Paul Taylor analyses the effects of the increasing inequalities of income and wealth in recent years, concluding that a wide range of problems for the middle sections of society can be traced to the appearance of a class of the ' ber-rich', the example they set and the demands they make. He takes the view that what has happened is the opposite of the much vaunted 'trickle-down effect'; there is actually a 'trickle-up effect' not only in the distribution of wealth but also in the ownership of property and access to education, medicine and the law. He goes on to look at the government's failure to deal effectively with these problems, putting them in the context of the need to deal with the threat of terrorism and the effects of globalization. The book is highly relevant to the current crisis in the global financial system, especially with regard to its effects in the UK and USA, but it places that crisis in the context of wider developments."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aEconomic development$zGreat Britain 606 $aIncome distribution$zGreat Britain 606 $aPublic welfare$zGreat Britain 606 $aWealth$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aWealth$zGreat Britain 606 $aWelfare economics 606 $aWelfare state$zGreat Britain 606 $2Social services & welfare, criminology 615 0$aEconomic development 615 0$aIncome distribution 615 0$aPublic welfare 615 0$aWealth$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aWealth 615 0$aWelfare economics. 615 0$aWelfare state 700 $aTaylor$b Paul$0350655 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996214903103316 996 $aCareless State$91802449 997 $aUNISA LEADER 04589oam 22006134a 450 001 9910422652703321 005 20240823161319.0 010 $a1-5292-1727-X 024 7 $a10.56687/9781529217278 035 $a(DE-B1597)645576 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781529217278 035 $a(CKB)4100000011528184 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011528184 100 $a20201203d2021 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||#|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCOVID-19 in the global south $eimpacts and responses / edited by Pádraig Carmody, Gerard McCann, Clodagh Colleran and Ciara O'Halloran ; foreword by Ciarn Cannon 210 1$aBristol, UK :$cBristol University Press,$d2021 215 $axxi, 195 pages 225 0 $aRapid response 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $tFrontmatter --$tContents --$tList of Figures and Tables --$tList of Abbreviations --$tNotes on Contributors --$tForeword --$tIntroduction --$tPart I Perspectives on the Pandemic --$t1 COVID- 19 Pandemic Ignorance and the ?Worlds? of Development --$t2 Climate Change and Coronavirus: A Confluence of Crises as Learning Moment --$t3 International Human Rights and Global Welfare in the Midst of the COVID- 19 Pandemic --$t4 Development Education, COVID- 19 and Neoliberalism --$tPart II Social and Economic Impacts --$t5 Prisons in a Pandemic: The Malawi Experience --$t6 The Challenge of COVID- 19 in Informal Urban Settlements and the Need for Co- produced Local Responses --$t7 Policy Milieu for Combatting COVID- 19 and Sustainability of African Economies --$t8 Africa and the Economic Pathologies of the COVID- 19 Pandemic --$t9 Ride- hailing Drivers Left Alone at the Wheel Reflections from South Africa and Kenya --$t10 COVID- 19 in Latin America: Uneven Responses, Uneven Impacts, Shared Challenges --$tPart III Responses --$t11 The ?Shadow Pandemic?

Bringing together a range of experts across various sectors, this important volume explores some of the key issues that have arisen in the Global South with the COVID-19 pandemic. Situating the worldwide health crisis within broader processes of globalisation, the book investigates implications for development and gender, as well as the effects on migration, climate change and economic inequality. Contributors consider how widespread and long-lasting responses to the pandemic should be, while paying particular attention to the accentuated risks faced by vulnerable populations. Providing answers that will be essential to development practitioners and policy makers, the book offers vital insights into how the impact of COVID-19 can be mitigated in some of the most challenging socio-economic contexts worldwide. 606 $aSocial history$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01919811 606 $aEconomic history$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00901974 606 $aCOVID-19 (Disease)$xEconomic aspects$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst02021810 606 $aCOVID-19 (Disease)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01984643 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Developing & Emerging Countries 606 $aCOVID-19 (Disease)$xEconomic aspects$zSouthern Hemisphere 606 $aCOVID-19 (Disease)$zSouthern Hemisphere 607 $aSouthern Hemisphere$2fast 607 $aSouthern Hemisphere$xSocial conditions 607 $aSouthern Hemisphere$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aSocial history. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aCOVID-19 (Disease)$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aCOVID-19 (Disease) 615 0$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Developing & Emerging Countries. 615 0$aCOVID-19 (Disease)$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aCOVID-19 (Disease) 676 $a330.9 701 $aCarmody$b Pa?draig Risteard$01172627 701 $aMcCann$b Gerard$01259122 701 $aColleran$b Clodagh$01259123 701 $aO'Halloran$b Ciara$01259124 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910422652703321 996 $aCOVID-19 in the global south$92917811 997 $aUNINA
