,... Social Regeneration and Local Development - Cooperation, Social Economy and Public Participation (Paperback)
Silvia Sacchetti, Asimina Christoforou, Michele Mosca
R1,227 Discovery Miles 12 270 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Social regeneration is about the transformative processes that, through institutional choices that embody cooperation and inclusion, develop opportunities and capabilities for weak categories, and transversally for society. The challenge of social regeneration can be addressed, in part, through organisational solutions increasingly identified with social economy organisations, since they are characterised by a social objective, cooperation and inclusive democratic governance. Besides the organisational element, Social Regeneration and Local Development provides a new perspective on interacting socio-economic factors, which can work in synergy with the social economy organisations model to promote and sustain social regeneration and well-being. Such elements include civic engagement and social capital, the nature of the welfare system, the use of physical assets in urban and rural areas, leadership, technology, and finance. By analysing organisational and contextual elements, this book offers an institutional perspective on how socio-economic systems can reply to challenges such as social and environmental degradation, financial crises, immigration, inequality, and marginalisation.

Knowledge in the Development of Economies - Institutional Choices Under Globalisation (Hardcover): Silvia Sacchetti, Roger... Knowledge in the Development of Economies - Institutional Choices Under Globalisation (Hardcover)
Silvia Sacchetti, Roger Sugden
R3,328 Discovery Miles 33 280 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This innovative book offers a critical perspective on the state of the current global economy, making sense of knowledge-related issues by critically assessing existing institutional choices, as well as pointing to new ways forward. The pioneering chapters reposition knowledge in a number of economic debates including regional development, property rights, social enterprises, corporate governance, the management of universities, and the role of creative activities. They explore the possibility of an institutional dynamism that impacts not only on the characteristics of localities and their place in a hierarchical and ordered system of relationships, but on the nature of the system itself. Conclusions point at the individual and collective dimensions of the knowledge discovery process, suggesting a renewed approach to the assessment of economic choices. This insightful book offers an original perspective on knowledge-related issues and constitutes a valuable read for academics and postgraduate students in international business and economic competitiveness, as well practitioners and policymakers who are interested in alternative analyses and methods for economic development.
