This book collates case studies of national and subnational efforts to alleviate inequality and implement development and security policy more effectively, collaboratively, and multidimensionally.

While inequality is a fundamental developmental challenge and global phenomenon, responsibility largely falls to the state to address it. This book seeks to provide a specific framework to analyse these efforts at the national and sub-national efforts. It does so through the United Nations’ concept of Human Security, whose five core principles provide a good means of addressing inequality’s various facets. Each chapter opens by highlighting the specific aspect of human security that is being addressed. Specific issues covered in the volume include local economic development, maritime economies, fishing communities, and governance and public administration.

This book will be of keen interest to scholars of development studies, inequality (especially social inequality), and Area Studies.
