About International Development: Politics, Governance and Development Policy at University of Manchester, School of Environment, Education and Development, University of Manchester, Faculty of Humanities

This course examines the obstacles to, and pathways towards, more legitimate, democratic and pro-poor forms of governance at global, national and local levels. The course interrogates the discursive paradigms and material interventions in the area of politics and governance, which has moved to the centre of the international development agenda since the late 1980s.
