Economie sociale et développement local
Author:
Publisher: Editions L'Harmattan
ISBN: 2296359329
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : fr
Pages : 173
Book Description
Notre société est en pleine mutation et doit faire face à la disparition des modes de régulation hérités de la période fordiste et à une domination de la mondialisation néolibérale. Il existe des organisations privées collectives, créatrices de richesse, ancrées au cœur même des territoires, qui expriment des valeurs telles que la démocratie, la solidarité, la responsabilité. Ainsi, le développement local apparaît comme une construction partenariale dans laquelle l'économie sociale et solidaire peut apporter sa force de mobilisation et de proposition pour qu'émerge un autre mode de développement.

Financial Cooperatives and Local Development
Author: Silvio Goglio
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136253599
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This book examines the opportunities opened up for financial cooperatives by the recent financial crisis, and explores the role of these institutions in promoting and sustaining local development. The global financial crisis has not only shown the limits of the mainstream theory of markets and rational expectations, but has also generated a great deal of disillusionment with the banking system and underlined the importance of a healthy society for the welfare of the individual. Consequently, new and innovative ways of providing finance are needed, especially for strengthening the development of local societies.

The Politics of Development in Morocco
Author: Sylvia I. Bergh
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1786731169
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 363
Book Description
Since the mid-1990s, Morocco has sought to present itself as a model of genuine and gradual reform, with decentralisation as a key tenet of this. Here, Sylvia Bergh investigates the dynamics of popular participation and local governance, testing the extent to which the current structure builds local capacity, or whether it is, in fact, a tool for 'soft' state control. She narrates the realities of local administration and civil society to shed critical light on questions of democratic transition in North Africa. Her assessment of decentralisation and participatory development projects in rural Morocco, and the legal and policy frameworks in which they operate, leads to the conclusion that they have generally not yet led to an expansion of a civil society able to build local capacity or enhance bottom-up empowerment. Grounded in an approach of the 'anthropology of policy', this book makes an important contribution to literature on the democratisation, development and governance in North Africa.

Social Innovation, the Social Economy and World Economic Development
Author: Denis Harrisson
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9783631585627
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
The world of work and labour is in a permanent transformation affecting the various social groups in the different parts of the world quite unequally. Social innovations, related to the idea of economic progress and well-being, tackle the problems of employment leading to social exclusion and poverty as a consequence of the extreme positioning in favour of economic performance. An alternative economy complements the deficiency of both the market and the State. This volume presents contributions from scholars coming from different continents, about Social Economy, Labour Rights, corporate Social Responsibility, Social Regulations and Public Policies. Social innovations have huge impacts on national and regional economies as their sources come from the citizen. Many initiatives presented in this volume are a social response by civil society to poverty, precarious employment, job losses, long term unemployment, delocalisation and de-industrialisation.

Tackling Social Exclusion in Europe
Author: Roger Spear
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351791753
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
This book is the result of an international study by leading economists and sociologists from across Europe and North America. The response of the new social economy (primarily voluntary and co-operative sectors) to social exclusion and employability in the context of crises of unemployment and the welfare state is of wide international concern. This book looks specifically at the growth of enterprises and initiatives whose primary aim is the integration of unemployed and disadvantaged people into work. A common framework has been used in each of the country studies, thus allowing an interesting international comparative perspective to be developed. There is considerable interest in how the third sector is changing internationally in response to rapidly changing work and welfare systems. By distilling international experience this book makes an important contribution to debates about new ways of addressing the central issues of unemployment and social exclusion of disadvantaged people in society.
