Sobre IBD

The book examines the work of celebrity advocacy and lobbying in international poverty, inequality and development.  Its purpose is to understand the alliances between celebrity and these good causes, how they function, their history, consequences, wider contexts and implications. It argues that we cannot understand the effects of celebrity advocacy or the growth of the celebrity-and-development industry without asking to whom it appeals and how it works.

  • Fortress Conservation
    Dan Brockington
    Many conservationists insist that conservation that ignores local costs cannot be sustained. For if conservation is greeted with hostility locally then guards and patrols will simply not prevail against determined, and more numerous, rural opponents. This is welcome thinking. It is vital to recognise the problems that conservation policies can pose, and it makes sense strategic...
