    Cette auteure enquête sur des questions critiques de la gouvernance mondiale contemporaine, en particulier face au changement climatique et à l'échec des modèles traditionnels. Son travail se concentre sur le Sud mondial, recherchant de nouvelles approches pour la gauche démocratique et la pensée sociale-démocrate afin de mieux comprendre les luttes actuelles. L'auteure s'appuie sur de vastes recherches sur le terrain et des cadres théoriques, tels que le "double mouvement" de Karl Polanyi, pour analyser les dynamiques mondiales. Elle explore actuellement également le thème du gouvernement personnel et sa relation avec la pauvreté de masse.

      It is a truism that many African countries face a three-pronged tribulation--political tyranny; failed capitalist development; and violent domestic conflict. The relationship between effective democratic institutions, successful development and civil peace is less clear. This book analyzes the experience with democratization of a carefully selected sample of countries: Ghana, Mali, and Niger in West Africa; Zambia, Tanzania, and Madagascar in East Africa; and Sudan.

      Focusing on social-democratic regimes in the developing world, the book examines how these nations reconcile global market growth with the expansion of rights. Through a comparative analysis of Kerala, Costa Rica, Mauritius, and Chile since 1990, the authors reveal that significant social progress is possible despite a global economic system favoring industrialized countries. They argue that pragmatic social-democratic movements have fostered conditions for success, enabling these countries to maintain or improve social achievements even amid the rise of neoliberalism.
