Corporate Capture of Development: Public-Private Partnerships, Women’s Human Rights, and Global Resistance

Editat de Corina Rodríguez Enríquez, Masaya Llavaneras Blanco
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2023
Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) have gained a renewed momentum in recent years, and have come to be viewed by governments and funders alike as a silver bullet for infrastructure development and public service provision. Critiques of the corporate capture of development are well established, yet until now the urgent question of the impacts of PPPs on women's human rights around the world has remained under-explored. This open access book aims to fill the gap, providing new insights from a set of case studies from across the Global South. Bringing an intersectional feminist approach to PPPs, these cases enable analysis that can inform advocacy and activism, whilst challenging dominant narratives and resisting the negative impacts of PPPs on women and historically marginalized communities' human rights. Widely advocating for stronger regulatory frameworks and institutions, and indicating how changes could be implemented, the examples analysed cover a range of sectors including health, energy, and infrastructure from countries including Ethiopia, Peru, India and Fiji.

Recenzii

Against the background of the structural challenges that states face to finance economic and social infrastructure and the provision of social services, DAWN has produced a timely and hugely important contribution that addresses the promotion of public private partnerships from an intersectional feminist perspective. It offers compelling evidence that help us understand how and why PPPs too often negatively affect women's human rights. As a relevant player in the field of women's rights, DAWN is filling a knowledge gap to strengthen the struggle for democratic development and the feminist resistance against global corporate capture.
