Virtue, Opportunity and Fortune: Insights for Business Leaders in Machiavelli’s The Prince
Collaborative online international learning, social innovation and global health: Cosmopolitical Covid lessons as global citizenship education
While COVID-19 has underlined many global interdependencies , it has also made clear the ways in which these globalised connections are structured by profound inequalities. Teaching in this context has been deeply challenging for many educators around the world. For related reasons, though, the pandemic has also created new provocations for global citizenship education (GCE) attuned specifically to the problems of health vulnerability and sub-cit…

Management Consultancy Firms and Hythloday’s Island: Utopian Visions of the Most Desired of Workplaces
Many business graduates regard management consultancy firms as a desirable, even utopian, career destination. Hythloday’s description of the island of Utopia identifies several characteristics that resonate with aspects of the management consulting industry. They include its separation from the rest of humanity, the Utopians’ attitude to acquiring knowledge, their commitment to their way of life, their attitude to work, the governance structure o…
Policy and Practice Spatial imaginaries: Tyrannies or transformations?
This Policy and Practice (P&P) originated from the round table discussion held in the UK and Ireland Planning Research Conference at Queens University Belfast from 11 to 13 September 2017. Its aim is to explore the representational and performative role of spatial imaginaries in both describing identities and ascribing them to places and thus influencing spatial relations and planning practices. The P&P consists of four contributions which reflec…

The World Food Council: The Rise and Fall of a United Nations Body
At the recommendation of the 1974 World Food Conference, the UN World Food Council (WFC) was established by the UN General Assembly at the ministerial or plenipotentiary level following the worst world food crisis in modern history at the beginning of the 1970s. The WFC was charged with overseeing the follow-up of the conference's resolutions and coordinating the work of the concerned UN agencies relating to food production, nutrition, food secur…
Bread and Stones: Leadership and the Struggle to Reform the United Nations World Food Programme
The Life and Work of Professor Sir Hans Singer: An Appreciation
Hans Singer, who died on 26 February 2006 at the age of 95, was one of the most highly respected and internationally recognized development economists. He was one of that small band of pioneers who stimulated so many ideas that engaged the attention of the world community over much of the last century. As an economic activist, few people have been such indefatigable thinkers about the problems of developing countries and persistent instigators of…
Turning Point in the Evolution of Soft Financing: The United Nations and the World Bank
Half a century age, a drawn-out and divisive debate that lasted almost a decade (1949–59) took place at the United Nations (UN) over a proposal to set up a Special United Nations Fund for Economic Development (SUNFED) to provide soft financing for the development of the UN and the World Bank, as it came to be known, in the economic development of developing countries. Had the proposal been approved, it would have given the UN decisive leadership.…
Food Aid in Sub-Saharan Africa: Policy Lessons for the Future
At the beginning of the 21st century, the countries of sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) face severe economic, social and political problems. At the centre of many of these problems is widespread food insecurity. The prospects are that more food aid or aid for food will be required if food security is to be achieved in the short term. Yet these forms of assistance continue to be provided in unreliable, disparate and often conflictive ways. The first part …
The Opportunity and the Challenge: Hans Singer's Contribution to the International Debate on Food Aid
For over fourty years, Hans Singer has played a major role in the international debate on food aid. His views on food aid as providing an opportunity, as well as challenge to achieving food security for the neediest people in the poorest countries have provided a balanced assessment and reasoned account when much of the criticism of food aid has been based on prejudice, polemical argument and anecdotal evidence. What motivated his interest in foo…
