Faculte des sciences sociales
Examination of the development paradigm as a social fact. The concept of development is approached as a set of practices and knowledge constructed by diverse actors and relating to diverse socio-cultural contexts going beyond the binary “North-South” vision. Analysis of social change as carried out from a developmental perspective by questioning the dominant models included in major international programs: demographic paradigm, sustainable development, restrictive vision of culture and normative frameworks. The methodological and ethical challenges inherent to research carried out in this area will be examined from the angle of epistemic justice and the decolonization of methodologies.
