SUMMARY:Diversity in Development: Alternative Visions of “Development”
DESCRIPTION:The first session of this Diversity in Development series discussed facts of the problem of limited diversity in the field of international development and introduced frameworks for understanding the problem. In this second session\, panelists will discuss goals of “development” and the extent to which a vision of development is shared\, including aspects of self-determination\, capabilities\, and justice. Development has most commonly been defined as “economic development\,” with GDP per capita as a central indicator. There is an extensive history of scholarship offering alternative definitions\, ranging from happiness\, to critical consciousness\, to institutional strength\, to biological health\, and more. The panelists will explore the question of what the goal of development really is or should be from a variety of perspectives.
