Adjustment with a Human Face: Protecting the vulnerable and promoting growth
Author: Giovanni Andrea Cornia
Publisher: Oxford [Oxfordshire] : Clarendon Press ; Oxford [Oxfordshire] ; New York : Oxford University Press
ISBN:
Category : Child welfare
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Following three decades of progress, improvements in the welfare of children and other vulnerable groups worldwide began to falter in the mid-1970s. World recession, and in particular the debt crisis in Latin America and African famine, have seriously affected economic development programs in less developed countries. At the same time, however, large-scale health programs have had a noticeable impact. This study both illustrates the extent of the current crisis and points to the successes to show how welfare policies can--and must--become part of national planning even when the economy is in crisis.

Human Development in an Unequal World
Author: K. Seeta Prabhu
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199095663
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
Human Development in an Unequal World deals with the twenty-first-century challenges of unstable economic growth and sustainability and the re-emergence of deprivations and inequalities in multiple realms. It argues that the broader perspective of human development is most suited in reorienting development towards a more equitable, sustainable, and empowering world. The authors discuss the concept and philosophy of the capabilities and human development approach, its measurement, the links between economic growth and human development, and the role of social sector policy, gender equality, and securing sustainability. In doing so, they analyse frameworks, processes, institutions, and actors, and weave together concepts, methods, and evidence from numerous developing countries. The chapters offer an integrated understanding of the importance of capabilities, freedoms, and human flourishing in the process of development. This volume calls for an approach that focuses on the humanness of development and brings people back to the centre stageāa phenomenon that has receded to the background in the neoliberal era.
