Disney and His Worlds
DISNEY AND HIS WORLDS Disney and his Worlds is a thorough overview of what is by now quite a large literature on the Disney organization, in particular the theme parks and their significance for contemporary culture. The author looks at Walt Disney’s life and how his biography has been constructed; the Walt Disney Company in the years after his death; and the writings of various commentators on the Disney theme parks. He raises important issues about the parks: whether they are harbingers of postmodernism; the significance of consumption at the parks; the nature of the parks as tourism; and the representation of past and future. The discussion of theme parks is central but links with the presentation of Walt Disney’s biography and his organization by showing how central economic and business considerations have been in their development, and how the significance of these considerations is typically marginalized in order to place an emphasis on fantasy and magic. In the process, the book questions the assumption that the parks are sites of postmodern sensibility. Disney films, merchandizing and theme parks are one of the defining features of our times and one of the more effective elements in American cultural imperialism. It is impossible to imagine an encyclopedic sociology of contemporary culture that did not devote at least a chapter to Disney and his Worlds. In particular the parks are often employed as examples in areas like cultural studies, the sociology of postmodernism, tourism and leisure studies, while Walt Disney and his organization are important to the area of organization studies. -
The Mdgs and Sauri Millennium Village in Kenya
An Island of Success in a Sea of Failure? The MDGs and Sauri Millennium Village in Kenya Amrik Kalsi MBA: Master of Business Administration MSc: Master of Science in Management and Organisational Development MA: Master of Arts A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2015 The School of Social Science Abstract For a number of decades, foreign aid-supported poverty reduction and development concepts, and policies and programmes developed by development agencies and experts implemented since the 1950s, have produced limited short-term and sometimes contradictory results in Kenya. In response to this problem in 2000, the adoption of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) was in many respects a tremendous achievement, gaining unprecedented international support. The MDGs model has since become the policy of choice to reduce poverty and hunger in developing countries by half between 2000 and 2015, being implemented by the Millennium Village Project (MVP) ‘Big-Push’ model, seemingly designed as a ‘bottom-up’ approach. Poverty reduction and sustainable development are key priorities for the Kenyan government and the Kenya Vision 2030 blueprint project. The MDGs process, enacted as the Millennium Village Project (MVP) in Kenya for poverty reduction, is now at the centre of intense debate within Kenya. It is widely recognised that foreign aid maintained MVP and sustainable development through the UN and local efforts, especially in their present form, have largely failed to address poverty in Kenya. Furthermore, not enough was known about the achievements of the MVP model in real- world situations when the MVP model interventions were applied in the Sauri village. -

Sauri Millennium Village in Reality
Global governance/politics, climate justice & agrarian/social justice: linkages and challenges An international colloquium 4‐5 February 2016 Colloquium Paper No. 38 ‘CASTLE IN THE SKY’: SAURI MILLENNIUM VILLAGE IN REALITY Hellen Kimanthi and Paul Hebinck International Institute of Social Studies (ISS) Kortenaerkade 12, 2518AX The Hague, The Netherlands Organized jointly by: With funding assistance from: Disclaimer: The views expressed here are solely those of the authors in their private capacity and do not in any way represent the views of organizers and funders of the colloquium. February, 2016 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ICAS_Agrarian https://twitter.com/TNInstitute https://twitter.com/peasant_journal Check regular updates via ICAS website: www.iss.nl/icas ‘CASTLE IN THE SKY’: SAURI MILLENNIUM VILLAGE IN REALITY Hellen Kimanthi and Paul Hebinck Abstract The Millennium Villages Projects (MVPs) were implemented across sub-Saharan African countries to catalyse the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and act as a proof that the MDGs are achievable. The MVP implemented interventions to cater for the eight MDGs in efforts to accelerate transformation of communities towards modernisation. This paper critically explores the MVP’s ‘quick win’ strategy to achieve the MDGs with a focus on agricultural interventions, implementation and impacts on the local community in Sauri Millennium Village (SMV) in Kenya. The study builds on previous studies (Van Kessel 1998; Mango, 1999, 2002; Hebinck, 2001; Mango and Hebinck, 2004 and Hebinck, Mango and Kimanthi, 2015) exploring socio-technical and agrarian changes in western Kenya. These studies were done way before the MVP was implemented in Sauri, The longitudinal nature of the data allow us to an indepth ex-ante and ex-post situational analysis of the dynamics generated by MVP. -
