描述
Contrary to their masculine portrayal, mines have always employed women in valuable and productive roles. Yet, pit life continues to be represented as a masculine world of work, legitimizing men as the only mineworkers and large, mechanized, and capitalized operations as the only form of mining. Bringing together a range of case studies of women miners from past and present in Asia, the Pacific region, Latin America and Africa, this book makes visible the roles and contributions of women as miners. It also highlights the importance of engendering small and informal mining in the developing world as compared to the early European and American mines. The book shows that women are engaged in various kinds of mining and illustrates how gender and inequality are constructed and sustained in the mines, and also how ethnic identities intersect with those gendered identities.

Annotation Recent years have seen calls for increased accountability in the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The IMF has recently taken some modest steps in the areas of evaluation and audit. The organization is generally perceived to be lacking in its adaptation to the new policy and governance frameworks demanded by increasing globalization. In relations across the Executive Board, IMF staff, the governments it serves and civil society, the Fund has avoided its proper share of responsibility for failed policy prescriptions, and has little incentive to adapt or improve its operations. This volume brings together leading experts from North America, Europe, Africa and SE Asia to further the debate on the various dimensions of accountability of the IMF to its various shareholders and stakeholders. Having fully explored how the notion of accountability can be pragmatically applied to the IMF, it then tests various alternative approaches and puts forward recommendations for more effective and accountable future practice. Contents: Preface; Introduction; Improving southern voice on the IMF board: Quo Vadis shareholders?, Cyrus Rustomjee; Democratizing the IMF, Andrew Eggers, Ann Florini and Ngaire Woods; Experiences with the parliamentary network on the World Bank: a view from the inside, Norbert Mao; Bringing more voices into the policy debate, Goh Chien Yen; Power without responsibility? Enhancing learning and policy accountability at the International Monetary Fund, Angela Wood; Operational policies and procedures and an ombudsman, Daniel D. Bradlow; Tighter IMF accountability? some dangers, Robert Hunter Wade; Conclusion; Index

Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are increasingly being recognized as vital to the economic growth and global inclusion and participation of developing countries. Whilst several books have been published on this subject, they are either written from a Western academic perspective or from the viewpoint of those involved with the implementation of ICT projects in developing countries. This book brings together both academics and practitioners to provide a comprehensive and insightful overview of ICT and development around the world.<p>It examines the role of IT in providing new economic and industrial opportunities, in increasing access to global information and communication, in assisting small cultural and ethnic groups to overcome disadvantages of physical distance and in catalysing initiatives towards democratic decentralization and empowerment of citizens. It also critically appraises major problems such as inappropriate focus and resource allocation, and of missed opportunities.</p><p>By combining comparative case studies from Africa, South and East Asia, South America and Eastern Europe with theoretical analysis, this volume synthesizes a range of issues related to the evident tensions that exist for developing countries as they try to balance global and local priorities through the adoption and use of ICTs.</p><p><br><b>About the Author:</b><br>S. Madon, Dr, Lecturer in Information Systems, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK</p>

How do young people make effective transitions into work? This question has occupied the minds of parents and young people, and also researchers and policy makers, as they face up to challenges presented by globalization and technological change. The foremost governmental response to this challenge has been to expand training systems to improve young people's qualifications. However, it is clear that for many this response has failed to deliver the promised rewards and the legitimation of this strategy has been exhausted. This book explores developments in training and in social welfare to show that third way administrations in England and New Zealand are reconnecting young people to the labour market through creating social networks. Social Exclusion and the Remaking of Social Networks describes how networks are being remade by the state in commodified forms.

Little, head of the Centre for Innovation, Knowledge and Enterprise (Open U. Business School, Milton Keynes, UK), considers the social nature of design and the implications of new information technology on design and development in the context of the digital divide. He is particularly concerned with ensuring that both the form and the content of technology are appropriate for productive material and cultural use in low-income areas; his intent is to move beyond the binarism that separates the design of technology from the conditions of its use. Little looks, moreover, at the role of information and communication technologies in globalization and the global and local implications of development inequities arising from it. The volume lacks a subject index. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
