Book Description
Africa is experiencing dramatic processes of social change, with evident consequences for health. This collection of papers examines the impacts of modern developments on health in Tanzania with a view to establishing patterns at a continental level. The contributors consider how social change is impacting on young people's health, HIV/AIDS and mental health. It further considers the implications of poverty and social inequalities for health, concluding that the poorest suffer the adverse health effects of social change disproportionately; and that the effects of globalisation, if unchecked left, herald severe consequences for the health of poor countries.

Languages : ja
Pages : 554
Book Description
フィールドワークで得た市民の声と自然・文化の多角的分析を基にタンザニアの内発的発展のあり方を探る。 ※この電子書籍は固定レイアウト型で配信されております。固定レイアウト型は文字だけを拡大することや、文字列のハイライト、検索、辞書の参照、引用などの機能が使用できません。 What is the role of culture in endogenous development? Analysis of Tanzania through theory, history, data,and field research answers this question. Theoretical analysis indicated neither Ujamaa nor recent development policies facilitated endogenous development, but rather development based on culture should be emphasized. Historically, culture was created on ecological systems, structured by social processes, and selected by diverse agencies. Data analysis indicated that endogenous participation should be considered as a prerequisite for social development. People's perspectives in southeast Tanzania illustrate that diverse agencies promote endogenous development. Empowerment and dialogue of agencies, in addition to structural change are proposed as factors enabling endogenous development.
