商品簡介
This volume re-imagines development through a careful and imaginative exploration of some of the many ways that culture - in the broadest sense of lived experience and its representation - can recenter resistance, suggest alternative models and advance critiques of development as it is currently practiced. The volume is organized around three central questions:
How can development as it is currently propounded be `refused' and how can such a refusal suggest ways toward a more equitable and liveable development? How are emergent discourses around science, sexuality, and gendered economies challenging dominant approaches to development? How do fictions and other cultural productions help envision alternatives to development?This volume engages with the puzzle of how best to conceptualize an alternative development, one that improves the living conditions of poor people in the South and simultaneously demands a solution that focuses on the integration of gender, diversity and development with the realities of people's lives.
