Ecofeminism and Systems Thinking

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This work combines the epistemologies of cultural eco-feminism and critical systems thinking to explore issues of project management, community development, gender studies, and ecological sustainability, and provide accounts of marginalised stakeholder groups in community development and project management. It shows, through several case studies, that when the principles of feminist-systems thinking are applied in project management, policy, and community development settings, they can influence project outcomes for the better.
