Beyond Micro-Credit: Putting Development Back Into

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fisher, Thomas / Sriram, M. S. / Harper, Malcolm, PUBLISHER: Oxfam, Micro-finance is an instrument for development. However, the developmental purposes of microfinance are often lost behind the dominant focus on the technology and management of micro-finance, or on outreach to poor clients. This book challenges the microfinance industry to go beyond such a narrow focus, looking at the range of development goals for which microfinance can be used. These include not only poverty alleviation through providing savings, credit, and insurance, but also promoting livelihoods, empowering women, building people's organizations, and changing institutions. The book richly illustrates each of these from actual micro-finance practice and explores the organizational challenges of combining such development goals with financial service-provision. The book is based on the great diversity of microfinance practice in India, which has developed numerous innovations, from new products for promoting livelihoods to democratic governance. The book provides the most comprehensive analysis available of Indian innovation and practice in microfinance, including detailed analysis of the "self-help groups" in India, comparisons with microfinance in Bangladesh, and the latest performance and impact assessment.

Writing the Wind: A Celtic Resurgence

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Crowe, Thomas R. / Hubbard, Tom / Denez, Gwendal, PUBLISHER: New Native Press, A comprehensive look in English at poets from Wales, Brittany, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall and the Isle of Man. Along with poets who are legendary and household names in their native countries, such as Sorley MacLean, Bobi Jones and Anjela Duval, are more than fifty of the new young voices of modern Celtic literature. In tone, these voices of The New Celtic Poetry are equally as sensitive as they are subversive. In this they mirror the struggle and resiliency of a century of language activist-writers who have defied the attempts at cultural genocide by the English and the French -- and have continued to write and speak their languages. The result of that staying power is evidenced in a ground swell of literary activity during the last half of the twentieth century in all six Celtic countries represented in this book.

Economics of Population Aging: The "Graying" of Australia,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Schulz, James H. / Borowski, Allan / Crown, William H., PUBLISHER: Auburn House Pub. Co., This book examines claims that aging populations will create serious economic problems for various nations. It examines the question in large part through the eyes of researchers and legislators in three target countries: Australia, Japan, and the United States. These countries were chosen because of similar states of economic development and because all were experiencing a rapid aging of their populations. A comprehensive overview is provided of the economic issues related to aging populations. Several aspects are explored in more depth. To date, it is the most complete and thorough study of economic issues associated with population aging. After a brief review of the phenomenon of demographic aging, the authors give a summary of the major economic programs offered to the aged. Extensive research is used to evaluate the concept of dependency ratios and to predict the impact on younger and older persons of future economic and demographic growth. This discussion then provides the basis for a review of evolving retirement policies in the three countries. Special attention is given to the way pension plans have been designed, especially early and mandatory retirement policies. An assessment of the adequacy of retirement income follows. The final three chapters are devoted to policy options for the future, given trends in demographic aging. Social scientists and economists will be most interested in this study.

The Price of Freedom Denied: Religious Persecution and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Grim, Brian J. / Finke, Roger, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, The Price of Freedom Denied shows that, contrary to popular opinion, ensuring religious freedom for all reduces violent religious persecution and conflict. Others have suggested that restrictions on religion are necessary to maintain order or preserve a peaceful religious homogeneity. Brian J. Grim and Roger Finke show that restricting religious freedoms is associated with higher levels of violent persecution. Relying on a new source of coded data for nearly 200 countries and case studies of six countries, the book offers a global profile of religious freedom and religious persecution. Grim and Finke report that persecution is evident in all regions and is standard fare for many. They also find that religious freedoms are routinely denied and that government and the society at large serve to restrict these freedoms. They conclude that the price of freedom denied is high indeed.

Virtually every child is assured of success. Today, the program has a proven, nationwide track record and the soundness of such an approach is strongly supported by current research on brain function, language acquisition, and reading.

Acid Earth: The Politics of Acid Pollution

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McCormick, John / McCormick, John, PUBLISHER: Routledge, Acid rain was the environmental issue of the s, attracting the kinds of headlines which, today, are more often devoted to global warming and threats to the ozone layer. But while industrialized countries have taken measures to reduce the emissions that lead to acid rain, the problems of acidification have not gone away. Trees are still dying; lakes are still being made uninhabitable; buildings are still corroding; and human health is still suffering. The most worrying trend is the repetition in the industrializing countries of Asia and Latin America of the problems that have long afflicted Europe and North America.More than 10 years after it was first published, the highly acclaimed Acid Earth still provides the only global view of acidification, and remains the standard text on the problem. In this third edition-completely updated and extensively revised-the science, politics and economics of acidification are described with a clarity and comprehensiveness available from no other source. Chapters on the causes, effects and growing scientific understanding of acid pollution, and the possible solutions, are followed by detailed studies of the political struggles involved in responding to acid damage in western and eastern Europe, the US, and in the newly industrialising countries. Written for specialists, students and anyone interested in the problems of the environment, Acid Earth warns that the problems have not gone away, and that a renewed sense of public and political will are needed if they are to be brought under control.
