This course aims to provide students with an understanding of key perspectives and issues in development theory, policy, and practice. It focuses in particular on debates surrounding the effect of globalisation on poverty, the nature of 'capable states', the causes of civil war, and strategies for ensuring the sustainability of development, overcoming gender inequality, and rebuilding collapsed states. The course is intended to be multi-disciplinary in character in that it seeks to illustrate the way in which different disciplinary lenses can inform our understanding of what development is, how it occurs, and how it can be achieved.
