Taylor & Francis Ltd Water Food and Poverty in River Basins
Book SynopsisConventional wisdom says that the world is heading for a major water crisis. By 2050, global population will increase from 7 billion to a staggering 9.5 billion and the demands this will place on food and water systems will inevitably push river basins over the edge. The findings from this book present a different picture. While it is convenient to visualize an inevitable global water and food crisis in which increasing demands result in increasing poverty, food insecurity and conflict, the reality is far more nuanced and revolves around the politics of equitable and sustainable development of resources. The first part of this book provides detailed insight into conditions of water flows within nine river basins. In the second part, authors summarize and re-analyze the outcome of the nine basins, providing a coherent global picture of water, water productivity and development. They assess the impacts of variations of these attributes on development and approaches for poverty Table of ContentsAcknowledgements. Preface Asit K. Biswas Part 1: The Basin Focal Projects 1.

Taylor & Francis The Transformation of Childrens Services
Book SynopsisCan we imagine different ways of working together to secure better outcomes for children and families? What are the complex issues that underlie the apparently simple call for âjoined-upâ services?Childrenâs services in many countries around the world are being transformed as part of the call for âjoined-up working for joined-up solutionsâ. Social, health and educational policy discourses are driven by the idea that âeffectiveâ inter/professional, interagency collaboration is crucial in determining whether service delivery to children and families will succeed or fail. However, the rapid turn from previous inter/professional practices of liaison, consultancy, cooperation and collaboration to more radical and wholescale service integration and sector transformation has not been accompanied either by a well considered research agenda of hard questions nor close scrutiny of its effects and consequences.The book asks a series of searching and challenging questions: Table of ContentsPart One. Introduction 1. Introducing the complexities of inter/professional working Joan Forbes and Cate Watson Part Two. Policy, theory, discourse: the complexities of collaborative working 2. Complexity, identity, failure: contemporary challenges to working together Andrew Cooper 3. Partnerships: the politics of agendas and policy implementation Andrew Eccles 4. Transprofessional social capital in children’s services: dis/connects in policy and practice Joan Forbes 5. For whom the bell tolls: education, care and the possibility of professional practice in uncertain times Ian Stronach and John Clarke Part Three.
