(viewed Jan. 20, 2010). aIncludes bibliographical references. aWhy is global development so unequal in its social impact? How are global relations represented in local developments, and vice versa? What role do social movements play in shaping global development? These are some of the questions animating this state-of-the-art collection of essays. Subdivided into sections posing research, policy, and strategic questions regarding contemporary social change, this volume brings together scholars well-known for challenging conventional wisdoms in the sociology of global development. In exploring development, these chapters range across the global North and South, economic sectors, policy scales, state/civil society relations, social models, and changing compositional and contextual dimensions of capitalism. Authors introduce conceptual innovations regarding the spatial boundaries of development, sovereignty and the politics of globalization, food regime analysis, recompositions of rural activity, the question of the national bourgeoisies role in the developing world, the health dimensions of food and farming, and the salience of regional governance in sustainable development. Methodologically, this collection breaks new ground with essays reinterpreting commodity chain analysis, accounting for the impoverishing impact of resource extraction, incorporating social movements into the analysis of development, and historically specifying contemporary trends in global development. aDescription based on print version record. 0aEconomic developmentxSociological aspectsvCongresses. 0aGlobalizationxSocial aspectsvCongresses. 7aGlobalization.2bicssc 7aDevelopment studies.2bicssc 7aSocial SciencexHuman Geography.2bisacsh1 aButtel, Frederick H.1 aMcMichael, Philip.08iPrint version:tNew directions in the sociology of global development.dAmsterdam ; Oxford : Elsevier JAI, 2005z0762312505w(OCoLC)61425724 0aResearch in rural sociology and development ;vv. 11.40uhttp://www.emeraldinsight.com/1057-1922/11 1SSbacklist c222863d222863
