The theory of ?equalitarianism? is developed as an alternative to the reductionist approach that has dominated post-colonial debates about the classical jus ad bellum requirements to empower women in development spaces. However, the classical approach narrows the debate down to ?women issues,? rather than the ?whole-of-society.? As a consequence of this reductionism, women continue to be devalued in the mining sector, characterized by poverty traps, power struggles, and a lack of capacity to engage in large-scale mining (LSM) activities. This book advances principles for a holistic approach, and spells out the implications for women across the mining value chain. Drawing on moral scholarship, the book poses that for women to gain access to strategic spaces in the mining sector, the drive for empowerment must be embedded within ?whole-of-society? principles. This book is of interest to scholars researching gender policy, public policy, political philosophy, conflictology, and human geography. It also offers practitioners a guide for evaluating their policy work on mainstreaming gender in the mining sector, presenting options for financing, forging partnership and planning for an inclusive economic development in Africa, and beyond. . 410 0$aSocial Sciences Series 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aIdentity politics 606 $aDiversity in the workplace 606 $aMining engineering 606 $aSex 606 $aDevelopment Studies 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aPolitics and Gender 606 $aDiversity Management and Women in Business 606 $aMining and Exploration 606 $aGender Studies 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aIdentity politics. 615 0$aDiversity in the workplace. 615 0$aMining engineering. 615 0$aSex. 615 14$aDevelopment Studies. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aPolitics and Gender. 615 24$aDiversity Management and Women in Business. 615 24$aMining and Exploration. 615 24$aGender Studies. 676 $a338.2 700 $aOnditi$b Francis$01381752 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910743343203321 996 $aGender inequalities in Africa's mining policies$93559947 997 $aUNINA
