Community Driven Development and Structural Disadvantage: Interrogating the Social Turn in Development Programming in Indonesia
分析印度尼西亚大型社区驱动发展项目的效果,发现其虽成功生成新的政治理性和治理技术,但基于社会资本概念的发展项目能否真正赋权边缘群体仍存疑。
Community-driven development (CDD) programmes have emerged on a large scale in the Global South following research and policy work regarding social capital, capabilities and empowerment. This paper analyses one of the largest international examples of the ‘social’ turn, examining the effects of the CDD approach in governmental, structural and relational terms. While the CDD approach successfully generated new political rationalities and governmental technologies, the ability of development programming driven by social capital concepts to empower marginalised sections of society remains in question. The ambiguities associated with CDD outcomes indicate the contradictions at the heart of social capital debate.
