Eco-Social Transformation and Community-Based Economy, Paperback / softback Book

Eco-Social Transformation and Community-Based Economy Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Advances in Social Work series

Paperback / softback

Description

Worldwide societal problems such as mass unemployment, growing social disparities, public and private poverty, social exclusion, environmental destruction and the evidence of climate change are increasing and becoming ever more visible.

They require urgent and sustainable long-term solutions. Eco-Social Transformation and Community-Based Economy provides a transdisciplinary conception of community based socially productive approaches to eco-social transformation and sustainability.

It introduces interdisciplinary discourses, basic theoretical concepts, participatory and community-based research, development strategies and practical prospects and considers them in the context of both eco-social transformation and eco-social work, especially with disadvantaged groups.

With case studies that demonstrate the creative power of local embeddedness, diversity and cooperation, this book presents integrative local approaches as convincing examples of possible ways forward.

It will be of interest to all scholars, students and activists working in community development, social development, social work and human geography.
