| Content |
Taking a historical and systemic approach, the course analyses a series of historical periods which show the major phases in the development of thinking on development policy and the factors determining it. After demonstrating the absence of conceptual distance between development and economic growth at the beginning of the 1950s, the course analyses how and why the concept of development gradually opened up to include issues of environment, genre, basic needs, the unofficial economy, productive employment, participation and poverty alleviation. Particular attention is paid to concepts of human and sustainable development.
Lectures supplemented by course notes and some compulsory reading.
