Описание: The financial crisis in advanced economies and its impact on developing countries has put the longer term agenda of development - structural transformation of countries, of their growth, jobs, poverty and distribution - on the analytic and policy backburner.
Описание: SME's are acknowledged as effective sources of jobs and incomes, gaining an important position in the development agenda, subsequently 'cluster' policies were conceived as a framework to augment the effects of SMEs and to optimize resources used to support them. Based on case studies from Brazil, Vietnam, Indonesia and India, this volume examines SME clusters and argues that unless they counteract common problems such as very low wages, poor working conditions, poor quality products and lack or environmental regulation, they will be pushed out of the market and so become unsustainable. This book suggests that the SME clusters currently being stretched should react by 'socially upgrading' in order to improve their innovation capacity, as well as social, environmental and labour standards. It puts forward conceptual frameworks which explain the way firms can upgrade: through markets, interaction among cluster members, through Corporate Social Responsibility and other such public policy, and through the better enforcement of regulation.

Описание: This book will explore case studies of child poverty in a range of countries, including those that are highly industrialized; those that are considered to be middle-income countries; and the least developed countries. Throughout, the book will highlight the similarities of experience, which call for an international and coordinated response. At the same time, the book will also highlight the localized experiences of child poverty which may vary greatly. The implication is that international efforts have to be complemented with more localized approaches that are contextualized. Additionally, the book will critically examine some of the policy formulations that are designed to deal with the problem of child poverty. However, this critique will be done in such a way as to highlight the possibilities, limitations, and suggestions for improvement concerning policies that are designed to alleviate or eliminate child poverty.This book will explore case studies of child poverty in a range of countries, including those that are highly industrialized; those that are considered to be middle-income countries; and the least developed countries.

Описание: EPDF and EPUB available Open Access under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.Millions of children throughout Africa undertake many forms of farm and domestic work. Some of this work is for wages, some is on their family’s own small plots and some is forced and/or harmful. This book examines children’s involvement in such work. It argues that framing all children’s engagement in economic activity as ‘child labour’, with all the associated negative connotations, is problematic. This is particularly the case in Africa where many rural children must work to survive and where, the contributors argue, much of the work undertaken is not harmful. The conceptual and case-based chapters reframe the debate about children’s work and harm in rural Africa with the aim of shifting research, public discourse and policy so that they better serve the interest of rural children and their families.
