This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.

Download or read book L'économie sociale, vecteur d’innovation written by Marie J. Bouchard and published by PUQ. This book was released on 2011-11-14T00:00:00-05:00 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’économie sociale n’est pas un phénomène nouveau. Mais elle connaît un regain d’intérêt depuis les dernières décennies, notamment dans le contexte de la crise économique et des remises en cause profondes qu’elle occasionne. Les risques occasionnés par la déconnexion de l’économie et du social font l’objet de douloureuses manifestations, et la «crise» ressemble moins à un soubresaut conjoncturel qu’à une probable grande «rupture» du modèle de développement. Dans ce contexte, l’intérêt pour l’économie sociale s’accentue. On y voit entre autres un laboratoire d’innovations sociales qui cherche à dessiner les plans d’une économie qui ne soit pas déconnectée du social non plus que du politique.Ce livre rend compte de recherches récentes qui concernent des enjeux contemporains pour l’économie sociale, et dont l’expérience québécoise s’avère être un terrain riche d’enseignements. Les différents chapitres du livre rendent compte de l’histoire récente de l’économie sociale au Québec, de ses traits spécifiques sur le plan juridique et du rapport salarial, de ses pratiques en matière de gouvernance et de financement, de ses impacts sur le développement local et le développement durable, de son engagement dans la recherche partenariale. On y constate que les initiatives de l’économie sociale, apparues d’abord à l’échelle locale, se sont multipliées et diffusées, entraînant des effets structurants sur les conditions de vie, le travail et les territoires, ainsi que sur la planification et la mise en œuvre des politiques publiques. Les innovations sociales, tout en étant des réponses à des besoins, sont donc aussi des avenues pour le changement social.

Download or read book State-Directed Development written by Atul Kohli and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-08-30 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why have some developing country states been more successful at facilitating industrialization than others? An answer to this question is developed by focusing both on patterns of state construction and intervention aimed at promoting industrialization. Four countries are analyzed in detail - South Korea, Brazil, India, and Nigeria - over the twentieth century. The states in these countries varied from cohesive-capitalist (mainly in Korea), through fragmented-multiclass (mainly in India), to neo-patrimonial (mainly in Nigeria). It is argued that cohesive-capitalist states have been most effective at promoting industrialization and neo-patrimonial states the least. The performance of fragmented-multiclass states falls somewhere in the middle. After explaining in detail as to why this should be so, the study traces the origins of these different state types historically, emphasizing the role of different types of colonialisms in the process of state construction in the developing world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À l’heure d’une mondialisation néolibérale qui exacerbe les inégalités entre le Nord et le Sud, la coopération internationale a pris un nouvel essor à la faveur de la montée d’un mouvement citoyen international. Il n’existait pas au Québec d’ouvrage d’ensemble sur cette « autre coopération » qui se distingue de celle des États. Cet ouvrage aborde de front les questions les plus cruciales : quelles ont été ses conditions d’émergence ? Quelles approches utilise-t-elle ? Son soutien favorise-t-il vraiment le développement des communautés au Sud ? Quelles sont les politiques publiques canadiennes en la matière ? Et, surtout, quelle est la contribution effective des OCI, des mouvements sociaux, des entreprises collectives, des gouvernements locaux envers les communautés du Sud ? L’ouvrage ne se contente pas d’égrainer les réussites de cette « autre » coopération internationale. Il vient fournir les indispensables repères pour examiner les enjeux de la solidarité internationale aujourd’hui et les mettre en perspective. Il met à profit une vingtaine d’années de travaux des auteurs et une longue expérience d’engagement dans ce domaine. Ce livre intéressera les étudiants en développement international, en organisation communautaire et plus généralement en sciences sociales, de même que tous les militants et professionnels engagés dans ce type d’activités avec des pays du Sud.

Download or read book L'économie sociale au Nord et au Sud written by Jacques Defourny and published by De Boeck. This book was released on 1999 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis une vingtaine d'années, l'économie sociale connaît un renouveau sans précédent dans les pays industrialisés tant par les champs d'activités qu'elle investit que par les partenariats qu'elle noue avec les autres acteurs de la société. Par ailleurs, dans les pays en développement, on assiste à l'émergence des sociétés civiles et à l'invention, par les communautés locales, de réponses novatrices aux énormes défis économiques et sociaux auxquels elles doivent faire face. Si les terminologies et les réalités varient forcément selon les contextes, les parallèles entre les dynamiques au Nord et au Sud sont frappants. Premier dans son genre, cet ouvrage propose d'embrasser d'un seul regard l'économie sociale telle qu'elle s'affirme aujourd'hui au Nord et au Sud de la planète. Il présente les réalisations de l'économie sociale dans des secteurs aussi importants que la santé, l'épargne et le crédit, le commerce international ou la lutte contre le chômage. Il propose aussi plusieurs grilles de lecture très complémentaires pour saisir les enjeux de ces nouveaux développements. Ce livre démontre qu'au-delà des frontières de toutes sortes, on retrouve partout des initiatives coopératives, mutualistes et associatives qui réinventent un espace entre les secteurs privé et public traditionnels, et que ce troisième secteur joue un rôle de plus en plus important dans le monde d'aujourd'hui.

Download or read book State Building and Late Development written by David Waldner and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does state building sometimes promote economic growth and in other cases impede it? Through an analysis of political and economic development in four countries—Turkey, Syria, Korea, and Taiwan—this book explores the origins of political-economic institutions and the mechanisms connecting them to economic outcomes. David Waldner extends our understanding of the political underpinnings of economic development by examining the origins of political coalitions on which states and their institutions depend. He first provides a political model of institutional change to analyze how elites build either cross-class or narrow coalitions, and he examines how these arrangements shape specific institutions: state-society relations, the nature of bureaucracy, fiscal structures, and patterns of economic intervention. He then links these institutions to economic outcomes through a bargaining model to explain why countries such as Korea and Taiwan have more effectively overcome the collective dilemmas that plague economic development than have others such as Turkey and Syria. The latter countries, he shows, lack institutional solutions to the problems that surround productivity growth. The first book to compare political and economic development in these two regions, State Building and Late Development draws on, and contributes to, arguments from political sociology and political economy. Based on a rigorous research design, the work offers both a finely drawn comparison of development and a compellingly argued analysis of the character and consequences of "precocious Keynesianism," the implementation of Keynesian demand-stimulus policies in largely pre-industrial economies.

Download or read book Philosophy in a Time of Terror written by Giovanna Borradori and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for Philosophy in a Time of Terror was born hours after the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna Borradori sat down with Jürgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time, Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the greatest intellects of the century at work.

Download or read book The European Landscape Convention written by Michael Jones and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and insightful book provides, for the first time, a broad presentation of ongoing research into public participation in landscape conservation, management and planning, following the 2000 European Landscape Convention which came into force in 2004. The book examines both the theory of participation and what lessons can be learnt from specific European examples. It explores in what manner and to what extent the provisions for participation in the European Landscape Convention have been followed up and implemented. It also presents and compares different experiences of participation in selected countries from northern, southern, eastern and western Europe, and provides a critical examination of public participation in practice. However, while the book’s focus is necessarily on Europe, many of the conclusions drawn are of global relevance. The book provides a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students in landscape policies and management, as well as for professionals and others interested in land-use planning and environmental management.

Download or read book Vulnerable written by Colleen M. Flood and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes the disease known as COVID-19, has infected people in 212 countries so far and on every continent except Antarctica. Vast changes to our home lives, social interactions, government functioning and relations between countries have swept the world in a few months and are difficult to hold in one’s mind at one time. That is why a collaborative effort such as this edited, multidisciplinary collection is needed. This book confronts the vulnerabilities and interconnectedness made visible by the pandemic and its consequences, along with the legal, ethical and policy responses. These include vulnerabilities for people who have been harmed or will be harmed by the virus directly and those harmed by measures taken to slow its relentless march; vulnerabilities exposed in our institutions, governance and legal structures; and vulnerabilities in other countries and at the global level where persistent injustices harm us all. Hopefully, COVID-19 will forces us to deeply reflect on how we govern and our policy priorities; to focus preparedness, precaution, and recovery to include all, not just some. Published in English with some chapters in French.

Download or read book Empowerment written by John Friedmann and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1992-07-27 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-thirds of the population of the world are poor, and their number is growing in the first as well as in the third world, despite billions of dollars of aid. The economic development policies of the last two decades, and the theory which gave rise to them, have been discredited. The rich are disillusioned, apprehensive or uninterested, while the poor are embittered and without hope, the victims and agents of ignorance, instability and environmental degradation. The need for radical rethinking is urgent: this book makes an important contribution towards that end. John Friedmann argues that poverty should be seen not merely in material terms, but as social, political and psychological powerlessness. He presents the case for an alternative development committed to empowering the poor in their own communities, and to mobilizing them for political participation on a wider scale. In contrast to centralized development policies devised and implemented at the national and international level, alternative development restores the initiative to those in need, on the grounds that unless people have an active role in directing their own destinies long-term progress will not be achieved. The author takes the household as the strategic starting-point - stressing its moral, political and economic potential - as a source of continuity and as a location for production. From this basis he propounds a politics of emancipation that would enable the disempowered poor to assert their rights. Empowerment provides a morally-informed theoretical framework for a development policy that meets the needs of its recipients rather than of its makers.
