ABSTRACT The objective of this article is to develop the concept of malevolent inclusion, being harmed by economic growth, and to provide it with empirical import drawing on results of a recent volume on immiserizing growth, or instances where growth does not benefit the poor. To do so, the author draws heavily on contributions to a philosophical debate about doing and allowing harm. Malevolent inclusion constitutes a refinement of the notion of relational poverty and a riposte to the idea of failed inclusion, being bypassed by growth. It is argued that malevolent inclusion has value as an analytical category and explanatory lens in the context of immiserizing growth.

ABSTRACT In development studies, law is typically seen as a passive and neutral instrument through which development policy is effected. Using mid-1990s market-led agrarian reform in Bolivia as an example, this article reveals how certain logics internal to law have characterised an approach to development policy that reframes social concerns and political subjectivities and interaction in a way that advances neoliberal economic restructuring while curtailing opposition. This included the emergence of a depoliticised, dehistoricised, technocratised approach to agrarian reform that reconstituted peasants and Indigenous peoples as market actors formally equal to landowners, while limiting their opportunities for dissent and resistance.

ABSTRACT This paper develops a new mechanism by which agricultural productivity growth can augment the share of manufacturing employment. Agricultural productivity growth can, through its impact on relative price, result in depreciation in the real effective exchange rate. This in turn improves the competitiveness of tradable sector production, in particular manufacturing. Ethiopia is used as a case study to illustrate these ideas. Ethiopia is chosen because it has followed an agriculturally led economic development since the 1990s. However, Ethiopia’s experience also illustrates that a supportive macroeconomic environment is necessary for the mechanism discussed in this paper to operate effectively.

ABSTRACT Experiential learning is a priority for Canadian universities, with many broadening international experiential learning options. But opportunities are not always inclusive. Low-income, visible minority groups and students with disabilities are less likely to take up travel-based experiential learning. At the same time, students are cognizant of the carbon footprints associated with aviation travel and are critical of traditional sending models. In this paper, we explore e-volunteering as model that might remedy some of these challenges. We draw from student perspectives (n = 52) and key informant interviews (n = 10) to shed light on the potential of e-volunteering as an international experiential learning option.

ABSTRACT The developmental state paradigm (DSP) has traversed global south contexts from Latin America to Asia with a revival in African contexts. However, there is limited understanding of how international political economy (IPE) dynamics influence the analysis offered by the DSP. This article addresses this gap by introducing an IPE-enhanced DSP that centres interactions between the state and international capital in the analysis of industrialisation in the Ethiopian leather subsector and the role of Chinese investment. Its key finding is that these complex interactions influence and disrupt the classical roles of domestic private capital and domestic industrial demand in socio-economic transformation.

RÉSUMÉ Cet article analyse les logiques de collaborations entre acteurs et la qualité d’un partenariat dans le cadre d’un projet de développement impliquant les secteurs public, privé et de la société civile, dans un pays du Nord et un pays du Sud. Les influences de différents acteurs sur le partenariat sont examinées de même que certaines difficultés associées aux modes de fonctionnement. Les analyses font entre autres ressortir l’importance de la co-construction dès le départ des projets de recherche avec les partenaires du Sud, du renforcement de la fonction de coordination entre les acteurs et leurs activités, ainsi que de la poursuite du renforcement des capacités des acteurs du Sud, pour la réussite des projets et leur mise à l’échelle.

ABSTRACT Despite the rich potential benefits to be had from collaborations amongst practitioners and academic communities in the Canadian global development field, there is a general sense that such exchanges happen much less frequently than they could. The Next Generation programme, which underpins this special issue, presented an opportunity to address knowledge gaps in the current ecosystem of academic-civil society organization (CSO) collaborations, producing new research presented in this issue. Between 2016 and 2019, the NextGen Program sought to test and foster different ways and models of facilitating cross-sectoral collaboration between academics and CSOs in Canada. This introduction takes a reflexive approach, including with respect to the Program's partnership between the Canadian Association for the Study of International Development (CASID) and Cooperation Canada (formerly known as the Canadian Council for International Cooperation (CCIC)), to present some key lessons and findings from cross-sectoral collaborations in the global development sector. The article then draws on the experiences of a wide range of collaborative models to draw some conclusions about how to nurture a conducive knowledge partnership ecosystem looking forward.
