La cooperazione allo sviluppo è tradizionalmente uno degli strumenti principali di cui la comunità internazionale dispone nella lotta contro la povertà a livello globale. Ma, in un mondo caratterizzato da tensioni e problemi che sempre più assumono dimensioni globali e in cui tutti gli elementi appaiono interconnessi, quali sono le condizioni della sua efficacia? Ma soprattutto da quali spinte è attraversata e con che esiti? Qual è l’effetto della crescente importanza degli attori privati e della logica di mercato di cui sono portatori?
Development cooperation has traditionally been one of the main tools available to the international community in the fight against poverty at the global level. But, in a world characterized by tensions and problems that are increasingly global in scope and in which all elements appear interconnected, what are the conditions for its effectiveness? Above all, what are the forces that are driving it and what are the outcomes? What is the effect of the growing importance of private players and the market logic they carry?

Measuring development The International debate on the objectives of development, and on the ways it they needs to be measured and appreciated has seen remarkable progresses during the last years. GDP has been for long the most accepted synthetic indicator of the advancement of the human societies, and the effort of replacing it with something different and more comprehensive has kept busy for years scholars and development practitioners. In 1993, the UNDP first published its Human Development Index, thus opening an important space in the international debate, that was further deepened with the different thematic summit of the nineties and an increased awareness about the biophysical limits of the earth. This reflection found one of its peaks with the Millennium Declaration, on which the Millennium Development Goals were then founded. This renewed understanding of change in human societies represents a real advancement; yet, the framework on which MDGs are based and the MDGs themselv...

La" gouvernance" est devenue un mot clé de la réflexion sur les sociétés. Cet ouvrage s' inscrit au sein des débats autour de ce concept, avec l'intention de contribuer à en préciser le sens, tout en illustrant les difficultés liées à son utilisation dans le domaine des relations internationales et du développement. Il représente l'aboutissement d'un débat et de patients travaux d'écriture à l'institut universitaire d'études du développement (IUED). Au-delà de ses utilisations comme outil idéologique ou des effets de mode, le concept apparaît ...
