Book Synopsis Transnational Private Governance Between the Logics of Empowerment and Control by :
Download or read book Transnational Private Governance Between the Logics of Empowerment and Control written by . This book was released on . Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is beyond the scope of this article to trace the origins of the logics.6 The analysis that follows instead starts from the empirical observation that private governance has evolved to face pressure to accommodate both the logics of control and empowerment. [...] Distributional implications The initial choice of programs to focus on the logic of control has direct implications for the distribution of power, wealth, and regulatory capability; a program's efforts to accommodate the logic of empowerment affect these distributional implications as well (Table 1). [...] The extension of the logic of control to include the logic of empowerment can, thus, affect wealth distribution when the inclusion of more marginalized producers and firms leads to larger market access, the potential availability of price premiums, and learning processes. [...] Pattberg (2006) argues along the same lines that the network structure of the FSC, with its international secretariat, regional offices, and national working groups, leads to knowledge diffusion and an empow- erment of Southern stakeholders as the latter's voice is heard through the national and local adaptation of the international principles and criteria. [...] "Fair Trade" connotes the Fair Trade movement, which is based on a definition of fair trade delineated in 2001 by the Fairtrade Labeling Organizations International (FLO), the International Fair Trade Association (now the World Fair Trade Organization, WFTO), the Network of European Worldshops, and the European Fair Trade Association (Fair Trade Advocacy Office s.d.), and the Charter of Fair Trade.

Book Synopsis Logics of Legitimacy by : Margaret Stout
Download or read book Logics of Legitimacy written by Margaret Stout. This book was released on 2012-08-23. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discipline of public administration draws predominantly from political and organizational theory, but also from other social and behavioral sciences, philosophy, and even theology. This diversity results in conflicting prescriptions for the "proper" administrative role. So, how are those new to public administration to know which ideas are "legitimate"? Rather than accepting conventional arguments for administrative legitimacy through delegated constitutional authority or expertise, Logics of Legitimacy: Three Traditions of Public Administration Praxis does not assume that any one approach to professionalism is accepted by all scholars, practitioners, citizens, or elected representatives. Instead, it offers a framework for public administration theory and practice that fully includes the citizen as a political actor alongside elected representatives and administrators. This framework: Considers both direct and representative forms of democracy Examines concepts from both political and organizational theory, addressing many of the key questions in public administration Examines past and present approaches to administration Presents a conceptual lens for understanding public administration theory and explaining different administrative roles and practices The framework for public administration theory and practice is presented in three traditions of main prescriptions for practice: Constitutional (the bureaucrat), Discretionary (the entrepreneur), and Collaborative (the steward). This book is appropriate for use in graduate-level courses that explore the philosophical, historical, and intellectual foundations of public administration. Upon qualified course adoption, instructors will gain access to a course outline and corresponding lecture slides.

Book Synopsis The Logics of Gender Justice by : Mala Htun
Download or read book The Logics of Gender Justice written by Mala Htun. This book was released on 2018-03-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When and why do governments promote women's rights? Through comparative analysis of state action in seventy countries from 1975 to 2005, this book shows how different women's rights issues involve different histories, trigger different conflicts, and activate different sets of protagonists. Change on violence against women and workplace equality involves a logic of status politics: feminist movements leverage international norms to contest women's subordination. Family law, abortion, and contraception, which challenge the historical claim of religious groups to regulate kinship and reproduction, conform to a logic of doctrinal politics, which turns on relations between religious groups and the state. Publicly-paid parental leave and child care follow a logic of class politics, in which the strength of Left parties and overall economic conditions are more salient. The book reveals the multiple and complex pathways to gender justice, illuminating the opportunities and obstacles to social change for policymakers, advocates, and others seeking to advance women's rights.
