Book Synopsis State-Administered Rural Change by : Björn Gyllström
Download or read book State-Administered Rural Change written by Björn Gyllström and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-26 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991, this book includes a detailed case study of Kenya’s co-operative movement – one of the largest in sub-Saharan Africa. Co-operatives have been given a major role in rural development strategies in both socialist and capitalist states. However in both context the results they have achieved have fallen short of expectations. The book focuses on specific elements of the institutional setting within which agricultural marketing co-operatives operate. Factors like land tenure, market regulations, co-operative legislation and direct development support are discussed and shown to have had dire effects on the managerial behaviour and social impact of the co-operative sector.

Book Synopsis Rural Communities by : Cornelia Butler Flora
Download or read book Rural Communities written by Cornelia Butler Flora and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communities in rural America are a complex mixture of peoples and cultures, ranging from miners who have been laid off in West Virginia, to Laotian immigrants relocating in Kansas to work at a beef processing plant, to entrepreneurs drawing up plans for a world-class ski resort in California's Sierra Nevada. Rural Communities: Legacy and Change uses its unique Community Capitals framework to examine how America's diverse rural communities use their various capitals (natural, cultural, human, social, political, financial, and built) to address the modern challenges that face them. Each chapter opens with a case study of a community facing a particular challenge, and is followed by a comprehensive discussion of sociological concepts to be applied to understanding the case. This narrative, topical approach makes the book accessible and engaging for undergraduate students, while its integrative approach provides them with a framework for understanding rural society based on the concepts and explanations of social science. This fifth edition is updated throughout with 2013 census data and features new and expanded coverage of health and health care, food systems and alternatives, the effects of neoliberalism and globalization on rural communities, as well as an expanded resource and activity section at the end of each chapter.
Book Synopsis African Perspectives on Reshaping Rural Development by : Mafukata, Mavhungu Abel
Download or read book African Perspectives on Reshaping Rural Development written by Mafukata, Mavhungu Abel and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Development studies in developing regions such as Southern Africa rely heavily on materials developed by Europeans with a European context. European dominance in development studies emanates from the fact that the discipline was first developed by Europeans. Some argue that this has led to distortions in theory and practice of development in Southern Africa. This book wishes to begin Africa’s expedition to develop proper material to de-Westernize while Africanizing the context of the scholarship of rural development. African Perspectives on Reshaping Rural Development is an essential reference source that repositions the context of rural development studies from the Western-centric knowledge system into an African context in order to solve African-centered problems. Featuring research on topics such as food security, poverty reduction, and community engagement, this book is ideally designed for planners, researchers, practitioners, policymakers, government officials, academicians, and students seeking clarity on theory and practice of development in Africa.
Book Synopsis Empowering Communities by : Lacy K. Ford
Download or read book Empowering Communities written by Lacy K. Ford and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... the critical role of the Palmetto State's electric cooperatives in bringing electricity to the rural population of the state and their ongoing efforts over decades to enhance the quality of life in the state's rural areas. From the moment the lights came on, South Carolina's electric cooperatives ushered rural South Carolina communities into the modern world by making labor-saving electric appliances and modern conveniences available to rural people, serving as a center of community experience, and, at the present moment, leading the effort to bring high-speed internet access to currently underserved rural citizens. The rise of electricity transmitted, delivered, and serviced by member-owned cooperatives and sanctioned by federal and state legislation is a fascinating and complicated saga, one that takes readers into politics, law, finance, business, territorial competition, the technology of electrical generation and transmission, and rural economic development. Ford touches on all of these issues in this short volume, but the focus will remain on the dramatic and continuing changes driven by the electricity and sense of community the cooperatives brought to farms and villages and towns across the state. Ford and Bailey explore how, across decades, the cooperatives helped bring dramatic, fundamental, and transformational change to the lives of rural people in South Carolina. To be sure, it was an era of dramatic change across much of South Carolina as ownership of automobiles and other modern improvements lessened the isolation of the countryside, but without question rural electrification changed the daily routines and life experiences of rural people-Black and White, men and women-repeatedly across the decades after the 'lights came on' in rural South Carolina. A final chapter will address the ongoing controversy of Santee Cooper, the state-owned electric utility which generates and sells over three-quarters of its electricity to one customer: South Carolina's electric cooperatives. James E. Clyburn, majority whip and the third-ranking Democrat in the United States House of Representatives, and a long-time supporter of electric cooperatives in South Carolina, provides a foreword"--
Book Synopsis Collective Courage by : Jessica Gordon Nembhard
Download or read book Collective Courage written by Jessica Gordon Nembhard and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-13 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Collective Courage, Jessica Gordon Nembhard chronicles African American cooperative business ownership and its place in the movements for Black civil rights and economic equality. Not since W. E. B. Du Bois’s 1907 Economic Co-operation Among Negro Americans has there been a full-length, nationwide study of African American cooperatives. Collective Courage extends that story into the twenty-first century. Many of the players are well known in the history of the African American experience: Du Bois, A. Philip Randolph and the Ladies' Auxiliary to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, Nannie Helen Burroughs, Fannie Lou Hamer, Ella Jo Baker, George Schuyler and the Young Negroes’ Co-operative League, the Nation of Islam, and the Black Panther Party. Adding the cooperative movement to Black history results in a retelling of the African American experience, with an increased understanding of African American collective economic agency and grassroots economic organizing. To tell the story, Gordon Nembhard uses a variety of newspapers, period magazines, and journals; co-ops’ articles of incorporation, minutes from annual meetings, newsletters, budgets, and income statements; and scholarly books, memoirs, and biographies. These sources reveal the achievements and challenges of Black co-ops, collective economic action, and social entrepreneurship. Gordon Nembhard finds that African Americans, as well as other people of color and low-income people, have benefitted greatly from cooperative ownership and democratic economic participation throughout the nation’s history.
