It introduces ways of thinking “otherwise” about development discourse and what the contributors term “developmentalism”—the social enchantment with development. The cultural discourse of development in contemporary South Asia manifests not only in the official programs of state agencies, but in cinema, television, and mass media. Dear to various stakeholders—from government leaders and manufacturers to consumers and the electorate—is the axiom of a “development(al) society.” Organized to bridge familiar understandings of development with radical ways of thinking through developmentalism, this book holds value for those engaged in the anthropology and sociology of development, development studies, South Asian studies, as well as for development professionals working for state and non-governmental organizations.. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | disenchantment; development; development models; mediascapes; documentary filmmaking; neoliberal South As | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-17443-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-17445-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-17443-9 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
