The professions that are designed to help others are often deeply ingrained with a pervasive deficit perspective that may hinder the potential for people who have been historically marginalized to achieve positive outcomes and may, in unintentionally, perpetuate marginalization and limit success. Reconstructing Perceptions of Systemically Marginalized Groups, edited by Leslie Ponciano, offers a transformative solution by applying a strengths-based approach to research, theory, and practice. Challenging the prevailing mindset, this book empowers professionals in various fields to create empowering environments that recognize the value of individuals and promote positive outcomes. Covering a wide range of topics, from childhood adversity to media influence and vocational training, this comprehensive resource equips academic scholars with practical insights and strategies to challenge prevailing narratives and promote inclusivity. By embracing the strengths-based approach outlined in this book, professionals can actively contribute to dismantling the deficit perspective, paving the way for a more equitable and empowering future for people who have been historically marginalized.

This title was first published in 2002: While world-wide political, sociological and economic processes encourage the marginalization of peripheral areas, the general degradation of the ecosystem increasingly affects marginal populations as they are more likely to use natural resources. The fact that these communities suffer greatly from environmental, economic and social problems also tends to prevent them adopting a sustainable use of these local resources. Using a series of international case studies from both developed and developing countries, this remarkable volume explores issues of sustainable development in marginalized regions of the world. It discusses population development and sustainability, as well as environment and sustainability, from the point of view of regional development. It also examines globalization and the role of education in encouraging a sustainable path of development. A common focus shared by the contributors is that of the human aspects of development, as well as the concept of sustainability and its usefulness in geographical and economic research. The volume provides an insightful overview of the issues that touch sustainability in marginal and critical regions.

This book provides an up-to-date account of the many processes shaping and transforming rural space in various parts of the world. The various case studies focus on the multi-functionality of the rural world and the driving forces behind it. The book demonstrates that rural areas are no longer simply characterized by an agricultural economy, and instead accommodate multiple complementary activities. It also touches upon two major changes that have taken place. The first is the process of rurbanization, which has led to the clear distinction between town and countryside becoming blurred: urban traits have penetrated rural areas, and rural traits have invaded towns. The second change is that rural areas are increasingly seen as multi-functional, providers not only of food and other natural resources but also locations for the generation of renewable energy (wind farms, solar farms, biogas) and regions for the preservation of biodiversity. These transformations have resulted in a new understanding and self-image of rural areas and their populations.
