Based on an actual gendered participatory appraisal in Wales, this guide offers a thorough explanation of why looking at the differences in mene(tm)s and womene(tm)s life experiences is an essential part of any participatory work. "What Men and Women Want" guides the user through the stages of a process which is e~genderede(tm) throughout -- in other words, which takes account of the different perspectives of women and men. It provides a range of accessible tools, explains how to analyze and collate qualitative information with a gender perspective, and shows how to move from action to bring about real and lasting changes in the lives of men and women.
This volume examines societal change in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and Russia in a purposeful movement away from the generalized debated associated with 'transition' theory and a simultaneous engagement with the complexities of everyday life throughout the region at the local level.

Und während die Regierung alles auf den Finanzsektor in London setzte, erlebten die ehemals starken Industrieregionen einen steilen Niedergang – fruchtbarer Boden für Rechtspopulisten und Demagogen, die sich eine Rückkehr in die Zeiten des britischen Empire wünschen. Der London-Korresponde...
