中文简介:
我们这个时代的核心是世界所有地区逐步走向统一的经济和政治发展标准。在本课程中,我们将阅读各种最近的叙述,这些叙述分享,反对或贡献于这个故事,从小说和诗歌到世界银行和国际货币基金组织的声明和国家地理报告。我们将寻求理解许多动机和声音–有时是一致的,有时是冲突的–目前正致力于为发展中国家的人们提供账户:他们的艰辛,笑声和勇气,以及他们如何帮助自己并得到外人的帮助,他们可能有也可能没有慈善动机。阅读材料包括J. G. Ballard,牙买加Kincaid,Rohinton Mistry和John le Carr&eacute的文献,以及政策文件,报纸和杂志文章,以及各种贸易和发展委员会和组织的网站。
课程简介: Central to our era is the gradual movement of all the world's regions toward a uniform standard of economic and political development. In this class we will read a variety of recent narratives that partake of, dissent from, or contribute to this story, ranging from novels and poems to World Bank and IMF statements and National Geographic reports. We will seek to understand the many motives and voices – sometimes congruent, sometimes clashing – that are currently engaged in producing accounts of people in the developing world: their hardships, laughter, and courage, and how they help themselves and are helped by outsiders who may or may not have philanthropic motives. Readings will include literature by J. G. Ballard, Jamaica Kincaid, Rohinton Mistry, and John le Carré, as well as policy documents, newspaper and magazine articles, and the Web sites of a variety of trade and development commissions and organizations.
