IDCE 30294 - Theoretical Perspectives and Practical Decision Making in Development

This course focuses on four theoretical perspectives on development and their implications for practical decision making in regard to policies and programs for two fishing communities in the fictitious country of Arcadia. Five key intellectual questions shape our discussions: Who are the disadvantaged in a given social system? What is the nature of their disadvantage? What are the social relations (structures and organizations) that maintain their disadvantage? What are the historical patterns and trends in these social relations? What are the relationships among the local, national and international levels in creating and perpetuating these disadvantages?
