Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
The Millennium Development Goals are an 'answer' given to the problems of the Third World, given by donors (largely, the European countries, North America, Japan), international agencies, and the 139 countries which have committed to them. They say what is important. They are the focus of concern about development, and increasingly motivate and direct aid efforts. They tell us 'what' and, in large part, 'how much' and even 'for whom.' It is crucial to examine analytically and critically the issues raised in attempting to implement these goals, and to ask how development is proceeding, and why, and what changes should be made, if any. The course focuses on what is happening in these sectors in Africa, the poorest continent; it will utilize a number of studies drawn from Africa, and will try to emphasize what is happening 'on the ground.' It will attempt to focus upon a limited number of systematic (as opposed to ad hoc) analyses of issues which have been raised with regards economic, political and public administrative theory.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
tudents will be assessed by means of their participation, having read the assigned works, an annotated bibliography written assignment, a presentation, and a short paper (25 pages or so) written at the conclusion of the course.
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
ajor goals include: (a) creating an awareness of the plethora of on-line materials by sources around the world which make more 'field-oriented' development research possible,
(b) creating an understanding of the importance of critical analysis of the major thrusts of development thought, (c) demonstrating how economic, political and administrative theory can be used to shed useful light on development attempts, and a useful perspective on the forms development aid (such as the MDGs) should take, and (d) developing a questioning, analytical and scholarly perspective in students studying development.
