This is a 3-credit course offered in the first year of the MA programme to create awareness of fundamental ideas pertaining to Sociology of Development as well as Anthropology of Development.The course is therefore designed to provide a sound understanding of the key concepts, ideas and theoretical models relevant to examining the complex and often contested ideas of social change and development from both sociological and anthropological perspectives. The sessions in this course thus provide the foundation for a critical reading of development discourse and practice which will be offered in the second year of the MA programme.
