The capability approach has developed significantly since Amartya Sen was awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1998. It is now recognised as being highly beneficial in the analysis of poverty and inequality, but also in the redefinition of policies aimed at improving the well-being of individuals.The approach has been applied within numerous sectors, from health and education to sustainable development, but beyond the obvious interest that it represents for the classical economics tradition, it has also encountered certain limitations. While acknowledging the undeniable progress that the approach has made in renewing the thinking on the development and well-being of a population, this book takes a critical stance. It focuses particularly on the approach’s inadequacy vis-à-vis the continental phenomenological tradition and draws conclusions about the economic analysis of development. In a more specific sense, it highlights the fact that the approach is too bound by standard economic logic, which has prevented it from taking account of a key ‘person’ dimension — namely, the ability of an individual to assume responsibility. As a result, this book advocates the notion that if the approach is used carelessly in relation to development policies, it can cause a number of pernicious effects, some of which may lead to disastrous consequences.Due to its multidisciplinary nature, this book will be of interest to those working in the fields of economics, philosophy, development studies and sociology.

Comment préserver les ressources naturelles ?

La gestion participative des ressources naturelles a été imposée aux pays en développement par les bailleurs de fonds internationaux dans les années 1990. Cette nouvelle modalité de gestion des ressources se construit en théorie avec l’appui des populations locales pour leur propre bénéfice. Dans la réalité, elle tend plutôt à s’imposer à elles. Elle les détourne de l’accès à des ressources sanctuarisées. Elle favorise globalement la captation de rente par l’État et certaines ONG de conservation. Les projets de gestion participative des ressources naturelles se révèlent alors souvent inadaptés pour les populations. Ils renforcent les inégalités sociales au niveau local et ne parviennent pas à réduire de manière substantielle la dégradation des ressources naturelles. Un tel constat plaide donc pour une reconfiguration de cette gestion sur la base d’une véritable démocratie participative et pour le développement de processus longs permettant un véritable apprentissage collectif.

This edited volume examines child exploitation in the Global South. It introduces several case studies and interviews articulated around two features: exploitation within the family and exploitation in relation to social contexts. The research shows that both of the features are linked and, generally, they are not separate. It makes several important arguments which challenge the most common view on how children are perceived and exploited in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East. Additionally, it explores the social representation of exploited children as well as their general well-being.
