DV431: DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT

Institutions, Organisations and Processes of Change

2016-17

Why are some countries rich and others poor? Why are some governed well and others badly? Why
are some societies able to move onto virtuous cycles of rising living standards, rising productivity
and spreading freedom, while others descend into poverty, chaos and war? How can development
managers lead countries onto stable paths of development? This course approaches key
comparative statics (i.e. the distribution of wealth and poverty across countries) and comparative
dynamics (i.e. development as contingent processes over time) of international development
through the economic, political and sociological analysis of institutions. We use institutional and
organisational theory to help students answer these questions by critically evaluating the
mechanisms that govern the operation of the different kinds of agency that are being used in
developing countries to promote progressive change. These mechanisms are expected to provide
managers of state, private and civic organisations with incentives that reward successful
performance, and to make them more accountable to their clients, customers or beneficiaries. We
review ongoing debates about the most effective ways of designing state agencies, private firms and
NGOs in order to maximise the quality of their performance and contribution to development,
emphasising the problems generated by attempts to introduce new practices and processes into late
developing countries. The course provides an analytical basis for making practical judgements about
institutional reform programmes by showing how different kinds of institutions and organisations,
centralised bureaucracies, markets, participatory and solidaristic agencies operate to provide
essential services.

CONTENT

The course is divided into five parts. Part I sets out the institutional approach employed throughout
the rest of the course, and assesses its ability to explain developmental transitions. Parts II and IV
analyse different forms of governance in developing countries, and how these contribute to, or
hinder, economic and human development. Part III examines the role of market actors and the
market as institutions, both theoretically and as they really occur in LDCs focusing on structural
impediments to rapid growth in late developing countries. Formal and informal markets are
considered. Part V turns to the relationship between civil society and development, focusing on the
household, community organisations, and NGOs. This is the core course for the MSc in Development
Management, the MSc in Anthropology and Development Management, and the MSc in African
Development. The course will be taught through lectures, seminars and workshops. There will be 19
lectures accompanied by 19 weekly seminars, special sessions focused on the consultancy project,
and other events such as workshops, a debate, and project presentations, the dates of which will be
confirmed in due course. Lectures will review key theoretical debates; seminars will discuss the topic
covered in the previous lecture, and will be conducted on the basis either of a student presentation
or a class exercise. Seminars and workshops will concentrate more on the practical problems
associated with implementation, drawing on case studies and the personal experience of
participants. We have developed an extensive list of case studies and complementary readings to
further enrich these discussions.
All students are required to do two seminar presentations and one essay, and to take part in a live
consulting exercise for a real development agency, the latter in groups of 3-5 students. Groups will
present their consultancy project results early in the Summer Term and will be expected to submit a
collective report of no more than 10,000 words. These will be evaluated towards the 'research
methods' component of the course. All Development Management students will participate in a
special session during the induction week prior to the start of term, as well as in all of the other
activities organised for ID students.

BACKGROUND READINGS

There is no general textbook for the course, which attempts to bring together insights from a range
of disciplines dealing with problems of management and institutional reform. The weekly reading
lists identify a small number of key texts which students should read, and provide a range of further
readings for those particularly interested in the topic. There are, however, several texts from which
the course draws heavily, which students should buy:

than others? Can these be transformed or allayed? Why do leading theorists disagree on the
answers to these questions? Critically analyze their assumptions about how development occurs.
