課程概述

有鑑於過去十年全球農業發展已經成為學術研究的重要課題,本課程承襲建築與城鄉研究所對於全球政治經濟理論與實踐的關懷,一方面介紹鄉村發展與資源規劃相關研究的淵源與趨勢,另一方面透過政治經濟學與政治生態學取徑,幫助修課者建立相關議題的理論視野,並將理論與概念工具活用到經驗分析,再進一步將研究成果發表到國內外期刊。
This course is a graduate seminar that examines key concepts, major approaches and current debates that pertain to rural development and resource planning. It examines how concepts and theories of development and environment have been produced, maintained, used, and challenged in different world economies. In the first part of the semester we examine the rise and fall of dominant development paradigms and how they shaped different ideas concerning the environment and the management of natural resources. In viewing development as a contested process operating at multiple levels of economy and society, the course seeks to provide a set of analytical tools that is both critical and constructive.
Questions to be addressed include:
1. How and why specific ideas become hegemonic in particular historical conjunctures, while other ideas were discounted?
2. How did these ideas translate into natural resource and agriculture policy and practice in different regions of the world?
3. What are the processes by which dominant paradigms have been undermined?
The second part of the course examines current and emerging debates in empirical research on nature and resource development, addressing issues of resource struggles, the politics of knowledge systems, and socio-political movements that shape governing institutions for rural development. The ultimate goal of this course is to help students develop their conceptual toolkit for future research on rural development and resource planning.

課程要求
Class presentation: Except week 1, 15, and 17. Every week students (as a 2 people group or by consent) will be responsible for presenting the meta message of each reading, summarizing the main issues and raising questions (at least three questions), topics of interest and in general, running the discussion. Power points and/or handouts may be used to display the presentations. The presenters must come to class with a clear-cut plan to stimulate discussion, moderate it, and if necessary organize screening of relevant documentaries, small group discussions or other activities.
Reaction paper: Each student must write “3,” 2-page reaction papers, two for section one (before week 9), one for section two (after week 9, 1-inch margin on all sides, font size not less than 11.5, and line spacing of 1.5). The reaction papers should synthesize the readings for the coming week, critically evaluate them, and provide reactions or opinions of the student; it should not be a mere compilation of facts from the readings. The reaction papers must be handed in before the class begins. In other words, the papers must be handed in before the class starts discussing the readings for which the student has written his/her reactions. The student must react to all the readings assigned for those specific 3 weeks that she/he chooses.
End term essay: You will need to address a topic that we have introduced from week 9 in an essay of 5 pages. The essay is expected to particularly highlight the approach’s history, major debates, and your critiques. You may also decide to write a term paper by consent. You will turn in the final paper in class in the last day of the class.
Readings assigned might change in accord with participants’ interests.
Please note that late submission of assignments will not be accepted and there will be no makeup exams. In case you are unavailable on a day on which an assignment is due, then please submit the same a day or two earlier according to your convenience.

Attendance in class is mandatory.
