Hardback. Condition: New. This timely Handbook demonstrates that global linkages, flows and circulations merit a more central place in theorization about development. Calling for a mobilities turn, it challenges the sedentarist assumptions which still underlie much policy making and planning for the future. Expert contributors analyze development from a mobilities perspective, exploring how globalization connects distant people and places, so that what happens in one place has direct bearing on another. Chapters provide an overview of the global trends related to the flows of people and capital over the past decade, and offer insights into the consequences of developmental practices and policies that unfold on the ground. Drawing on specific case studies from Africa, Asia and Latin America, this Handbook considers how, in many localities, livelihood opportunities are ever more shaped by positionality, and the ways in which people are attached to and participate in translocal and transnational networks. Providing a bottom-up analysis of the implications of globalization for translocal development, this Handbook will be a valuable resource for scholars and students of development studies, human geography, and sustainability and environmental science. Its use of global case studies will also be useful for practitioners and policy makers who desire a better understanding of the developmental impact of policies and investments.…

Hardback. Condition: New. This Modern Guide examines how to achieve inclusive and sustainable development in shrinking regions. Leading experts explore solutions for the socio-economic challenges in these areas while also re-thinking migration and integration policies.Chapters assess welcoming initiatives across Europe, evaluating how those that engage with migrant newcomers contribute to economic, political and social prosperity in their respective localities. Identifying factors that limit the success of welcoming initiatives, such as fragmentation and challenges in scaling support, contributors illustrate how progress is constrained beyond the local level. This Modern Guide highlights the need for new criteria to define community belonging, based on people's contributions to their community rather than legal or normative assumptions of belonging. Analysing how migrant newcomers and long-term residents can integrate into a diverse and cohesive community, authors present methods for learning from comparison and scaling up initiatives.Innovative and timely, A Modern Guide to Migration and Spatial Justice in Europe is a crucial resource for students and scholars of geography, anthropology, sociology, politics and public policy, as well as urban and regional studies. Policymakers will also benefit from its insights into social justice action.…
