This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In vielen strukturschwachen ländlichen Regionen Europas hat sich in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten eine Abwärtsspirale in Gang gesetzt. Zwar sind die konkreten wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Bedingungen in den einzelnen Regionen Europas oft sehr unterschiedlich, dennoch zeigt sich tendenziell dasselbe Muster: Im Vergleich zu Städten sind die Bedingungen für das alltägliche Leben in strukturschwachen ländlichen Gebieten aufgrund einer geringeren wirtschaftlichen Produktivität, geringer Berufsperspektiven und einer sich verschlechternden infrastrukturellen Ausstattung (z.B. in der Daseinsvorsorge) eher ungünstig. Dies hat dazu geführt, dass immer mehr Landbewohnerinnen und -bewohner in die Städte abwanderten. Insbesondere jüngere, gut ausgebildete Personen haben ländlichen Regionen den Rücken gekehrt. Eine Folge davon ist, dass die dort benötigten Arbeits- bzw. Fachkräfte fehlen und sich die wirtschaftlichen Chancen der Regionen weiter verschlechtern. Dies macht es oft schwer, die Abwärtsspirale zu durchbrechen bzw. umzukehren.
Book Synopsis A Reader in Planning Theory by : Andreas Faludi
Download or read book A Reader in Planning Theory written by Andreas Faludi and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban and Regional Planning Series, Volume 5: A Reader in Planning Theory focuses on the approaches, methodologies, applications, and mechanics involved in planning theory. The selection first elaborates on a choice theory of planning, sociological considerations in the evaluation of planning, and British town planning. Discussions focus on social scientific research and town planning ideology, town planning as part of broader social policy, critics of traditional planning, value formulation, means identification, and effectuation. The text then examines comprehensive planning and social responsibility and building the middle-range bridge for comprehensive planning. The publication takes a look at the science of "muddling through", beyond the middle-range planning bridge, and goals of comprehensive planning. Topics include comprehensiveness and public interest, community development programming, non-comprehensive analysis, relations between means and ends, and successive comparisons as a system. The book also ponders on community decision behavior, a conceptual model for the analysis of planning behavior, and advocacy and pluralism in planning. The selection is a dependable reference for researchers interested in planning theory.
Book Synopsis The Routledge Handbook of Planning Theory by : Michael Gunder
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Planning Theory written by Michael Gunder and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Planning Theory presents key contemporary themes in planning theory through the views of some of the most innovative thinkers in planning. They introduce and explore their own specialized areas of planning theory, to conceptualize their contemporary positions and to speculate how these positions are likely to evolve and change as new challenges emerge. In a changing and often unpredictable globalized world, planning theory is core to understanding how planning and its practices both function and evolve. As illustrated in this book, planning and its many roles have changed profoundly over the recent decades; so have the theories, both critical and explanatory, about its practices, values and knowledges. In the context of these changes, and to contribute to the development of planning research, this handbook identifies and introduces the cutting edge, and the new emerging trajectories, of contemporary planning theory. The aim is to provide the reader with key insights into not just contemporary planning thought, but potential future directions of both planning theory and planning as a whole. This book is written for an international readership, and includes planning theories that address, or have emerged from, both the global North and parts of the world beyond.

Book Synopsis Peripheralization by : Matthias Naumann
Download or read book Peripheralization written by Matthias Naumann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-01-12 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peripheries emerge as a result of shifts in economic and political decision-making at various scales. Therefore peripheral spaces are not a “natural” phenomenon but an outcome of the intrinsic logic of uneven geographical development in capitalist societies. Discussing examples from Germany, Eastern Europe, Turkey, Iraqi Kurdistan, Pakistan, India and Brazil, the volume describes the social production of peripheries from different theoretical and methodological perspectives. In so doing, it argues in favour of a re-politicization of the recent debate on peripheralization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rural societies around the world are changing in fundamental ways, both at their own initiative and in response to external forces. The Routledge International Handbook of Rural Studies examines the organisation and transformation of rural society in more developed regions of the world, taking an interdisciplinary and problem-focused approach. Written by leading social scientists from many countries, it addresses emerging issues and challenges in innovative and provocative ways to inform future policy. This volume is organised around eight emerging social, economic and environmental challenges: Demographic change. Economic transformations. Food systems and land. Environment and resources. Changing configurations of gender and rural society. Social and economic equality. Social dynamics and institutional capacity. Power and governance. Cross-cutting these challenges are the growing interdependence of rural and urban; the rise in inequality within and between places; the impact of fiscal crisis on rural societies; neoliberalism, power and agency; and rural areas as potential sites of resistance. The Routledge International Handbook of Rural Studies is required reading for anyone concerned with the future of rural areas.

Book Synopsis Social Entrepreneurship and Social Enterprises by : Linda Lundgaard Andersen
Download or read book Social Entrepreneurship and Social Enterprises written by Linda Lundgaard Andersen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migrant women stepping into ethnic catering; homeless men employed to take care of bees producing honey for sale; young people on the edge getting microcredit funding to start social businesses; or former criminals joining forces to create social and economic structures for an honest lifestyle. These initiatives capture the transformative power of social enterprise and might indicate how social enterprises have the potential to make a difference for people and societies. The Nordic countries represent an interesting case. Social enterprises and co-operatives played a significant part in paving the way for the Nordic solicaristic welfare state. As the welfare state grew, civil society organizations and co-operatives lost ground, to a certain extent. But in recent decades, the welfare state has been restructured and, simultaneously, the concepts social entrepreneurship and social enterprises have gained attention. The Nordic context, with extensive public welfare structures and a high degree of citizens’ participation in public affairs, might affect the emergence of social entrepreneurship and social enterprises.

Book Synopsis Social Enterprise and the Third Sector by : Jacques Defourny
Download or read book Social Enterprise and the Third Sector written by Jacques Defourny and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concepts of social enterprise and social entrepreneurship are rapidly attracting increased attention in academic spheres and from policy-makers, as well as field workers who are setting up new initiatives or reshaping their organizations. These concepts are perceived as defining innovative and dynamic responses to major global challenges in today’s societies. The debate about social enterprise is now world-wide, with lively exchanges between American and European scholars. However, the research and landscapes still differ significantly in different regions, and diversity also exists within specific regions such as Europe. This book presents the most comprehensive set of contributions reflecting the European-wide debate, but with frequent connections to developments in other parts of the world. This book is a result of work carried out by members of the EMES International Research Network, which is a pioneer in this field. Social Enterprise and the Third Sector will appeal to all researchers who focus on the third sector, social economy and social enterprise, to MBA and postgraduate students, as well as to intellectual social enterprise leaders and practitioners. It will soon become a key reference for all those who want to explore the full richness of these concepts and follow this important academic debate.

Jonas, Roger Lee, Peter North, and Katinka Weber) concerned with alternative modes of economic and social exchange. The cases addressed in these contributions - including credit unions, alternative currencies, sustainable consumption, and social enterprises - deliver valuable insights into how such alternatives are performed at various scales and spaces in relation to and beyond the economic mainstream.
