Produktbeskrivning
Poverty & Development in the 21st Century provides a fully updated, interdisciplinary overview of one of the world''s most complex and pressing social problems. The book analyses and assesses key questions faced by practitioners and policy makers, ranging from what potential solutions to world poverty are open to us to what form development should take and whether it is compatible with environmental sustainability.The third edition considers the complex causes of global poverty and inequality, introducing major development issues that include hunger, disease, the threat of authoritarian populism, the refugee crisis and environmental degradation.Three new chapters illustrate the impact of climate, refugee and health crises on development by drawing on accounts of lived experience to explore the real-world implications of theory.Refreshed student-centred learning features include boxes outlining key concepts, definitions and cases that explore contested issues in greater depth.
These case studies encourage critical reflection on key issues, from refugees'' personal accounts of containment to the Ebola epidemic to indigenous perspectives on climate change. Questions posed at the start of each chapter provide a framework for critical reflection on key assumptions and theories within the field of development.
Each chapter also clearly unpacks figures and tables, supporting students to develop a nuanced understanding of economic arguments and key skills of data interpretationDigital formats and resourcesThe third edition is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats, and is supported by online resources.
