| Main themes |
This course aims, on one hand, to familiarize with the theoretical approaches as well as the framework of analy-sis and interpretation of the political dimensions of development. On the other hand, it aims to give an insight of the power dynamics that have an impact on the types of development. It will analyse the evolution of power relations in different contemporary processes. Based on case studies, it aims to point out these changing proc-esses and the relations between the actors involved; to confront to these processes conceptualization attempts; to offer explicatory and prospective hypotheses.
