Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how the voluntary organisations engaged with development programmes work with the approach of conscientisation to empower Adivasis. Their work has been instrumental in making government machinery pro-poor by implementing development programmes with greater transparency and accountability. Conscientisation of Adivasis by voluntary organisations through their educative role has resulted in the advancement of their lives and the emergence of autonomous leadership. The study concludes that the ideological base of the founders of the organisations made the Adivasis independent and self-supportive for their development from their earlier status of servitude through initiating and accomplishing the task of conscientisation.

Download or read book Local Politics: A Practical Guide to Governing at the Grassroots written by Terry Christensen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike most competing texts that are densely written and heavily theoretical, with little flavor of political life, this book is a readable, jargon-free introduction to real-life local politics for today's students. While it encompasses local government and politics in cities and towns across America, "Local Politics: A Practical Guide to Governing at the Grassroots" gives special attention to the politics of suburbia, where many students live, and encourages them to become engaged in their own communities. The book is also distinguished by its strong emphasis on nuts-and-bolts practical politics. It provides focused discussion of institutions, roles, and personalities as well as the dynamic environment of local politics (demographics, immigration, globalization, etc.) and major policy issues (budgets, land use, transportation, education, etc.). Other texts treat communities as abstractions and readers as passive observers. "Local Politics: A Practical Guide to Governing at the Grassroots" is designed to inspire civic engagement as well as understanding. It features "In Your Community" research projects for students in every chapter along with informative tables, clear charts, essential terms, and guides to useful websites.

Download or read book GRASSROOTS GOVERNANCE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT A Case Study in North East India written by Dr. Nazmul Hussain Laskar and published by Ashok Yakkaldevi. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is basically an agrarian country the two-thirds population of which lives in rural areas. The quality of national life is ultimately determined by the standard of life in village. Thus, development at the grass-root level is imperative to the overall development of the country. But over the years it is observed that rural development is difficult to be realised by the government’s initiative from above. In fact, the initiative needs to come from the bottom. Here comes the importance of the Panchayat system in general and Gaon Sabha in particular. Gaon Sabha provides an ideal forum for participation of any ordinary villager in the process of development. It is the ideal manifestation of decentralised planning by which the people at the lowest rung of our democracy may ventilate their hopes and aspirations. It ensures sustainable development and finds solutions to the problems of poverty and under development in rural India. The 73rd Amendment of the Indian Constitution, 1992 (received the assent of the President on April 20, 1993 and published in the Gazette of India, Part II, Section I, dated 20 April, 1993) for the first time created a statutory imperative for the establishment of a legally empowered Gaon Sabha. Gaon Sabha means a body of all persons registered in the electoral rolls of a village falling within the jurisdiction of a village panchayat. It is designed to ensure participation of people in the three stages of planning i.e., plan formulation, plan implementation and plan evaluation at the grass root level. The 73rd and 74th Constitutional Amendment Acts have provided an opportunity for the persons registered as voters in the village to directly participate in the decision making process. Gaon Sabhas thus serve as the basis of decentralised planning and help to ensure a transparent and accountable administration through Gaon Panchayat. It monitors the functioning of the Gaon Panchayat. While the elected representatives take policy level decisions on behalf of the people, the registered voters in the village discuss and take part in the decisions relating to the development of the village. The Assam Panchayat Raj Act 1994 also empowered the Gaon Sabha to discuss, plan and formulate policies for rural development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A moral dilemma gripped Professor Gupta when he was invited by the Bangladeshi government to help restructure their agricultural sector in 1985. He noticed how the marginalized farmers were being paid poorly for their otherwise unmatched knowledge. The gross injustice of this constant imbalance led Professor Gupta to found what would turn into a resounding social and ethical movement—the Honey Bee Network—bringing together and elevating thousands of grassroots innovators. For over two decades, Professor Gupta has travelled through rural lands unearthing innovations by the ranks—from the famed Mitti Cool refrigerator to the footbridge of Meghalaya. He insists that to fight the largest and most persistent problems of the world we must eschew expensive research labs and instead, look towards ordinary folk. Innovation—that oft-flung around word—is stripped to its core in this book. Poignant and personal, Grassroots Innovation is an important treatise from a social crusader of our time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation is increasingly invoked by policy elites and business leaders as vital for tackling global challenges like sustainable development. Often overlooked, however, is the fact that networks of community groups, activists, and researchers have been innovating grassroots solutions for social justice and environmental sustainability for decades. Unencumbered by disciplinary boundaries, policy silos, or institutional logics, these ‘grassroots innovation movements’ identify issues and questions neglected by formal science, technology and innovation organizations. Grassroots solutions arise in unconventional settings through unusual combinations of people, ideas and tools. This book examines six diverse grassroots innovation movements in India, South America and Europe, situating them in their particular dynamic historical contexts. Analysis explains why each movement frames innovation and development differently, resulting in a variety of strategies. The book explores the spaces where each of these movements have grown, or attempted to do so. It critically examines the pathways they have developed for grassroots innovation and the challenges and limitations confronting their approaches. With mounting pressure for social justice in an increasingly unequal world, policy makers are exploring how to foster more inclusive innovation. In this context grassroots experiences take on added significance. This book provides timely and relevant ideas, analysis and recommendations for activists, policy-makers, students and scholars interested in encounters between innovation, development and social movements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on an in-depth investigation of different regions of China's vast countryside, Improving Village Governance in Contemporary China vividly describes rural governance mechanisms against the background of China's rapid urbanization. China’s rural areas vary greatly from region to region with respect to the pace and mode of change. Rural governance in China is decided by how the state transfers resources to villages, and by the linkage between the transfer style and the specific situation of each village. Only when grassroots governance is based on rural democracy (with peasants as the core) can villages become more harmonious.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abers (political science, Center for Public Policy Research, U. of Brasília, Brazil) provides a close study of innovative city government in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Led by the Workers' Party, the city implemented a participatory budget program in which residents meet in their neighborhoods to determine budget priorities. Taking place in a city long dominated by patronage politics and elite rule, the story is both a sociopolitical study of the impact that state- sponsored participatory forums can have on civil society and a contribution to the theory and practical possibilities of participatory democracy.--
