What is Empowerment in Practice: From Analysis to Implementation (Directions in Development) about?

1 online resource (390 pages) ""This document offers an excellent explanation of the concept of empowerment and develops a very useful framework for disentangling and clarifying the concept. It is both practical and well justified on the basis of the literature. The approach and survey instruments developed to measure empowerment are innovative and very useful. Developing an approach to empirically measure empowerment, and to track empowerment indicators over time in a way that is operationally feasible and consistent with World Bank standards is certainly an outstanding achievement.""Reginer Birner, Senior Research Fellow Print version record Preface; Acknowledgment; About the Authors; Acronyms and Abbreviations; 1 Introduction; PART ONE: UNDERSTANDING AND APPLYING THE CONCEPT OF EMPOWERMENT; 2 Empowerment: An Analytic Framework; Framework Overview; Agency; Opportunity Structure; Interaction between Agency and Opportunity Structure: Explaining Degrees of Empowerment; Where Empowerment Takes Place: Domains and Levels; Domains; Levels; The Framework Summarized; Empowerment and Development Outcomes; Understanding Empowerment: Summary; 3 Methodological Issues in Measuring Empowerment;
