Beschrijving
The world economy is expanding rapidly despite chronic economic crises. Yet the majority of the world's population live in poverty.
"
The Struggle for Development
is a compelling inversion of development from the perspective of labour relations and struggles. Combining parsimony with verve, Ben Selwyn offers a didactic account of global labour conditions, movements and future possibilities, laying out a comprehensive alternative development agenda."
Philip McMichael, Cornell University
"In this trenchant analysis, Selwyn goes beyond a critique of the existing patterns of global accumulation and the poverty chains they generate to provide an optimistic argument of how labour struggles can generate genuinely democratic development. This is an important contribution re-envisioning social and economic progress for our times."
Jayati Ghosh, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi
Benjamin Selwyn
is Professor of International Relations and International Development at the University of Sussex.
