Focusing on the project of Development, as concept and practice, panelists explore their own understanding of this term and assess its failure and success.  By highlighting similarities and differences among the panelists on the notion of development and its contemporary relevance (or lack of it), we aim to generate a frictional discussion.


Development Thought & Policy @ The New School is a multidisciplinary seminar series that brings to the fore contemporary research and policy proposals for development that is equitable and human centered. It aims to promote quality discussion amongst knowledgeable faculty and students on diverse approaches to development.
