Constructing an intellectual history of European development discourse, this book brings together post-structuralist and critical approaches to understanding development. Nathalie Karagiannis analyses three key terms of European development discourse: 'responsibility', 'efficiency' and 'giving'. Situating these terms in a concrete history of European post-colonial politics, the author shows how European policy has shifted from accepting responsibility for colonialism - constructed as it is on the paternalistic model of the gift - to a more amnesiac politics in which post-colonial countries are responsible for their own fate. In this way, Karagiannis illustrates that efficiency has become the overriding goal of development, and that the relationship between 'developed' and 'developing' countries is mainly defined by considerations pertaining to market capitalism.Economic developmentEconomic assistance, EuropeanDeveloping countriesPostcolonialismDeveloping countriesEconomic conditionsDeveloping countriesSocial conditionsEuropean Union countriesForeign economic relationsDeveloping countriesDeveloping countriesForeign economic relationsEuropean Union countriesElectronic books.Economic development.Economic assistance, EuropeanPostcolonialism.338.91/401724Karagiannis Nathalie896090MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454722603321Avoiding responsibility2001767UNINA02604nam 2200541 a 450 991077781300332120230828231405.01-383-03468-01-280-75420-60-19-152590-11-4294-7028-3(CKB)1000000000473522(EBL)415111(OCoLC)437092694(SSID)ssj0000109525(PQKBManifestationID)11795023(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000109525(PQKBWorkID)10047363(PQKB)10552338(Au-PeEL)EBL415111(CaPaEBR)ebr10271579(CaONFJC)MIL75420(Au-PeEL)EBL7035741(MiAaPQ)EBC415111(EXLCZ)99100000000047352220070611d2006 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrBeckett and Badiou[electronic resource] the pathos of intermittency /Andrew GibsonOxford ;New York Oxford University Press20061 online resource (337 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-19-920775-5 Includes bibliographical references (p.
