【Purpose and course overview】-
Learning from discussions in development studies and anthropology, this course intends to critically examine the current practice in development with a particular focus on ‘poverty’.
The first part of the course focuses on theoretical discussions. It starts with a review of conventional thinking about ‘poverty’ in international development community, and then introduces some critical theories which challenge various presumptions underlining the conventional thinking. The main questions to be investigated in the first part are ‘is market the only guiding principles of human behavior?’ and ‘who has right to talk about poverty?’. Some of the critical theories to be taken up include: participatory development, entitlement/capability approach, political and economic anthropology, post-modern/colonialism and feminist anthropology.
The rest of the course looks into the current poverty alleviation practice in development. It takes up some concrete measures which are introduced by public sector, private sector and civil society respectively, for example, regulation and safeguards (public sector), conditional cash transfers (public sector), inclusive/BOP business (private sector), microfinance (private sector) and fair trade (civil society). Building on the knowledge acquired through the theoretical discussions in the first part, the course attempts to assess the effectiveness and limitations of each of these measures.
There will be presetnations and group exercises as well for which students’ active participation is expected.

(1) to acquire basic knowledge about the current practice on poverty in international development;
