Learning for Livelihoods in the Global South Theoretical and Methodological Lenses on Skills and the Informal Sector
レスリー?パウエル、アダム?クーパー、サイモン?マグラスと私が共に编纂した本书では、学习理论や教育実践、政策立案、研究アプローチには「形式性バイアス」があると主张します。すなわち、赁金労働や政府规制下のフォーマルな経済部门を前提とした学习を主な焦点としているということです。しかし、现実には世界の労働者の大多数、特にグローバル?サウスの人びとはインフォーマル部门に生计を依存しています。
本书の各章は、インフォーマル部门の生计のための学びを新たに理论化?概念化する试みであり、既存の理论?政策?研究分野への批判的検讨も行います。教育や技能を単なる利益追求や生产性向上の手段として捉えるのではなく、新自由主义的?人的资本理论に基づく教育の枠组みを超えた新しい视点を提示しています。
事例研究はインド、南アフリカ、西アフリカ、コロンビアにわたり、教育がいかに人びとをエンパワーし、生计を强化し、主体性?技能?自己成长?発言能力を拡大し得るかに焦点を当てています。

‘Learning for informal sector livelihoods is highly relevant worldwide; yet, we know little about the topic from a scientific perspective. This book makes major contributions to closing this research gap. It is a “must read” for scholars and practitioners focused on skill acquisition in the Global South.’
