Book Description
Face à la globalisation, les concepts de développement local et de gouvernance territoriale font désormais partie des paradigmes prioritaires du développement. Comment développer une relation de causalité positive entre une mondialisation qui suppose une gouvernance globale et un développement locale qui appelle une gouvernance territoriale ? Comment articuler l'approche de développement local conçue comme une démarche qui se veut collective et endogène, inclusive et participative, axée sur la construction d'un territoire restreint, avec la contribution de ce territoire au mouvement général du développement ? La vision du local peut-elle s'intégrer dans une perception du global sans compromettre la nécessaire dynamique qui doit réguler et rythmer les deux démarches appelées à être complémentaires, tant dans les stratégies que dans les agendas de réalisation? Présenté comme un modèle de développement alternatif, le développement local est devenu une référence et tend à s'imposer dans les discours de politique économique. Il place les acteurs au cœur de la gestion des territoires et nécessite la jonction avec de nouveaux espaces avec la mise en œuvre de nouveaux instruments de dialogue. C'est pour réfléchir et mettre en cohérence toutes les idées qui irriguent les discussions sur le développement local, la Gouvernance territoriale, la globalisation que le GERAD a réuni d'éminents experts dans les domaines du développement territorial, de l'aménagement, de la culture, pour jeter des regards croisés sur les enjeux et perspectives de ces problématiques. Le fruit de ces réflexions prospectives, dont l'essentiel est consigné dans ce livre, nous ouvre de nouvelles pistes et des perspectives qui préfigurent des projets de sociétés bâtis sur un ancrage entre le local et le global.

Book Description
This work aims to present the most recent developments regarding territorial governance, placing particular emphasis on rural and periurban areas. The reader will find information on the processes of development of European regions, as well as on the behaviours and strategies adopted by the different actors who live in these territories and contribute to the latter's livelihood. The first part of the book analyses the structural changes in the modes of production that have affected these territories. The second part addresses the questions of methodology and of the structures of governance of local development in rural areas. The last section makes an assessment of the geographical indications as tools of governance of local agrifood chains. The book was written by economists, geographers, land use planners and specialists of the questions of governance and management of rural and periurban areas.

Book Description
This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the role of local governments around the world in the management of the migration, integration and development nexus. Drawing on case studies from the Global North and South, this comparative work fills a lacuna in the existing literature which has focused largely on migration as addressed by European and North American cities. Further, it widens the current debate by confronting northern experiences with attitudes and strategies observed in sending countries; clearly demonstrating that international mobility has become a global issue for cities at both end of the migration spectrum. This innovative work will provide a valuable resource for students and scholars working in the social sciences, public policy and development; in addition to practitioners and policymakers.

Book Description
Since the mid-1990s, Morocco has sought to present itself as a model of genuine and gradual reform, with decentralisation as a key tenet of this. Here, Sylvia Bergh investigates the dynamics of popular participation and local governance, testing the extent to which the current structure builds local capacity, or whether it is, in fact, a tool for 'soft' state control. She narrates the realities of local administration and civil society to shed critical light on questions of democratic transition in North Africa. Her assessment of decentralisation and participatory development projects in rural Morocco, and the legal and policy frameworks in which they operate, leads to the conclusion that they have generally not yet led to an expansion of a civil society able to build local capacity or enhance bottom-up empowerment. Grounded in an approach of the 'anthropology of policy', this book makes an important contribution to literature on the democratisation, development and governance in North Africa.
