'Think globally, act locally' is a phrase often used to describe the importance of popular activism and an awareness of the issues surrounding globalisation and development. This book is an accessible and comprehensive introduction to key concepts in development, concepts that are central to understanding the causes of poverty, inequality and injustice in the global North and South. Leading authors from academia and the non-governmental development sector write with insight and clarity on the issues that are essential to any introduction to development issues. The third edition of the book contains new chapters on Human Security, Migration, China and the Arab Spring that reflect the realities of development in a changing world of popular activism, global recession and a renewed questioning of neoliberalism. Existing chapters have been revised and completely updated to debate contemporary currents in development policy and practice.
