Book Description
The present APAD Bulletin contains a selection of papers presented at the APAD 2010 Conference in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, on the theme "Engaging Anthropology for Development and Social Change: Practices, Discourses and Ethics." Anthropological engagements face important challenges at the interface of research and development. The different ways by which anthropologists take on societal problems - either in their research capacity, as development experts, as activists, or as citizen - are inscribed in a longstanding debate. In this APAD Bulletin, the contributors deal with the central questions of how and under which conditions anthropology engages with society. The papers range from epistemological reflections and methodological queries to the anthropology of per diem and of public health, as well as to practical problems confronting anthropologists engaged in development cooperation. [PLEASE NOTE: This volume's Introduction is in English text. The remaining text is French language text only. There is no English translation.] (Series: APAD Bulletin - Vol. 34)

Entrepreneurs Et Entreprises en Quête de Normes
Author: Maud Saint-Lary
Publisher: LIT Verlag Münster
ISBN: 3643102062
Category : Africa
Languages : fr
Pages : 160
Book Description
Les contextes de crise et d'ultraliberalisme qui traversent l'Afrique aujourd'hui faconnent un grand nombre d'entrepreneurs d'un nouveau genre : ils ne sont pas forcement des commercants, des promoteurs, des petits patrons ou des businessmen du secteur informel, ils evoluent dans d'autres mondes sociaux. Qu'il s'agisse de l'art, de l'enseignement ou du religieux, ces univers produisent des entrepreneurs qui savent innover, gerer des contraintes, developper des strategies d'accumulation et faire preuve d'un veritable savoir faire managerial. Le parti pris de cet ouvrage est de considerer que la faculte d'entreprendre ne releve pas du seul champ economique, mais s'etend a d'autres spheres d'actions (politique, culturelle, religieuse, sociale) presentees comme vecteurs d'innovation.

Inventer Et Mobiliser Le Local
Author: Association euro-africaine pour l'anthropologie du changement social et du développement
Publisher: LIT Verlag Münster
ISBN: 3643105355
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
Over the last decade West African villages, rural towns, and urban neighbourhoods have experienced changes resulting from democratisation and decentralisation processes. While much hope was invested in decentralisation policies in the 1990s, today there is a need to look at everyday decentralisation practices. In this volume, authors of different scholarly backgrounds focus on political, economic and cultural aspects of decentralisation. By exploring party politics, water provision, schooling, territorial division and cultural understanding the case-studies highlight core stakes and fundamental contradictions of present-day decentralisation in West Africa.

Adventures in Aidland
Author: David Mosse
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 0857451111
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Anthropological interest in new subjects of research and contemporary knowledge practices has turned ethnographic attention to a wide ranging variety of professional fields. Among these the encounter with international development has perhaps been longer and more intimate than any of the others. Anthropologists have drawn critical attention to the interfaces and social effects of development’s discursive regimes but, oddly enough, have paid scant attention to knowledge producers themselves, despite anthropologists being among them. This is the focus of this volume. It concerns the construction and transmission of knowledge about global poverty and its reduction but is equally interested in the social life of development professionals, in the capacity of ideas to mediate relationships, in networks of experts and communities of aid workers, and in the dilemmas of maintaining professional identities. Going well beyond obsolete debates about ‘pure’ and ‘applied’ anthropology, the book examines the transformations that occur as social scientific concepts and practices cross and re-cross the boundary between anthropological and policy making knowledge.

Anthropologie et développement.
Author: Olivier de Sardan Jean-Pierre
Publisher: KARTHALA Editions
ISBN: 2811120386
Category : Social Science
Languages : fr
Pages : 230
Book Description
La socio-anthropologie considère le "développement" comme une forme particulière de changement social, qu'un ensemble complexes d'intervenants (ONG, agences nationales ou internationales ..) cherche à impulser auprès de "groupes-cibles", eux-mêmes divers et évoluant selon les dynamiques propres. Cette approche peut contribuer, pour une part modeste mais réelle, à améliorer la qualité des services que les instituions de développement proposent aux populations, en permettant une meilleure prise en compte des dynamqiues locales. Logiques, rationalités, représentations, stéréotypes, stratégies, innovations, modes d'action économique, détournements, dispositifs, savoirs techniques populaires, médiations, négociations, courtages, arènes ... Ces mots clés scandent les analyses proposées, alimentées par une abondante littérature comparée et étayées par des exemples de terrain, et dessinent un ouvrage de référence sur le sujet, qui, jusqu'à ce jour, faisait complètement défaut en France.
