How did the industrialized nations of North America and Europe come to be seen as the appropriate models for post-World War II societies in Asia, Africa, and Latin America? How did the postwar discourse on development actually create the so-called Third World? And what will happen when development ideology collapses? To answer these questions, Arturo Escobar shows how development policies became mechanisms of control that were just as pervasive and effective as their colonial counterparts. The development apparatus generated categories powerful enough to shape the thinking even of its occasional critics while poverty and hunger became widespread. 'Development' was not even partially 'deconstructed' until the 1980s, when new tools for analyzing the representation of social reality were applied to specific 'Third World' cases. Here Escobar deploys these new techniques in a provocative analysis of development discourse and practice in general, concluding with a discussion of alternative visions for a postdevelopment era. Escobar emphasizes the role of economists in development discourse - his case study of Colombia demonstrates that the economization of food resulted in ambitious plans, and more hunger. To depict the production of knowledge and power in other development fields, the author shows how peasants, women, and nature became objects of knowledge and targets of power under the 'gaze of experts'.

The Problematization of Poverty: The Tale of Three Worlds and Development
评分The Problematization of Poverty: The Tale of Three Worlds and Development
评分看到前几页还觉得过瘾，但往后看，发现作者何尝不是在做另一种‘简化’和‘去情景化’，既忽视了对所谓‘被发展对象’内部的多样化考察，也缺乏对发展机构本身的分析，从话语分析上Ferguson要做得更好，从民族志角度Moss和Yallow也是更出色。
评分The Problematization of Poverty: The Tale of Three Worlds and Development
评分Foucault... always Foucault....
