Book excerpt: L’objectif de cette thèse est de vérifier la pertinence du concept (non stabilisé) de développement territorial durable (DTD) en tant que référent théorique mais également comme cadre stratégique pour la conception et la mise en œuvre de politiques et de projets de développement durable des territoires. Cette recherche porte plus spécifiquement sur le potentiel que représente la mise en œuvre de stratégies inspirées du DTD pour les zones rurales en difficulté. L’évaluation en elle-même a été menée à partir de l’analyse empirique de deux territoires ruraux brésiliens distincts, présentant de manière parfois paroxystique les caractéristiques de zones rurales marginalisées. La thèse s’est efforcée de questionner la pertinence du Développement Territorial Durable à trois niveaux, qui ont constitué les axes structurant de ce travail. Il s’est agit, dans un premier temps, de mettre en évidence les arguments montrant, d’un point de vue théorique, la pertinence de la conjugaison des concepts de développement territorial et de développement durable qui composent le socle théorique et méthodologique du DTD. Pour ce faire, nous avons réalisé un effort de « délimitation » du concept de DTD ainsi qu’une analyse des principes et des éléments qui composent, à savoir : l’articulation local-global pour l’intégration de la dimension environnementale, les acteurs et leurs systèmes d’organisation et d’action, de la gouvernance, le capital social et le territoire. L’évaluation empirique (en nous appuyant sur nos études de cas), de la capacité du DTD à orienter des stratégies et des démarches spécifiques, souples et en cohérence avec les contextes particuliers des territoires dans lesquels elles s’appliquent, constituait notre deuxième axe de recherche. Le constat de l’existence, à l’échelle du Brésil comme dans nos deux régions d’étude, de telles stratégies nous a amené à analyser, d’un point de vue normatif, les résultats des actions menées au moyen de critères correspondant aux principes objectifs du DTD. La recherche a notamment permis de vérifier qu’il n’y a pas unicité des trajectoires de développement et qu’en conséquence il ne peut pas y avoir universalité d’un modèle d’intervention (ce qui constituait une hypothèse forte de ce travail et du projet CAPES/COFECUB 449/04 dans lequel il s’inscrivait). L’analyse des cas du Cariri de la Paraíba et du Plateau Catarinense ont d’autre part permis de rejeter en partie l’hypothèse d’une masse critique nécessaire à l’implantation d’un processus de DTD, ce qui est particulièrement positif pour les zones rurales les plus dévitalisées. Cette étude nous a enfin permis de vérifier qu’en dépit d’un processus « normal » de réappropriation du concept de DTD, et du caractère encore ponctuel des réalisations observées, les actions menées dans le cadre de stratégies de DTD sont opérationnelles et efficientes dans le sens où elles contribuent à l’amélioration des conditions d’existence des populations concernées.

Book Synopsis Democratization in Africa by : National Research Council
Download or read book Democratization in Africa written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global movement toward democracy, spurred in part by the ending of the cold war, has created opportunities for democratization not only in Europe and the former Soviet Union, but also in Africa. This book is based on workshops held in Benin, Ethiopia, and Namibia to better understand the dynamics of contemporary democratic movements in Africa. Key issues in the democratization process range from its institutional and political requirements to specific problems such as ethnic conflict, corruption, and role of donors in promoting democracy. By focusing on the opinion and views of African intellectuals, academics, writers, and political activists and observers, the book provides a unique perspective regarding the dynamics and problems of democratization in Africa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital technologies are spreading rapidly, but digital dividends--the broader benefits of faster growth, more jobs, and better services--are not. If more than 40 percent of adults in East Africa pay their utility bills using a mobile phone, why can’t others around the world do the same? If 8 million entrepreneurs in China--one third of them women--can use an e-commerce platform to export goods to 120 countries, why can’t entrepreneurs elsewhere achieve the same global reach? And if India can provide unique digital identification to 1 billion people in five years, and thereby reduce corruption by billions of dollars, why can’t other countries replicate its success? Indeed, what’s holding back countries from realizing the profound and transformational effects that digital technologies are supposed to deliver? Two main reasons. First, nearly 60 percent of the world’s population are still offline and can’t participate in the digital economy in any meaningful way. Second, and more important, the benefits of digital technologies can be offset by growing risks. Startups can disrupt incumbents, but not when vested interests and regulatory uncertainty obstruct competition and the entry of new firms. Employment opportunities may be greater, but not when the labor market is polarized. The internet can be a platform for universal empowerment, but not when it becomes a tool for state control and elite capture. The World Development Report 2016 shows that while the digital revolution has forged ahead, its 'analog complements'--the regulations that promote entry and competition, the skills that enable workers to access and then leverage the new economy, and the institutions that are accountable to citizens--have not kept pace. And when these analog complements to digital investments are absent, the development impact can be disappointing. What, then, should countries do? They should formulate digital development strategies that are much broader than current information and communication technology (ICT) strategies. They should create a policy and institutional environment for technology that fosters the greatest benefits. In short, they need to build a strong analog foundation to deliver digital dividends to everyone, everywhere.

Book Synopsis Faecal Sludge Management by : Linda Strande
Download or read book Faecal Sludge Management written by Linda Strande and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is estimated that literally billions of residents in urban and peri-urban areas of Africa, Asia, and Latin America are served by onsite sanitation systems (e.g. various types of latrines and septic tanks). Until recently, the management of faecal sludge from these onsite systems has been grossly neglected, partially as a result of them being considered temporary solutions until sewer-based systems could be implemented. However, the perception of onsite or decentralized sanitation technologies for urban areas is gradually changing, and is increasingly being considered as long-term, sustainable options in urban areas, especially in low- and middle-income countries that lack sewer infrastructures. This is the first book dedicated to faecal sludge management. It compiles the current state of knowledge of the rapidly evolving field of faecal sludge management, and presents an integrated approach that includes technology, management, and planning based on Sandecs 20 years of experience in the field. Faecal Sludge Management: Systems Approach for Implementation and Operation addresses the organization of the entire faecal sludge management service chain, from the collection and transport of sludge, and the current state of knowledge of treatment options, to the final end use or disposal of treated sludge. The book also presents important factors to consider when evaluating and upscaling new treatment technology options. The book is designed for undergraduate and graduate students, and engineers and practitioners in the field who have some basic knowledge of environmental and/or wastewater engineering.
Book Synopsis Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research by : Aditya Johri
Download or read book Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research written by Aditya Johri and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-10 with total page 1124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research is the critical reference source for the growing field of engineering education research, featuring the work of world luminaries writing to define and inform this emerging field. The Handbook draws extensively on contemporary research in the learning sciences, examining how technology affects learners and learning environments, and the role of social context in learning. Since a landmark issue of the Journal of Engineering Education (2005), in which senior scholars argued for a stronger theoretical and empirically driven agenda, engineering education has quickly emerged as a research-driven field increasing in both theoretical and empirical work drawing on many social science disciplines, disciplinary engineering knowledge, and computing. The Handbook is based on the research agenda from a series of interdisciplinary colloquia funded by the US National Science Foundation and published in the Journal of Engineering Education in October 2006.
Book Synopsis Land Justice: Re-imagining Land, Food, and the Commons by : Justine M. Williams
Download or read book Land Justice: Re-imagining Land, Food, and the Commons written by Justine M. Williams and published by Food First Books. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, the various strands of the food movement have made enormous strides in calling attention the many shortcomings and injustices of our food and agricultural system. Farmers, activists, scholars, and everyday citizens have also worked creatively to rebuild local food economies, advocate for food justice, and promote more sustainable, agroecological farming practices. However, the movement for fairer, healthier, and more autonomous food is continually blocked by one obstacle: land access. As long as land remains unaffordable and inaccessible to most people, we cannot truly transform the food system. The term land-grabbing is most commonly used to refer to the large-scale acquisition of agricultural land in Asian, African, or Latin American countries by foreign investors. However, land has and continues to be “grabbed” in North America, as well, through discrimination, real estate speculation, gentrification, financialization, extractive energy production, and tourism. This edited volume, with chapters from a wide range of activists and scholars, explores the history of land theft, dispossession, and consolidation in the United States. It also looks at alternative ways forward toward democratized, land justice, based on redistributive policies and cooperative ownership models. With prefaces from leaders in the food justice and family farming movements, the book opens with a look at the legacies of white-settler colonialism in the southwestern United States. From there, it moves into a collectively-authored section on Black Agrarianism, which details the long history of land dispossession among Black farmers in the southeastern US, as well as the creative acts of resistance they have used to acquire land and collectively farm it. The next section, on gender, explores structural and cultural discrimination against women landowners in the Midwest and also role of “womanism” in land-based struggles. Next, a section on the cross-border implications of land enclosures and consolidations includes a consideration of what land justice could mean for farm workers in the US, followed by an essay on the challenges facing young and aspiring farmers. Finally, the book explores the urban dimensions of land justice and their implications for locally-autonomous food systems, and lessons from previous struggles for democratized land access. Ultimately, the book makes the case that to move forward to a more equitable, just, sustainable, and sovereign agriculture system, the various strands of the food movement must come together for land justice.
