paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The last two years have seen a huge amount of academic, policy-making and media interest in the increasingly contentious issue of land grabbing - the large-scale acquisition of land in the global South. It is a phenomenon against which locals seem defenceless, and one about which multilateral organizations, such as the World Bank, as well as civil-society organizations and action NGOs have become increasingly vocal.This in-depth and empirically diverse volume - taking in case studies from across Africa, Asia and Latin America - takes a step back from the hype to explore a number of key questions: Does the 'global land grab' actually exist If so, what is new about it And what, beyond the immediately visible dynamics and practices, are the real problems A comprehensive and much-needed intervention on one of the most hotly contested but little-understood issues facing countries of the South today. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Trust and Trust-Making in Africa's Global Connections is a thought-provoking book contributing to both African Studies and the study of trust in society. The volume provides rich ethnographic insights into the ways trust and trust-making shape Africans' global encounters. It traces empirical foundations of trust and distrust, illustrates the wide variation in manifestations of trust-building, and critically positions these observations in the contemporary moment of global polycrisis. Trust and trust-making, we show, as these critically engage with global power relations, are acting both as a catalyst of harm and a potential source of positive change.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - With the end of the Cold War, the world seemed to move from a bipolar to a unipolar system, with the neoliberal West globally imposing its laws. However, it has been acknowledged that other actors, such as China, India and Brazil, have become increasingly influential, helping to lead to a new multipolarity at the global level. The question of what this emerging multipolarity means for Africa is important. Will Africa become crushed in a mounting struggle over raw materials and political hegemony between superpowers and fall victim to a new scramble for Africa Or does this new historic conjuncture offer African countries and groups greater room for negotiation and manoeuvring, eventually leading to stronger democracy and enhanced growth The chapters in this volume offer food for thought on how Africa's engagements with the world are currently being reshaped and revalued, and, importantly--on whose terms.…
