Biting the Hand that Feeds You? Exploring Whether (and How) Government Funding Constrains Charities’ Engagement in Public Policy
This article examines relationships between federal government funding and reported spending by charities on what the Canada Revenue Agency defined as “political activities” over the period 2003–2017. Anecdotal evidence suggests that many charities in Canada see dependence on government funding by other charities as a factor that limits policy engagement. Comparative research generally suggests that government funding is positively associated wit…

A Thaw in the Chill? Charities and Public Policy Engagement in Canada
This article examines the effects of changes in 2018–19 to the Income Tax Act and Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) regulations that were ostensibly intended to facilitate public policy engagement by Canadian charities. The article examines a case study of charities in the international development sector through interviews with charity leaders and quantitative analysis of data from the Canada Revenue Agency, Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying, and…
What's love got to do with it?” Bringing love into international development research
This article argues that international development research needs to focus more attention on love, for two reasons. First, to better understand the emotional experiences of poverty, injustice and development, and second, to understand the ways that public policy can shape the capabilities for love. Following analysis of the importance of love for physical and mental health, the article examines areas of public policy in the global North and South…
Navigating the tensions between ethics and effectiveness in development communications and marketing
This paper examines the ways that communications and marketing professionals with international development non-governmental organisations (NGOs) understand and navigate the tensions between ethical and effective communications about global poverty and development. The paper is based on interviews with 16 senior communications officers in Canadian NGOs and with 6 marketing firms that support the non-profit sector. The paper finds that most of the…
Soundtracks of Poverty and Development
Advocacy, charity and struggles for global justice in Canada
This article examines the regulatory, political and financial context for global justice advocacy by Canadian civil society organisations (CSOs). We find that federal regulations have constrained these organisations' capacity for advocacy, and that CSOs themselves restrict their advocacy work beyond regulatory requirements due to risk aversion and funding challenges. Our study draws on tax data and other publicly available information, and on int…
Communicating Cosmopolitanism and Motivating Global Citizenship
This article analyses strategies of communication to motivate ordinary individuals to act in accord with cosmopolitan ethics. The central argument of the article is that research on cosmopolitan motivation needs to engage much more actively with research in psychology and communications, which provide significant insights on the effectiveness of strategies that moral philosophers have proposed to motivate cosmopolitan action. The article critical…

Can poverty be funny? The serious use of humour as a strategy of public engagement for global justice
This article examines the use of humour as a strategy to promote increased public engagement in the countries of the global North with issues of global justice. The central argument of the article is that humour can be both an ethical and an effective way of attracting and sustaining public engagement in struggles for global justice. There are risks and limits to the use of humour to represent issues of poverty and injustice but, given low levels…
New Institutions of Indigenous Self-Governance in Bolivia
This article analyzes the novel legal and policy framework for indigenous autonomy in Bolivia since the approval of the 2009 Constitution, with a focus on the specific contents of the country’s first five approved statutes of indigenous autonomy. The statutes not only appear to internalize Bolivia’s restrictive framework for indigenous autonomy, but also reveal internal tensions between liberal principles and the supposed norms of indigenous self…

Indigenous Autonomy and the Contradictions of Plurinationalism in Bolivia
The government of Bolivia led by President Evo Morales and the Movement Toward Socialism (MAS) party claims to be constructing a new postliberal or plurinational state. However, this alleged experiment in plurinationalism conflicts with two central elements of government and MAS party strategy: the expansion of the economic development model based on the extraction of non-renewable natural resources, and the MAS's efforts to control political spa…

Bolivia's Contentious Politics of 'Normas y Procedimientos Propios
Bolivia’s Constitution recognizes the right of indigenous peoples to govern themselves in accordance with their own ‘norms and procedures.’ This article examines the conflicts over the interpretation of local history, culture, and identity that have emerged within indigenous municipalities engaged in the autonomy process as they seek to define their ‘norms and procedures’ and to translate them into the design of institutions of self-governance. T…
Why did mainstream economics miss the crisis? The role of epistemological and methodological blinkers
Purpose In this paper the aim is to show how the translation of a logical positivist epistemology into neoclassical economics has had profound methodological consequences which over‐determine an inability to predict cusps and their associated crises. Design/methodology/approach Based on a review of epistemological and methodological literature, it is argued that the financial crises of the past 20 years ought to initiate a questioning of the epis…

Deliberation or symbolic violence? The governance of community forestry in Nepal
Hacía la Alcaldía
Struggles for the control of rural municipal governments have become an important new element of indigenous and peasant political activism throughout the Andean region. An analysis based on field research in rural Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru conducted between 1999 and 2006 reveals that the control of rural municipal power is an important mechanism for enhancing indigenous and peasant political autonomy, improving rural infrastructure and social se…
Development is a bag of cement
Reflecting on observations of participatory budget schemes in the Andean region of South America, this article argues that the statements and behaviour of those who take part in participatory budget meetings should be understood as a form of public performance which often differs significantly from the ‘backstage discourses’ of participants once they are no longer performing in public. The widespread prioritisation of small-scale infrastructure p…

Development Made Sexy
This article examines the recent trend among Northern development organisations to represent development as sexy in awareness and fundraising campaigns. The article argues that the ways in which development organisations represent the global South and development work play an important role in the construction of social power relations between people in the global North and the global South. The representation of development as sexy is compared a…

Municipal Democratisation in Rural Latin America
As municipal governments in Latin America acquire greater responsibility for public goods and services and the promotion of economic and social development, and play a greater role in local citizenship, questions about the quality of municipal democracy also need to be taken much more seriously. This article proposes a 'relative power approach' that examines the distribution of social power at the microregional level and its impact on municipal g…

The World Bank and the New Institutional Economics
In the course of the 1990s, the policy prescriptions of the World Bank for developing countries have shifted from the neoliberal emphasis on a minimal state, symbolized by the Washington Consensus, to a perspective that emphasizes a much more active and efficient state. Through the 1980s and early 1990s, the World Bank encouraged trade and investment liberalization, domestic market deregulation, fiscal discipline, and a reduction in both the size…
