Mosley Paul: Overseas Aid 2nd Edition

Overseas Aid 2nd Edition

Its Defence and Reform

This field-redefining book puts land redistribution back on the map as a route for addressing deep inequalities in development, promoting improved livelihoods, and ensuring better environmental protection. Written by a world-leading team of scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and activists, all hailing from the regions they discuss, Redistributive Land Reform Revisited compares land reform experiences in eight countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Europe. Each case study is based on longitudinal research covering economic, political, and environmental impacts over 30 to 40 years. By examining global land reform experiences, the book contributes to future policies that promote economic development, equity, and social justice. Written in a style accessible to researchers, policymakers, and practitioners and activists alike, this book is a must-read for anyone seriously concerned with how informed land reform policies can lead to more socially and environmentally sustainable development. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Challenging Inequality in the 21st Century

Redistributive Land Reform

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. Despite decades of gender equality policies, women, girls, and gender diverse people are still the most negatively impacted by the climate crisis and food and housing insecurity. So where will the financing for change come from? This edited collection demonstrates that public banks hold untapped potential to advance a gender-transformative development agenda. Offering case studies from around the world, it examines how and to what extent national and regional public banks are addressing structural inequalities through their governance, mandates, and lending practices. Focusing on institutions with strong social development goals, the book highlights the promising practices that are already driving positive change.

Transformative Approaches to Financing for Development

Public Banks and Gender Equality

In many parts of the world, 100-degree days are already common. In the Indian subcontinent, temperatures can become so high that concrete in the cities buckles. In Morocco, hotter and longer droughts threaten crops and livestock, possibly wiping out the livelihood of millions. The lives of the world's poorest are already harder, hotter, and shorter thanks to emissions that disproportionately come from the world's richest. But just as the rich world's emissions are finally falling, poorer countries' are set to increase drastically. We seem to be caught in an impossible bind-but it's not too late.Renowned economists Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo (co-recipients of the 2019 Nobel Prize), and Michael Greenstone propose a radical new approach to combating climate change and the devastation that is already causing the most serious global crisis of our time. Substantial progress is possible if the wealthiest countries compensate the poorer countries for the harms that their emissions cause and, in exchange, poorer countries commit to climate action. Based on meticulous original research, years of fieldwork around the world, and deep engagement with world leaders and climate negotiators, Banerjee, Duflo, and Greenstone dive deeply into the specifics to show how this grand bargain would work to curtail emissions and address the suffering of the world's neediest.This paradigm-shifting and inspiring book reassures us that we can successfully confront the challenge. We can protect the poor while protecting our future. It's just economics.

Understand how circular economy principles reshape business strategy and practice. The Circular Economy by Suzanne Smit and Uthayasankar Sivarajah is a practical and theory-informed textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students studying Circular Economy, Sustainable Business and related business and management courses.

This textbook includes: - A four-part framework covering planning, organizing, leading and controlling circular economy initiatives - Clear explanations of circular economy theories, strategies and performance metrics - Application of circular principles to finance, operations, supply chain management and business storytelling - Real-world examples illustrating how organizations manage circular transitions - Online resources including lecturer slides and a lecturer's manual Whether studying sustainable business or preparing for roles in strategy, operations or sustainability, this textbook equips students with the knowledge and practical insight needed to support and lead circular transformation in organizations.

The emergence of financial technologies has unlocked a myriad of possibilities for reshaping governance systems, from the grassroots level of micro-governance to the broader scope of national and transnational governance. This book thoroughly examines the significant impact of cutting-edge financial technology on enhancing worldwide access to financial services. In an era marked by persistent governance challenges, it highlights the transformative potential of AI-driven solutions in fostering more equitable economic participation. Overcoming traditional banking barriers to serve underserved and unbanked communities, the book investigates the fourth wave of fintech innovation depicted by AI, blockchain technologies and decentralized systems. The book begins by presenting the fundamentals of digital innovation, particularly emphasising the transformative role of AI-powered financial tools in improving banking experiences for various global communities. It emphasizes the role of digital payment platforms in bridging the gap between urban and rural populations, as well as the way blockchain technology and smart contracts are setting new benchmarks for transaction security and transparency. Its primary focus is on the strategies for overcoming financial exclusion. Cybersecurity compliance, ethical AI, data governance, and regulatory coordination are considered essential for creating trustworthy digital financial systems. Additionally, it thoroughly examines the alternative credit scoring methods that use non-traditional data to transform lending and presents the opportunities and challenges that will shape the future of finance, with a particular emphasis on central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), sustainable blockchain solutions, and artificial intelligence collaborations. For scholars, researchers and policymakers working to create a more accessible and sustainable financial future, the book offers a thorough overview of the state of inclusive fintech today and a predictive outlook on how technology can promote global economic equity.
