“…This is in stark contrast to an approach to co-production (25) that addresses context-specific pro-poor concerns and priorities. (26) Scholarly research has explored the distributional contention of sanitation in developing cities, highlighting the importance of colonial legacies and the competing interests of middle classes and urban poor, (27) while unpacking the vested interests in the debate on private sector participation. (28) Scholars further point to the pitfalls of apolitical development approaches, (29) yet others describe the ability of communitydriven initiatives to sustain success.…”

Citywide inclusive sanitation (CWIS) is becoming the dominant paradigm for achieving safe sanitation for all by 2030. Its technical benefits have been explored, but the bargaining over financial and organizational changes CWIS entails have not yet been adequately addressed. Our case study explains the stalled rollout of CWIS in Dhaka, Bangladesh. We analyse policy pathways over the past 30 years through a combined territorial political economy and power perspective to understand their effects on equality. We highlight how donors link the introduction of CWIS to the organization of sanitation through a market; how the utility uses CWIS as an opportunity to avoid costly responsibilities in non-sewered sanitation; and how service co-production through community-based solutions is neglected. CWIS has successfully overcome the dogmatic technological focus in the sanitation system, but for citywide sanitation to be scaled inclusively, the dogmatic focus in the organization and financing of the sanitation sector must also be overcome.

Which Psychotherapies? Which Politics? An Equalising Perspective

This article discusses Schmid's lead article, and takes issue with it on a number of points: (1) that the psychotherapy Schmid refers to is too specific; (2) that the politics he refers to is not specific enough, or explicitly progressive or equalising; (3) that the person-centred approach is not more "political" than other approaches or modalities; and (4) that, if there is to be a dialogue between approaches or modalities, then there needs to be more emphasis on the common ground between them.

Constructing feminist counselling: ‘equality’ as a discursive resource in counsellors' talk

Feminist counselling has an uneasy relationship with mainstream counselling approaches. Feminist counselling/therapy is diverse both in theory and in the practice of those who refer to themselves as feminist counsellors, which means that many counsellors outside the feminist tradition are unclear about what it entails. There are also tensions between the discourses of feminism and of therapy (Maracek and Kravetz, 1998). This makes for confusion in the wider counselling population about the nature and validity of feminist counselling. In this study I asked counsellors (not selected on the basis of feminist identifi cation) about their understanding of feminist counselling. They attached four main meanings to feminist counselling: exclusivity, imposing a viewpoint, broader perspectives and a commitment to equality. In exploring the validity of feminist counselling the participants drew on competing meanings of equality, namely relational equality and external equality. This contrasts with much feminist counselling writing, which claims these as complementary.
