Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book serves as a comprehensive reference for conducting political analyses of emerging welfare systems in the Global South. These countries have adopted a development-oriented approach, distinct from the social policy trajectory observed in industrialized capitalist states. However, the pervasive influence of globalization since the 1990s has significantly reshaped policy priorities in these regions. Notably, political discourse surrounding social policyconcepts developed in the Northern capitalist states has gained prominence.Irrespective of the geographical focus of the chapters, the book delves into fundamental social policyconcepts and debates. These include the ongoing discourse between "universalism" and "selectivity," the challenges posed by the welfare residuum, the intricate role of institutional norms and apparatuses in achieving justice or engendering feelings of shame among social assistance recipients, and the examination of "absolute" and "relative" poverty. Additionally, the book investigates the pendulum shift within social welfare policies, the complex politics surrounding the portrayal of welfarerecipients, and the newly established link between poverty and shame.Comprising 12 chapters, the book employs a case study-based approach to test the applicability and universalityof social policy theories and concepts. The central focus lies in assessing the adaptability of concepts and theories developed in the Global North to comprehend the intricacies of welfare politics in the Global South. These case studies contribute to theoretical generalizations capable of explaining universal principles that are relevant to both the Global South and North. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Protecting the poor against poor health is a huge task for governments in low income settings. In this book, Cleopas explores the experience of two Southern African nations (Malawi and Zambia) in their efforts to provide cover for the marginalized and maps out the possible solutions to the challenges experienced. Although the two nations take a slightly different approach,the review found that access and utilization of health services have significantly improved in both cases.Coverage of services is however still limited. Services are free in principle but poor households still bear indirect costs and structural factors still threaten household accessibility to services.The analysis also finds the targeting strategies used in delivering services inadequate although the EHP approach used by Malawi appears to yield better results. Consequently, health systems should be strengthened and remote areas targeted. Both governments need to increase social protection budgets and donors should pool support to reduce coordination problems. Also,a quasi-internal market in health care is proposed as a viable option. Further inquiry into the qualitative effects of these policies is necessary.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 84 pp. Englisch.
