Developmentalism Vs Wellbeing of South Asian Societies 2023
DeWeSAS 2023
With the support of global capital, big corporates have entered into developing countries. They have impacted world polity and the political economy of our countries in South Asia. So called development has become the political dictate. This is exclusive development and hence we may call it as "Developmentalism " which is largely against the wellbeing of the societies. This kind of phenomenal development has strengthened the divide between rural and urban areas in SA.
