Synopsis
While the terms "power” and "rights” are increasingly incorporated into the language of development agencies they have yet to fully permeate the practice of poverty reduction. Acknowledging that this partly results from a lack of clarity over the concepts of power and rights and partly from questions of how to operationalize these ideas, the World Bank and the UK Department for International Development co-sponsored a series of short papers for focusing on enhancing understanding of the relationships between power, rights, and poverty reductions. Following discussion during a two day working meeting, this publication brings together the edited papers, along with a selection of supplementary materials. A first series of papers addresses competing definitions and conceptual issues around power and rights, illustrating these with experiences observing and applying the concepts in practice in different countries. Following this, papers address topics aimed at helping development practitioners to apply these concepts to their work. Part II contains the supplemental materials, including a summary of the major theoretical conceptualizations of power, and an overview of the literature on power and rights. Prepared by leading thinkers on the topics of power and rights these materials offer both development professionals and students of development studies succinct summaries of the relationship between theory and practice., This publication contains a series of papers aimed at bringing clarity to conceptualization and application of power and rights to development approaches., While the terms 'power' and 'rights' are increasingly incorporated into the language of development agencies they have yet to fully permeate the practice of poverty reduction.

Unbelievably sleazy seller. I actually emailed them asking them why this particular copy was so cheap and the reply was a laconic oh it's just a DVD. It's actually a battered ex Library copy, it arrived loose in its case and it's highly scratched to the point where I don't even know if it's going to play or not and I haven't gotten around to testing the thing because I don't want to be upset even more. The seller is out of control I need to be banned from eBay. There was no description btw.

I was satisfied with my purchase. This seller doesn’t include full descriptions, they only use pictures. The picture in this case was of a box. Be sure to ask questions about the item BEFORE you’ve paid. When I had a question that’s what they told me (& that they do hundreds of transactions a day). As it turned out, I was satisfied with my purchase, but had no idea exactly how many CDs I was getting until I opened the package.
