This timely book tackles the critical and controversial issue of how people are labelled and categorized, and how their problems are framed and dealt with by a variety of actors, including development policy makers, practitioners and researchers. Importantly, one of the book's principal objectives is to suggest how policy makers and professionals can tackle negative forms of labelling and encourage processes of 'counter-labelling', to enhance poverty reduction and human rights, and to tackle issues of race relations and global security.
