Abstract
The article argues that in the field of North-South relations, predominant conceptions of social change have been transformed during the last decades. The discourse of ‘development’, which used to be dominant, has been gradually replaced by a discourse of ‘globalisation’. The article engages in a comparative analysis of the two discourses, their underlying principles and the political practices rendered possible by them.
Der Artikel argumentiert, dass im Bereich der Nord-Süd Beziehungen die gängigen Konzeptionen über sozialen Wandel in den letzten Jahrzehnten eine Transformation erfahren haben. Der früher dominante Diskurs der “Entwicklung“ ist zunehmend einem Diskurs der “Globalisierung“ gewichen. Der Artikel unternimmt eine vergleichende Analyse der beiden Diskurse, der ihnen zugrundeliegenden Prinzipien und der durch sie ermöglichten politischen Praktiken.
