Book Synopsis The Moral Economy of EU Association with Africa by : Mark Langan
Download or read book The Moral Economy of EU Association with Africa written by Mark Langan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa’s association with the European Union has long been hailed as a progressive model of North-South relations. European officials, in particular, have represented the Africa-EU ‘partnership’ as a pro-poor enterprise in which trade interests are married to development prerogatives. Applying a moral economy perspective, this book examines the tangible impact of Africa-Europe trade and development co-operation on citizens in developing countries. In so doing, it challenges liberal accounts of Europe’s normative power to enable benevolent change in the Global South and illuminates how EU discourse acts to legitimise unequal trade ties that have regressive consequences for ‘the poor’. Drawing upon the author’s own fieldwork, it assesses the difference between norms and the actual impact of EU concessions in relation to: budget support; aid for trade; private sector development (PSD); decent work. It concludes by considering the value of a moral economy approach in the assessment of free trade structures more widely. This text will be of key interest to scholars and students of Africanist IPE, European studies, and more broadly international political economy, international development, and international relations.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Perspectives on African Moral Economy by : Isaria N. Kimambo
Download or read book Contemporary Perspectives on African Moral Economy written by Isaria N. Kimambo and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2008 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topic of African moral economy was first raised by Goran Hyden in 1980 as one of the main obstacles to economic transformation of the African peasantry. The suggestion caused serious academic debates between the proposer and other scholars on African societies, especially those using political economy as the framework of their analysis. But Hyden continued to defend his thesis until interest in the debate faded out. More recently Japanese scholars have taken up the topic as it appears to have new relevance in comparison with the fast transformations which have taken place in Southeast Asian rural communities. The focus of this book is to give a detailed comparison between African rural communities and those of Southeastern Asia. Attention is focused on the two main aspects of African peasantry life: the right to subsistence and the norm of reciprocity. A wide interdisciplinary approach is employed to demonstrate the dynamism displayed by these societies.

Book Synopsis Figurations of Modernity by : V. J. H. Houben
Download or read book Figurations of Modernity written by V. J. H. Houben and published by Campus Verlag. This book was released on 2008 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional wisdom holds that globalization has made the world more modern, not less. But how has modernity been conceived of in colonial, postcolonial, and post-revolutionary worlds? In Figurations of Modernity, an international team of scholars probe how non-European worlds have become modern ones, from the perspective of a broad range of societies around the globe. From vocational education in Argentina to secular morality in Tibet, from the construction of heroes in Central Asia to historical memory in Nigeria, this comprehensive volume reckons with the legacy of empire in a globalizing world. Enhanced by the perspectives of historians, anthropologists, and scholars of comparative education, Figurations of Modernity will be an essential book for those studying post-colonial nations across disciplines.

Book Synopsis From the Lagos Plan of Action to the New Partnership for Africa's Development by : Francis Nguendi Ikome
Download or read book From the Lagos Plan of Action to the New Partnership for Africa's Development written by Francis Nguendi Ikome and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study brings an intellectual but also an exciting dimension to Africa's development discourse in general and NEPAD in particular. It is especially remarkable in analysing the origins of regionalist impulses in Africa. It shows profound contrasts between the state-led, internally formulated and African-financed Lagos Plan of Action (LPA) on the one hand and the market-led, Western-crafted, and externally funded NEPAD on the other. Moreover, it is distinctive in its comprehensive analysis of the failures of previous regional initiatives in Africa, thus bringing new insights to the political economy of regionalism in Africa. This book is analytical and critical, but also thought-provoking.

Download or read book A Better Investment Climate for Everyone written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2004 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the 27th edition of the annual World Development Report and this edition focuses on a key development challenge of how governments can promote a strong investment climate in their societies, in order to foster economic growth and address poverty reduction objectives. Drawing on surveys of nearly 30,000 firms in 53 developing countries, as well as country case studies and other new research, the report explores options for expanding opportunities for firms and entrepreneurs of all types, from farmers and microenterprises to local manufacturing concerns and multinationals, to invest productively and create job opportunities. Findings drawn include that a strong investment climate should benefit society as a whole as well as individual firms, requires well-designed regulation and taxation systems. and should recognise and embrace the contributions of all types of firms to growth and poverty reduction. Governments need to address barriers to competitiveness and bridge the gap between policies and their implementation and address deeper sources of policy failure which can undermine a sound investment climate. The report also contains selected data from the World Bank's programme of Investment Climate Surveys and the Doing Business Project, as well as from the World Development Indicators 2004.
