Security and development in Southern Africa
The volume offers an account of uneven globalization and its implications for human insecurity (Part 1) and regional development (Part 2) in Southern Africa. Poku details the implications of uneven globalization for human insecurity on the African continent more generally and Southern Africa, specifically. Swatuk/Vale explore the human security challenges facing Southern African states at the dawn of the new millennium. Leysens/Thompson provide an institutional dimension to the debate by focusing on the human security challenges facing the SADC and its responses. Poku, again, explores the relationship between poverty and HIV prevalence and Matlosa analyses the relationship between global transfigurations and domestic stability in the case of Lesotho. In the second part of the book, Söderbaum, McLean and Schoeman explore the notion of regionalism as a means of enhancing security. (DÜI-Sbd)
