Abstract

China’s and India’s strong appetite for energy and metal has boosted international prices and the volume and value of African exports. China in particular has become the main trade partner for a number of African countries providing cheap manufactured goods and reducing Africa's dependence from its traditional trading partners. Despite the push for exports, terms of trade and growth that the Asian giants provide to Africa, risks for sustainable poverty reduction are visible in higher raw material dependence and rent-seeking activities.

Abstract

Le développement durable, concept popularisé par la Conférence de l’ONU à Rio de Janeiro en 1992, revêt pour le Sud une double signification : le rappel des valeurs conservatrices de l’environnement rendu nécessaire par la reproduction des sociétés capitalistes du Nord et du Sud, et la place centrale des rapports sociaux dans la durabilité des ressources naturelles. La mondialisation des rapports marchands contemporains constitue un obstacle majeur à la durabilité.

Abstract

For all societies, the common denominator of gender is female subordination. For women of the Third World, the effects of this position are exacerbated by the legacy of colonialism, economic crisis, and patriarchal attitudes. Feminist critique has introduced the gender factor to development theory, arguing that the equal distribution of the benefits of economic development can only be achieved through a radical restructuring of the process of development. Now, the universal validity of both gender-neutral development theory and the feminist concepts of the post-industrial world are being questioned. In this book, Janet Momsen presents ten worldwide case studies which act as personalized examples of women's lives and coping strategies in the Third World. Her review of policy and practice raises questions about development planning and the empowerment of women. The book concludes with a discussion of the impact of environmental degradation and economic restructuring on women, with a description of the integralposition of women in any solution to the current crises facing the Third World.
