Opportunities to engage health system leaders in whole systems approaches to physical activity in England
Background Physical activity plays an important role in maintaining good health and wellbeing, non-communicable disease prevention and can improve healthcare outcomes. Some progress is being made on incorporating physical activity into routine care, but less on engaging health system leaders in the ‘whole systems’ approaches which are increasingly recognised as important for addressing complex public health challenges such as physical inactivity.…

Integrated development, risk management and community-based climate change adaptation in a mountain-plains system in Northern Tanzania
This paper presents a preliminary analysis of work conducted along altitudinal gradients in the mountains and plains of northern Tanzania. We find evidence of a high degree of interdependence among groups of people of different language/cultural groups and socio-economic status interacting along environmental gradients from high to low altitude. We call this “socio-geographical adaptation” to climate change. However, our analysis and discussion a…
Développement intégré, gestion des risques et adaptation communautaire au changement climatique dans un système montagne-plaine au nord de la Tanzanie
Cet article présente une analyse préliminaire d’un travail mené le long des pentes des montagnes et dans les plaines du nord de la Tanzanie. Un fort degré d’interdépendance a pu être mis en évidence parmi des groupes d’individus de langues et de cultures différentes, de statuts socio-économiques variés. Leurs interactions se situent le long de gradients environnementaux allant de l’amont à l’aval. On désignera cela « adaptation socio-géographique…

Empowerment, Marginalization, and "Community-integrated" GIS
The "GIS and Society" literature has raised a number of critical issues concerning the political economy and epistemology of geographical information systems (GIS) and the politics and power relations associated with their use. Recently, attention has focused on the potential for GIS to help empower communities. This paper reviews the GIS and Society debate. Case studies of public participation GIS are reviewed. The GIS-empowerment-marginalizatio…

The Agrarian question and politics in the ‘New’ South Africa
New right and neo‐liberal ‘development’ discourses have heavily impacted on the politics of agrarian restructuring in South Africa. Mechanisms for resolving agrarian contradictions are being discussed and presented as abstract planning decisions to be made by agricultural and rural development experts. This legitimation of ‘neo‐classicism’, if unchallenged, will reproduce and support current neo‐apartheid forms of restructuring. In this article, …

Rural and Regional Restructuring of Apartheid: Ideology, Development Policy and the Competition for Space
If we are serious about socialist reconstruction, we have to pay as much attention to the countryside as we do the industrial centres, and in this respect I am afraid we are not even at the beginning of the beginning. (Rosa Luxemburg 1986: 233)
