Description:

is development Who is the developed person Participants study the creation of postcolonial nations and the emergence of academic study and institutional governance in the field of international development. Rather than assume that development and globalization are inevitable, students examine the social formation of development and explore what historical ideologies, inequalities, processes and relations produce contemporary experiences of the development and globalization. Students consider policy-makers' vision of development projects and explore their assumptions, promises, outcomes and expertise, as well as people's everyday experiences of the violence of development. This course is aimed at "de-centering" the presumption that development and progress are benevolent European ideals that define the making of the modern world. Prerequisite: SOC 100.
