Description / Abstract
Technocratic approach to development in Africa has dominated the development landscape till date, but not without problems. Thus, how are conventional development interventions and practices connected to situated socio-historical processes in contemporary African societies and what are the ramifications? The SKAD analysis underpinned this study and showed that the technocratic form of knowledge continues to dominate Africa’s development without recourse to situated discourses and forms of knowledge. So, this study recommends discourse and development studies scholars and practitioners give special attention to the situated interpretations of the dispositif for »sustainable development«.
