From Mainstream To Digital - South African Perspectives On Participatory Media Cultures

~~99,38€~~ 89,44€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 From Mainstream to Digital explores the complex landscape of digital participation in a country where both digital and traditional media interact in shaping public life. As digital platforms have become ubiquitous, they no longer exist solely as alternatives to mainstream media, reshaping how identity, politics, and culture are expressed and contested. This collection acknowledges the expanding influence of digital platforms in South Africa. While digital spaces offer the potential for greater inclusivity and grassroots participation, they also replicate the economic and structural inequalities such as data control, algorithmic biases, and the commodification of self-expression.Chapters explore how South African users leverage these platforms to reclaim agency, subvert dominant narratives, and build socio-economic value, while also navigating the competing pressures of self-representation and commercialisation. From the challenge of beauty standards on Instagram to townships businesses harnessing social media to reconfigure local economies, the studies highlight the creative and transformative ways digital media is being used for self-definition and resistance. They critically examine the limitations imposed by factors like power and historical injustice, which continue to shape access, visibility, and participation in these spaces.Grounding the exploration in the South African context, authors amplify local voices and perspectives, offering new insights into how digital media is negotiated, adapted, and repurposed within specific cultural and socio-political environments. It invites scholars, students, and practitioners to rethink participation not as a universal experience, but as a negotiation shaped by context, culture, and community.

Dietary Diversity For Sustainable Development - Local-Global Policy Lessons From Tanzania

de Hadijah Ally Mbwana e Safiness Simon Msollo

~~86,13€~~ 77,52€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 There is an urgent need for nutrition-sensitive interventions in the face of rising malnutrition, food insecurity, and climate change. As global initiatives such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) emphasize dietary diversity as a pathway to achieving better health, food security, and gender equity, this study examines the prevalence, determinants, and broader implications of dietary diversity in low-resource settings, offering a nuanced perspective that integrates global health and sustainable development frameworks.Grounded in empirical research from rural Tanzania, Dietary Diversity for Sustainable Development delves into the crucial intersection of food systems, culture, gender, and nutrition, highlighting actionable strategies for improving nutritional outcomes among women of reproductive age. By employing a culturally sensitive approach and leveraging context-specific data, the authors present practical recommendations for improving nutrition within rural communities which foregrounds women s nutritional challenges, links local insights to global imperatives, and offers replicable strategies for improving diet quality in similar low-resource settings.Bridging the gap between policy discourse and on-the-ground realities, Dietary Diversity for Sustainable Development provides a groundbreaking analysis of dietary diversity as both an indicator and a driver of sustainable development. Essential for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners, this book contributes valuable evidence-based perspectives on sustainable food systems and development.

Neoliberal Subjectivities At Work - Conduct, Commitments, Contradictions And Contestations

de Muneeb Ul Lateef Banday

~~99,38€~~ 89,44€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Neoliberalism and the fourth industrial revolution are argued to be the dominant forces transforming work and employment relations in contemporary times. Using the Indian Information Technology (IT) industry as the empirical context, Neoliberal Subjectivities at Work develops a comprehensive conceptual and analytical framework for studying contemporary employment relations governed by techno-neoliberalism.Examining how employers seek to produce employees as enterprising and technological subjects, how employees become or fail to become enterprising IT subjects and how unionized IT employees seek to contest neoliberalism through citizen-worker rights discourse, the author provides a compelling analysis of the governance and contestations of employee subjectivities. Situated in the extant debates on power, resistance and employment relations this book provides a unique account of theorizing and analyzing employees’ lived experiences of neoliberalism in the Global South. Using the analytics of governmentality and intersectionality framework and studying data generated through documents, videos, and semi-structured interviews, Banday employs a post-structuralist lens to investigate how employment relations are problematized and the consequences on the employees’ lives and resistance in contemporary workplaces.With implications beyond India and the IT sector as neoliberalism and fourth industrial revolution discourses become mainstream forces governing workers, workplaces as well as policymaking, this is important reading for researchers interested in the sociology of work and organizational and management scholarship in relation to the globalized technological neoliberal capitalism.

Rural Social Infrastructure Development In India - An Inclusive Approach

de M Mahadeva

~~99,38€~~ 89,44€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 India, despite being largely rural, has struggled to maintain an adequate social infrastructure in its rural regions due to insufficient need-based development interventions, low public spending, limited market reach and a lack of individual contributions. Examining recent policy changes that are seeking to tackle these issues, Rural Social Infrastructure Development in India advocates for transformative change against the backdrop of poverty intervention and contemporary development discourse.Delving into a transformative journey focused on inclusive housing development and financial strategies, M Mahadeva celebrates and critically analyses milestones achieved in uplifting marginalised rural populations in India.

Focusing on impactful programs like PMAY and PMJDY, chapters illuminate the interplay of public participation, political consensus and economic commitment in shaping rural social infrastructure. Aligned to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and emphasizing the pivotal roles of individuals, public authorities and strategic public investment, Mahadeva underscores the critical role of safe housing, sanitation and financial citizenship in fostering well-being and sustainable human settlements.A compelling call to action for development impact on a global scale, this mission-driven work brings us one step closer to building a more inclusive India.

'Natural' Disasters And Everyday Lives - Floods, Climate Justice And Marginalisation In India

de Suddhabrata Deb Roy

~~106,00€~~ 95,40€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Disasters have a widescale impact with drastic consequences on human lives, especially those who are marginalised by the wider society. Proposing a fresh approach towards analysing the politics of disasters, climate change and climate justice, ''Natural’ Disasters and Everyday Lives explores the relationship between citizens, the State and the society in the context of the Global South’s highly underdeveloped areas.Drawing on both theoretical frameworks and lived experience, this is the first book to document the lives of people affected by floods in the Barak Valley, a flood prone area in Southern Assam, which is also one of the most underdeveloped regions of South Asia. Narrating the fear and perils of living in an underdeveloped area in India during natural disasters, Suddhabrata Deb Roy draws from interviews conducted in Silchar, the largest and most developed urban settlement in the Barak Valley, during the floods of 2022 - the worst flood in the region in over 100 years - and during 2024 to expose the processes through which the people of the region suffer from developmental negligence and socio-political apathy. Examining the intersections of natural disasters and marginality, the author relates Marx’s ideas on humanism, nature, alienation and economic development to ideas around climate justice, marginalisation and urbanisation, taking into context the contradictions posed by factors such as class, caste, gender and race in highly underdeveloped regions in India.Recognising that these issues are addressed quite differently in the Global North, Deb Roy connects flooding in northeastern India to the context of the broader politics surrounding climate change and climate justice in the Global South, making this book important and powerful reading for countering today’s climate emergency.

~~99,38€~~ 89,44€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Human movement and mobility are at an all-time high, making it more important than ever to understand how discourses around migration shape and influence individuals and the socioeconomic conditions of the countries they both inhabit and leave behind.Featuring both intercontinental and intracontinental perspectives, authors Kunle Musbaudeen Oparinde and Rodwell Makombe present new, much-needed data from the African continent in terms of how discourses around migration are socially constructed in Africa and how this compares globally. Collected from social media and online platforms, this data spotlights the everyday realities of Nigerians and Zimbabweans, and by extension many Africans, in their quest to relocate. Unpacking reasons for migration, as well as the dominant discourses post-migration, the authors analyse the inherent feelings of migrants, potential migrants, unwilling but forced migrants and those who have chosen to remain in their countries despite harsh socioeconomic realities.Examining this pressing field of study in an underexplored regional context, Social Constructions of Migration in Nigeria and Zimbabwe takes a refreshing new angle to deepen our understanding around the causes and effects of migration.

Empowering Female Climate Change Activists In The Global South - The Path Toward Environmental Social Justice

de Peggy Ann Spitzer

3,96€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The ebook edition of this title is Open Access, thanks to Knowledge Unlatched funding, and freely available to read online.The COP27 climate change conference in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt made it clear that fighting global warming will require continuing commitment, cooperation, and collaborative action from multiple constituencies around the world. Urging readers from the Global North to rethink their approaches and potential contributions to long-term change, Empowering Female Climate Change Activists in the Global South explains how woman climate change leaders are confronting patriarchal structures to achieve social justice.Examining the lived experiences of woman climate change activists based in rural areas, Peg Spitzer presents eighty-five original interviews that feature women whose careers in business, education, politics, and the arts have championed women’s rights in Asia, environmental defenders who have established projects in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and woman farmers in three Indian villages who have faced climate-related droughts and floods. Suggesting ways in which successful climate change amelioration and adaptation led by women in the Global South may be replicated elsewhere, Spitzer also considers how NGOs and other organizations from the Global North can best contribute to facilitating positive changes in the communities where they work by focusing on empathetic cooperation.Addressing the urgent need to develop gender-just solutions that uplift and empower those who are experiencing environmental degradation in their communities, Empowering Female Climate Change Activists in the Global South uncovers the flaws in current combative structures and strategies and re-examines scholarly research at the nexus of feminism, transnational advocacy, and hierarchies of need.
