Book Synopsis Heterodox Economics and Global Emergencies by : Ariane Agunsoye
Download or read book Heterodox Economics and Global Emergencies written by Ariane Agunsoye and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the financial crash to the climate emergency and Covid- 19, this book demonstrates that recent crises have had unequal impacts, they require a heterodox approach to economics for their understanding, and new ways of thinking are needed to address them. Drawing on a variety of heterodox and radical perspectives and global voices, including those from India, Africa, and South America, this collection explores the causes and impacts of global emergencies from a wide array of viewpoints. The first section outlines how the pandemic has shown up the biases of orthodox thought and policy, particularly its Eurocentric and patriarchal focus on the urban, formal economy. It outlines how adding an international dimension to institutional analysis uncovers systematic inequalities in the responses to emergencies, and how new paradigms can provide better alternatives. The massive interventionism worldwide has led to renewed interest in the global financial system, and also in Marxian approaches to money. The second section of the book therefore considers a range of alternative approaches to the study of finance – from Marx to Minsky – which are currently being revisited. The collection concludes with a suggestion for heterodox economics pedagogy, since changing economics education is vital for future dissemination of real- world ideas. The book will be of interest to a variety of researchers and postgraduate students, and lecturers, especially in the fields of development, health, labour and feminist economics, and also international political economy and heterodox economics.

Book Synopsis Southern and Postcolonial Perspectives on Policing, Security and Social Order by : Roxana Pessoa Cavalcanti
Download or read book Southern and Postcolonial Perspectives on Policing, Security and Social Order written by Roxana Pessoa Cavalcanti and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2023-05-18 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postcolonial legacies continue to impact upon the Global South and this edited collection examines their influence on systems of policing, security management and social ordering. Expanding the Southern Criminology agenda, the book critically examines social harms, violence and war crimes, human rights abuses, environmental degradation and the criminalization of protest. The book asks how current states of policing came about, their consequences and whose interests they continue to serve through vivid international case studies, including prison struggles in Latin America and the misuse of military force. Challenging current criminological thinking on the Global South, the book considers how police and state overreach can undermine security and perpetuate racism and social conflict.

Book Synopsis Contested Cities and Urban Activism by : Ngai Ming Yip
Download or read book Contested Cities and Urban Activism written by Ngai Ming Yip and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-13 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume advances our understanding of urban activism beyond the social movement theorization dominated by thesis of political opportunity structure and resource mobilization, as well as by research based on experience from the global north. Covering a diversity of urban actions from a broad range of countries in both hemispheres as well as the global north and global south, this unique collection notably focuses on non-institutionalised or localised urban actions that have the potential to bring about radical structural transformation of the urban system and also addresses actions in authoritarian regimes that are too sensitive to call themselves “movement”. It addresses localized issues cut off from international movements such as collective consumption issues, like clean water, basic shelter, actions against displacement or proper venues for street vendors, and argues that the integration of the actions in cities in the global south with the specificity of their local social and political environment is as pivotal as their connection with global movement networks or international NGOs. A key read for researchers and policy makers cutting across the fields of urban sociology, political science, public policy, geography, regional studies and housing studies, this text provides an interdisciplinary and international perspective on 21st century urban activism in the global north and south.

Book Synopsis Geographies of Globalized Education Privatization by : Kevin Mary
Download or read book Geographies of Globalized Education Privatization written by Kevin Mary and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the complex and various forms that privatization of education takes on a global scale at different ages of schooling. Through the spread of neoliberal policies in education both in the global North and the global South, the book suggests that this process is leading to new forms of schooling and socio-spatial dynamics linked to the creation of increasingly competitive school markets. The book highlights some of the main issues that such competition generates by focusing on the acceleration of the segregative processes on one hand but also on the alternatives that are emerging regarding this global context on the other hand. It considers processes of domination, hegemony, but also exclusion and segregation, eventually exploring contradictions inherent to societies. It presents innovative empirical and conceptual research by international scholars from the fields of social geography, sociology, history and demography in the United States, Lebanon, France, Afghanistan and Chile, thereby transcending disciplinary boundaries. Developed in under or unexplored contexts, the book broadens the reflection to social representations, individual and collective strategies, adaptation, innovation and also resistances.

Book Synopsis Social Movements in Chile by : Sofia Donoso
Download or read book Social Movements in Chile written by Sofia Donoso and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-21 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents rich empirical analyses of the most important movements in Chile’s post-transition era: the Student Movement, the Mapuche Movement, the Labor Movement, the Feminist Movement, and the Environmental Movement. The chapters illuminate the processes that led to their emergence, and detail how actors developed new strategies, or revisited old ones, to influence the political arena. The book also offers contributions that situate these cases both in terms of the general trends in protest in Chile, as well as in comparison to other countries in Latin America. Emphasizing various facets of the debate about the relationship between “institutional” and “non-institutional” politics, this volume not only contributes to the study of collective action in Chile, but also to the broader social movement literature.
Book Synopsis Institutions, Mobilisation, and Political Participation by : Laura Morales Diez de Ulzurrun
Download or read book Institutions, Mobilisation, and Political Participation written by Laura Morales Diez de Ulzurrun and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta tesis mantiene que no podemos entender completamente el asociacionismo político de los ciudadanos a menos que fijemos nuestra mirada más allá de las características individuales; es decir, a menos que intentemos comprender qué efecto tiene sobre su comportamiento político el contexto político y social en el que los ciudadanos actúan. Los recursos y las características socioeconómicas proporcionan oportunidades para unirse a organizaciones políticas. Las actitudes y las orientaciones proveen (o, por el contrario, reducen) la motivación para unirse a un grupo con objetivos políticos. Sin embargo, estos rasgos individuales no son necesariamente factores de desigualdad en todas las sociedades ni tienen siempre las mismas consecuencias. El contexto social y político en el que los ciudadanos toman decisiones sobre su participación interactúa, de manera importante, con los rasgos individuales para activar o desactivar su impacto político. Además, el contexto social y político que rodea a los ciudadanos tiene también un impacto independiente sobre su comportamiento político. Las instituciones políticas y las pautas de movilización política condicionan de manera crucial el asociacionismo político. Estos dos conjuntos de factores -instituciones y movilización- estructuran las oportunidades de participación que en realidad tienen los ciudadanos. De hecho, algunos sistemas democráticos han desarrollado instituciones políticas que facilitan la pertenencia a grupos políticos. Así, mientras que en algunos países occidentales los ciudadanos son movilizados con mucha frecuencia a través de asociaciones políticas, en otros lo son en mucha menor medida. Esta tesis es, por lo tanto, un intento de incorporar de una manera sistemática la "política" y las "instituciones" en el análisis del comportamiento político. A lo largo de la misma se demuestra que las enormes diferencias entre los países occidentales en términos de la propensión de sus respectivos ciudadanos a organizarse políticamente, no pueden explicarse sólo por las distintas características socioeconómicas de los individuos. Sin duda, estos aspectos también contribuyen a que sean menos participativos, pero no nos ayudan gran cosa a explicar las variaciones que encontramos entre sociedades occidentales. Los resultados de esta investigación ponen de manifiesto la enorme importancia del contexto sociopolítico para explicar por qué los ciudadanos de algunas democracias occidentales participan en política a través de organizaciones y por qué no lo hacen los de otras sociedades similares. Determinadas estructuras de oportunidades políticas favorecen la participación de los ciudadanos de manera muyimportante. Así, sistemas políticos más abiertos a la influencia de las organizaciones políticas, gracias a la existencia de arreglos corporativistas de intermediación de intereses y al mayor pluralismo y fragmentación de la representación parlamentaria, contribuyen a que los ciudadanos encuentren mayores incentivos para participar en los asuntos públicos. Del mismo modo, el grado en que las propias organizaciones políticas actúan como agentes efectivos de movilización política influye en el comportamiento participativo de los ciudadanos. Allí donde las organizaciones políticas tienen una red organizativa y de infraestructuras más densas, los ciudadanos están más expuestos a los estímulos de reclutamiento político y, por tanto, participan más. Además, el contexto político no sólo estructura las oportunidades de participación de los ciudadanos, sino que también interactúa con las características de los propios ciudadanos, contribuyendo así a aumentar o disminuir las desigualdades participativas de los mismos. Las estructuras políticas más abiertas y accesibles disminuyen las barreras y los costes a la participación, de tal manera que los individuos con menores recursos socioeconómicos -por ejemplo, la educación- no se encuentran tan desfavorecidos en su capacidad de influir en el proceso de toma de decisiones. Por el contrario, las estructuras políticas más cerradas exacerban el efecto de las desigualdades sociales y las transforman en desigualdades políticas. De esta manera, el contexto político tiene un doble efecto sobre el asociacionismo político en las democracias occidentales. Por un lado, condiciona cuánta gente participa en los asuntos públicos a través de organizaciones políticas y, por otro, incide en quiénes son los que participan. Los sistemas políticos más abiertos extienden e igualan la participación organizada de los ciudadanos; los sistemas políticos más cerrados reducen la participación y la hacen más desigual socialmente.

Book Synopsis The Left Hand of Capital by : Fernando Ignacio Leiva
Download or read book The Left Hand of Capital written by Fernando Ignacio Leiva and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Left Hand of Capital, Fernando Ignacio Leiva provides a theoretically grounded analysis of the last thirty years of socioeconomic policies in Chile, beginning at the end of the Pinochet military regime in 1990. He skillfully probes how innovative center-left politico-economic initiatives transformed the state's relationships with the country's urban poor, indigenous peoples, workers, students, and business elites, thereby contributing to institutionalize, legitimize, and renew Chile's neoliberal system of domination. Leiva documents how such politics, progressive in appearance, were pivotal in forging new arts of domestication, "participatory" social control mechanisms, and commodified subjectivities. This landmark book guides us into a deeper awareness about the limitations of center-left politics, not only in Chile, but elsewhere in the Americas and Western Europe as well. At a time when far-right movements seem to be growing in the Global South, Europe, and the United States, this book offers valuable insights into the predicament of social democracy and how, as in Chile and in the context of global neoliberalism, it can become the "left hand of capital."

Download or read book Agrotropolis written by J.T. Way and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Agrotropolis, historian J. T. Way traces the developments of Guatemalan urbanization and youth culture since 1983. In case studies that bring together political economy, popular music, and everyday life, Way explores the rise of urban space in towns seen as quintessentially "rural" and showcases grassroots cultural assertiveness. In a post-revolutionary era, young people coming of age on the globally inflected city street used popular culture as one means of creating a new national imaginary that rejects Guatemala's racially coded system of castes. Drawing on local sources, deep ethnographies, and the digital archive, Agrotropolis places working-class Maya and mestizo hometowns and creativity at the center of planetary urban history.
