Hardcover. Condition: Like New. First Edition. Firm and square with strong joints, just showing a few very mild rubs and minor bumps. And so a non-text page is stamped 'damaged'. Despite such this book is actually in better than very good. Indeed it looks and feels unread. Thus it is bright and clean with contents that are crisp and fresh. Now offered for sale at a special bargain price. Seller Inventory # 117665

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. For over three decades, the capability approach proposed and developed by Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum has had a distinct impact on development theories and approaches because it goes beyond an economic conception of development and engages with the normative aspects of development. This book explores the new frontiers of the capability approach and its links to human development in three main areas. First, it delves into the philosophical foundations of the approach, re-examining its links to concepts of common good, collective agency and epistemic diversity. Secondly, it addresses its 'operational frontier', aiming to give inclusive explanations of some of the most advanced methods available for capability researchers. Thirdly, it offers a wide range of the applications of this approach, as carried out by a mix of renowned capability scholars and researchers from different disciplines. This broad interdisciplinary range includes the areas of human and sustainable development, inequalities, labour markets, education, special needs, cities, urban planning, housing, social capital and happiness studies, among others. Leading scholars from a range of disciplines contribute to an inclusive discussion of the latest techniques and issues examined by the capability approach. It will appeal to readers across academic backgrounds including development studies, economics, sociology, education, urban planning, political science, geography, public policy and management. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781108427807
