Identities in Development: inserting “who we are” in relation to a diverse development context


International Development is a rather personal field. It confronts us with our deepest convictions and emotions. How we do and think about development is, in differentdegrees, a reflection of individual characteristics, such as our socioeconomic class, or cultural background. Studying and working in development, therefore, requires agreat deal of self-reflection. The readings and the class discussion will be used to help students identify and question their own personal biases, and how they can address these through reflective practice.

In this class we willstudy how countries adopted different development strategies with varying results.

Different Views on Why and How Institutions Matter for

Development


While today it is almost a consensus among development practitioners and scholars that institutions matter to development, this was not always so self-evident. Institutional economics has existed for a long time, but the rise of neoliberalism inthe 1980s and 1990s created a special level of attention to the debate around which institutions matter for development, and how countries should go about creating them. For example, the social backlash caused by the excessively strict structuraladjustments called into question how feasible it was to simply transplant institutions from developed to developing countries.

different questions for different groups ofcountries. For example, while emerging economies have been struggling to escape the so called “middle-income trap” through more sophisticated industrial policy, developed countries fight to maintain their economy’s robustness and competitiveness without compromising their social contract. Poorer nations, on the other hand, are attempting different ways to promote economic growth, while consolidating democracy and reducing socioeconomic inequality. Based on the readings, the class will discuss the merits of different views on how to address these problems.

International Development Across Scales: The Role of Organizations Linking a Complex Global System and the Implementation of Actual

Interventions


The debate involving international development assistance often eclipses issues of proportionality. That is, it is assumed aid flows are the single most important factor in the promotion of low-income countries’ economic growth. As a result, the debate is often limited to donor countries’ contributions, and how these contributions needto have the “best value for money.” In this class we will attempt to look at the global economy from a broader perspective, looking at less visible structural factors, which

A more careful look at the experiences of developing countries allows us to identify much variation in performance. This class will talkabout cases in which developing countries were successful in producing technical, economic and social outcomes despite expectations to the contrary. Moving beyond, we explore the emergence of South-South cooperation modalities, a process thatallowed developing countries to further these successes by collaborating and learning from each other.

The rise of NGOs and Foundations


NGOs and, more recently, private charitable foundations have gained increasing popularity since the 1990s, amassing budgets that dwarf some of the most storied development agencies. Their rapid emergence in the field caused both praise fortheir evidence driven and efficiency approach, but also raised questions about accountability and legitimacy. The class will discuss the different sides of that story, evaluating the potential and limits of these not-for-profit development players.

The Newer Role of the Private Sector in Development: Collaborative Capitalism


The Bottom of the Pyramid (BOP) is the new capitalist frontier. One such that development is created through a market-based approach. The strategy consists of mobilizing the resources and scale of large firms (the leaders of this endeavor), with the knowledge and commitment of NGOs, governments, local firms and communities, working together to create solutions to the problems of the developing world. The realization of the untapped market is said to create a win-win situation in which large private actors gain access to billions of new consumers, poorer entrepreneurs

P a g e -66/62

have a chance to enter the market, and increased access to products and more dynamic economic ecosystem generates better development outcomes for everyone. This is the so-called Collaborative (Inclusive) Capitalism. While it is too early to measure the accuracy of such claims, critics already point out several limitations that accompany this approach. In this class students will be invited to debate the validity of such claims.

Topic

Discussion Points

1 Welcome Class: Introduction to International Development


2&3 Development and the Colonial Legacy This session will discuss the role of Colonialism in shaping relationships of power and legitimacy between developing and developed countries. A better understanding of this history is intended to better contextualize the origins of Developmentparadigm.

4 The Ethical Underpinnings of Development Ethics is one of the most important aspects of international development. Still the topic is yet to receive the proper attention from academics, policy-makers and practitioners. The policies, projects or businesses in the name of development carry the promise of


P a g e -117/62

a better life, but in many cases this promise falls short. In this classwe will debate the importance of discussing the ethical implications of the interventions we come to support, before (especially), during, and after they are implemented. Assign Term Paper

6 International Development as Concept and Narrative


7 Measuring Development Economic, human, and social aspects of development are usually described and evaluated through quantitative analyses. However, such endeavors are not always clear about their assumptions and limitations. In this class we dig deeper in these issues, providing the basis for a more informed judgment on the conditions under which measures of development are useful, and when they are misleading. Class Test 1

8 Identities in Development: inserting “who we are” in relation to a diverse development

context

International Development is a rather personal field. It confronts us with our deepest convictions and emotions. How we do and think about development is, in differentdegrees, a reflection of individual characteristics, such as our socioeconomic class, or cultural background. Studying and working in development, therefore, requires agreat deal of self-reflection. The readings and the class discussion will be used to help students identify and question

P a g e -118/62

their own personal biases, and how they can address these through reflective practice.

9 Modernization and Growth Paradigms This section will examine the first generation of development theories after World War II. We will seek to identify their commonalities and differences, assessing to what extent we can see their legacy influencing current policy agendas.

10 Easier Said than Done: Dependency and the first challenges of the Development

The 1960s and 1970s represented the first decades in which long-term development data was available. Technological advances provided more computational power as well as better communications. With the world closer and better informed, the limitations of the modernization paradigm became increasingly obvious. Unemployment, mass migration, and uncontrolled urbanization in the Global Southwere externalities that could no longer be offset solely through economic growth. In this class we will talk about this very turbulent period in the development history.

11 Development Strategies by Late-Industrializing Countries


12&13 The Debt Crisis, Globalization, and the Rise of the Washington Consensus

14 Different Views on Why and How Institutions Matter for Development

While today it is almost a consensus among development practitioners and scholars that institutions matter to development,

P a g e -119/62

this was not always so self-evident. Institutional economics has existed for a long time, but the rise of neoliberalism inthe 1980s and 1990s created a special level of attention to the debate around which institutions matter for development, and how countries should go about creating them. For example, the social backlash caused by the excessively strict structuraladjustments called into question how feasible it was to simply transplant institutions from developed to developing countries. Context, history, and culture matters. Inthis class we will seek to understand why. Class Test 2

15 Continuous Development: Recent Challenges of Transition for High, Medium,

and Low income Countries

In a broad survey of the most recent happenings in the field, the class will discuss how the development challenge has posed different questions for different groups ofcountries. For example, while emerging economies have been struggling to escape the so called “middle-income trap” through more sophisticated industrial policy, developed countries fight to maintain their economy’s robustness and competitiveness without compromising their social contract. Poorer nations, on the other hand, are attempting different ways to promote economic growth, while consolidating democracy and reducing socioeconomic inequality. Based on the readings, the class will discuss the merits of different views on how to address these problems.

16 International Development Across Scales: The Role of Organizations Linking a Complex

Global System and the Implementation of Actual Interventions

The debate involving international development assistance often eclipses issues of proportionality. That is, it is assumed aid flows are the single most

P a g e -120/62

important factor in the promotion of low-income countries’ economic growth. As a result, the debate is often limited to donor countries’ contributions, and how these contributions needto have the “best value for money.” In this class we will attempt to look at the global economy from a broader perspective, looking at less visible structural factors, which nonetheless hamper more decisively the potential of developing countries progress. These include an unbalanced international trade system, illicit or oversized global financial markets, and the shadow economy. Within the context, the class goes further analyzing particular instances in which these structural factors can influencethe design, implementation, and performance of development initiatives.Assign Case Study

17 Mid-Term

18&19 An Evolutionary Account of the Bretton Woods System

In this lecture the class will be presented with a historical and functional approach to how the Breton Woods System of multilateral institutions evolved from the postwar era, to the millennium development goals, to the post-2015 agenda. This will provide students with a valuable background about how global governance works.

20 “Good Government in the Tropics” and South-South Cooperation

The fact that inequality and poverty persists in the world does not mean the “development project” has failed completely. Today the international development ecosystem is more complex and dynamic than it ever was. There are more actors,more options for trade and investment, and more mechanisms for

P a g e -121/62

knowledge and technology exchange. A more careful look at the experiences of developing countries allows us to identify much variation in performance. This class will talkabout cases in which developing countries were successful in producing technical, economic and social outcomes despite expectations to the contrary. Moving beyond, we explore the emergence of South-South cooperation modalities, a process thatallowed developing countries to further these successes by collaborating and learning from each other.

21 The rise of NGOs and Foundations NGOs and, more recently, private charitable foundations have gained increasing popularity since the 1990s, amassing budgets that dwarf some of the most storied development agencies. Their rapid emergence in the field caused both praise fortheir evidence driven and efficiency approach, but also raised questions about accountability and legitimacy. The class will discuss the different sides of that story, evaluating the potential and limits of these not-for-profit development players.

22 The Newer Role of the Private Sector in Development: Collaborative Capitalism

The Bottom of the Pyramid (BOP) is the new capitalist frontier. One such that development is created through a market-based approach. The strategy consists of mobilizing the resources and scale of large firms (the leaders of this endeavor), with the knowledge and commitment of NGOs, governments, local firms and communities, working together to create solutions to the problems of the developing world. The realization of the untapped market is said to create a win-win situation in which large private actors gain access to

P a g e -122/62

billions of new consumers, poorer entrepreneurs have a chance to enter the market, and increased access to products and more dynamic economic ecosystem generates better development outcomes for everyone. This is the so-called Collaborative (Inclusive) Capitalism. While it is too early to measure the accuracy of such claims, critics already point out several limitations that accompany this approach. In this class students will be invited to debate the validity of such claims.
