"A welcome addition to the literature on poverty.... The book is full of interesting descriptions." --Economic and Political Weekly "Rethinking Rural Poverty is the result of painstaking research undertaken by the team of five researchers and makes absorbing reading. The incisive analysis of the poverty problem will be found to be useful by researchers as well as policy makers." --Journal of Rural Development "The authors of this valuable book have tried to analyse and disseminate the factors which are responsible for continued poverty in rural Bangladesh. All 17 essays have very lucidly highlighted the many facets of poverty as a state and as a process.... A thorough reading and clear understanding, particularly of the methodological and conceptual issues, will be of great help to researchers, policy-makers and programme implementors, particularly in the developing nations." --Deccan Herald Lacking neither in will nor in initiative, a majority of the rural population in the developing world lives bleak lives full of deprivation and vulnerabilities. Poverty is the making not of individuals, but of society and history. Today, rural poverty remains the single most important challenge for much of the developing world. Viewing poverty as a multidimensional reality, Rethinking Rural Poverty provides a penetrating look at this serious contemporary problem. Taking Bangladesh as a case study, it highlights the many facets of poverty not only as a state but as a process as well. Empirically rich and based on primary data, Rethinking Rural Poverty deals with the methodological challenges of rural poverty research, offering an innovative, one-of-a-kind contribution in the use of self-evaluations by the rural poor. Students of economics and development studies will appreciate the insights this text offers.

The vastness and isolation of the American West forged a dependence on scarce natural resources especially water, forests, fish, and minerals. Today, the internet is shaping another revolution, and it promises both obstacles and opportunity. Seeking to understand the impact of a global society on western small towns, the author, director of the Western Rural Development Center at Utah State University, conducted strategic planning roundtables in thirteen states.

This book examines the dynamics underpinning the implementation of Zimbabwe’s fast track land reforms. By utilising ethnographic data gathered in central Zimbabwe, the book goes beyond the polarised debates which dominated scholarship in the earlier period to highlight the changing livelihoods occasioned by the land reform. The book argues that despite the challenges faced by the newly resettled farmers, the land reform has allowed landless and land-short peasants access to land and other natural resources which were previously enclosed to them under a bi-modal agrarian structure inherited from colonialism.

Rethinking Rural Health Ethics written by Christy Simpson and has been published by Springer this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017-08-13 with Philosophy categories.
This book challenges readers to rethink rural health ethics. Traditional approaches to health ethics are often urban-centric, making implicit assumptions about how values and norms apply in health care practice, and as such may fail to take into account the complexity, depth, richness, and diversity of the rural context. There are ethically relevant differences between rural health practice and rural health services delivery and urban practice and delivery that go beyond the stereotypes associated with rural life and rural health services. This book examines key values in the rural context that have not been fully explored or taken into account when we examine health ethics issues, including the values of community and place, and a need to “revalue” relationships. It also advocates for a greater attention to meso and macro level analysis in rural health ethics as being critical to ethical analysis of rural health care. This book is essential reading for those involved in health ethics, rural health policy and governance, and for rural health providers.

This important book is the re-titled third edition of the extremely well received and widely used Agricultural Extension (van den Ban & Hawkins, 1988, 1996). Building on the previous editions, Communication for Rural Innovation maintains and adapts the insights and conceptual models of value today, while reflecting many new ideas, angles and modes of thinking concerning how agricultural extension is taught and carried through today. Since the previous edition of the book, the number and type of organisations that apply communicative strategies to foster change and development in agriculture and resource management has become much more varied and this book is aimed at those who use communication to facilitate change in agriculture and resource management. Communication for Rural Innovation is essential reading for process facilitators, communication division personnel, knowledge managers, training officers, consultants, policy makers, extension specialists and managers of agricultural extension or research organisations. The book can also be used as an advanced introduction into issues of communicative intervention at BSc or MSc level.

Rethinking Rural Studies presents an explicitly trans-disciplinary perspective on rural social science. David L. Brown and Mark Shucksmith identify emerging issues and research avenues on the topic, highlighting opportunities for rural studies to contribute towards greater collective wellbeing. This timely book moves away from a binary division of rural and urban to posit that rural and urban areas are closely interrelated through social, economic, demographic and environmental processes. The authors emphasize the central role that power plays in structuring vulnerabilities and opportunities, and indicate the emerging possibilities caused by greater rural agency. Ultimately they argue that this is a critical time to rethink rural studies, asking how and what rural studies can contribute towards better rural futures. Written in an accessible style, this book is an invigorating read for scholars of sociology, human geography, planning and urban studies and population studies. The sustained focus on how social science research can promote social and spatial justice and equality also makes this an important read for those studying inequality.
