Abstract

The world is a complex and at times mystifying place. Sense and reason struggle for visibility among national terms of reference constructed around an individual nation’s needs, pride and (in some cases) survival. Embedded among these ‘instincts’ lurk the more menacing forces of power, influence and control. It is from such hybrid climates that the globally facing Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the succeeding Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) emerged.
