GENDER AND DECENTRALIZATION
Author: Simi Afonja & Monica Alagbile
Publisher: ChudacePublishing
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
GENDER & DECENTRALISATION Gender and Decentralization in Nigeria is a product of two years’ research sponsored by the Gender Unit of the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), Canada, as part of its Gender and Decentralization Program for sub-Saharan Africa. The overall objective of the program was to document and analyze specific state decentralization reforms that have worked to promote women’s rights, and/or reforms that have created barriers to the protection and realization of these rights. At the core of the Nigerian project were women’s representation and political effectiveness in local administration. The issues transcended the usual structural analysis of the political, administrative and fiscal changes associated with decentralization and a breakdown by gender. Given the centrality of equity and accountability issues in current good governance debates, a feminist perspective on voice and action was inserted into the traditional public administration perspective. Going beyond numbers, description of gender inequitable electioneering processes, poor accountability of the state, of political parties and the women’s constituency, the book also focusses on feminist political activism at the grassroots level. The authors also document the potential impact of re-politicizing civil society, and restructuring of gender ideologies to achieve self determination and increase women representation and political effectiveness.

Diversity Management:
Author: Dennis Arekpita Ogirri Ph.D. MURP
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1796051799
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 323
Book Description
In this book, this author utilizes various concepts, theories, analytical methods, techniques, and practical knowledge and expertise propounded or espoused by scholars and experts with differing worldviews that tend to facilitate the understanding of diversity and diversity management in the ‘global village.’ Some of the perspectives are based on philosophical, ideological, and cultural orientations of scholars, statesmen, and experts from the various geopolitical regions of the world. Some of the discussion may evoke some controversial thought processes that are considered necessary for healthy debate on the issues of diversity and diversity management from interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, and trans-disciplinary perspectives. However, there is more emphasis on global and interdisciplinary perspectives in the discussion of diversity and diversity management in this book. The purpose of this book is to refocus attention on the issues of diversity and diversity management but from global and interdisciplinary perspectives. The book contributes to the continuing discourse on diversity and diversity management by presenting some conventional and less controversial theories and models, as well as some traditionally controversial ones for managing diversity in the workplace in particular, and in society in general. Whereas much has been written in the past about the debate over which strategies are best for managing diversity, new study dimensions in the era of globalization of business, economic, political, and socio-cultural relations now require the revisiting of the issues of diversity and diversity management from global and interdisciplinary perspectives. Existing published research on diversity management does not focus on both the global and interdisciplinary perspectives.
