授業の目的 【英語】 Goals of the Course | | This course introduces students to basic theories and approaches in international development studies with a particular focus on ‘poverty’. In the first part, we begin by examining how ‘development’ has been conceptualised, measured, and studied by the international development community. This is followed by a review of classic theories of development to examine the changing relationship between the state and the market in promoting development. We try particularly to understand theories about modernisation and underdevelopment, the two major currents of thought that explore the causes of why nations stay poor. In the second part, we examine theories of development that are critical of Western modernity. We first revisit Marxist and neo-Marxist approaches to development. We then look at post-modern critiques of development, reviewing post-structural, post-colonial, post-development, and feminist theories. Finally, we explore alternative visions of development that may bridge the gap between uncritical modernism and excessively critical post-modernism. In the third part, we look at some of the current issues of development. |
