The ongoing social crises and moral conflicts evident in global social policy debates are addressed in this timely volume. Leading interdisciplinary scholars focus on the ‘social’ of social policy, which is increasingly conceived in a globalised form, as new international agreements and global goals engender social struggles. They tackle pressing ‘social questions’, many of which have been exacerbated by COVID-19, including growing inequality, changing world population, ageing societies, migration and intersectional disadvantage. This ground-breaking volume critically engages with contested conceptions of ‘the social’ which are increasingly deployed by international institutions and policy makers. Focusing on ‘social sustainability’, ‘social cohesion’, ‘social justice’, ‘social wellbeing’ and ‘social progress’ this text is even more crucial as policy makers look to accelerate socially sustainable solutions to the world’s biggest challenges.

This book argues that strengthening policing, and the rule of law is pivotal to promoting human rights, equity, access to justice and accountability in sub-Saharan Africa. Through a multidisciplinary approach, this book considers the principles of accountability, just laws, open government, and accessible and impartial dispute resolution, in relation to key institutions that deliver and promote the rule of law in selected countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Chapters examine a range of topics including police abuse of power and the use of force, police-citizen relations, judicial corruption, human rights abuse, brutality in the hands of armed forces, and combating arms proliferation. Drawing upon key institutions that deliver and promote the rule of law in sub-Saharan African countries including, Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Nigeria, Rwanda, and South Africa, the contributors argue that strengthening policing, security and the rule of law is pivotal to promoting human rights, equity, access to justice and accountability. As scholars from this geographical region, the contributing authors present current realities and first-hand accounts of the challenges in this context. This book will be of interest to scholars of African studies, criminology and criminal justice, police studies, international law practice, transitional justice, international development, and political science.

"This book develops an "empirical realist" theory to enable the United States to respond effectively to rising security threats and to seize new opportunities for global governance more successfully than have past policies. A synthesis of peace research and security studies shows that a global grand strategy for human security, with U.S. national security folded into it, is likely to produce more security for the United States than a grand strategy for national security pursued as an end in itself. More security advantages are likely to result from maximizing the "causes" or correlates of peace than from maximizing U.S. military power. Peace reigns when these correlates are present: all nations' security fears are addressed; people can meet basic needs; nations enjoy reciprocal rights and duties; they are treated equitably; their lives are predictable because the international system is governed by the rule of law; and they participate in the decisions that affect their lives through fair representation in democratic global governing processes. This approach revolutionizes thinking about national security policy by transforming it into human security policy. Evidence suggests that the anarchic, militarized balance-of-power system can be gradually changed with help from enhanced international lawmaking and enforcing capacities. To promote change, concerned policymakers and citizens could withdraw their support from U.S. policies that do not serve the common good and work to implement a global grand strategy for human security that would simultaneously serve U.S. security interests and uphold the value of human dignity for all"--

People are using the future to search for better ways to achieve sustainability, inclusiveness, prosperity, well-being and peace. In addition, the way the future is understood and used is changing in almost all domains, from social science to daily life. This book presents the results of significant research undertaken by UNESCO with a number of partners to detect and define the theory and practice of anticipation around the world today. It uses the concept of ‘Futures Literacy’ as a tool to define the understanding of anticipatory systems and processes – also known as the Discipline of Anticipation. This innovative title explores: • new topics such as Futures Literacy and the Discipline of Anticipation; • the evidence collected from over 30 Futures Literacy Laboratories and presented in 14 full case studies; • the need and opportunity for significant innovation in human decision-making systems. This book will be of great interest to scholars, researchers, policy-makers and students, as well as activists working on sustainability issues and innovation, future studies and anticipation studies.

El progreso social puede verse como un objetivo a alcanzar o como una amenaza de la que conviene apartarse. En décadas recientes hemos atestiguado el declive de la pobreza mundial y el arribo de la democracia a numerosos países, la ampliación de programas de salud y educación, con innegables mejoras en la esperanza y la calidad de vida, pero a la vez reina una atmósfera de escepticismo sobre la posibilidad —y la conveniencia— de inducir un progreso social como el alcanzado por las sociedades más desarrolladas, con su cauda de desigualdad y sus costos ambientales. En busca de soluciones a los problemas globales, el Panel Internacional sobre Progreso Social reunió a más de 300 científicos sociales para que, con base en estudios novedosos, con una vocación multidisciplinaria y una mirada prospectiva, revisaran numerosas opciones de cambio social a largo plazo, exploraran los retos actuales y propusieran formas de mejorar las principales instituciones de las sociedades modernas. De ese trabajo colaborativo surge este manifiesto, en el que el ánimo utópico convive con el pragmatismo, en el que la búsqueda de justicia es compatible con el fortalecimiento de actores clave, como la empresa o el mercado. La conclusión es simple y a la vez entraña enormes complicaciones: sí es posible una sociedad mejor pero urge armonizar diversas fuerzas. Para lograr un cambio cultural de grandes proporciones, se requiere una audaz mezcla de idealismo y sensatez. Es lo que este manifiesto ofrece.

Este livro, inspirado no Painel Internacional sobre Progresso Social, foi escrito para um público mais geral, a fim de compartilhar a mensagem de esperança do relatório maior: Uma sociedade melhor é de fato possível, seus contornos podem ser amplamente descritos e tudo o que precisamos é juntar forças no sentido de concretizar essa visão. Embora se baseie amplamente no relatório, ele é complementar e oferece sua própria perspectiva original em uma análise coerente. Não busca resumir o relatório com toda a sua riqueza de tópicos e não pretende refletir a total diversidade de visões dos membros do Painel. É um convite para levar essas questões a sério e explorá-las mais profundamente com a ajuda do relatório completo.
