Apr 12-13: The Progress Paradox:  Critical Perspectives on Development, Swarthmore College, PA.  We will be sitting on a panel discussing sustainable development:

“This conference will explore how conventional notions of development have had and continue to have global repercussions that are often overlooked by mainstream perspectives within academia and the development sector. More specifically, we are interested in critiquing current notions of development by drawing on international case studies while adopting an interdisciplinary approach that includes voices from the fields of economics, political science, environmental studies, history, sociology, and anthropology.”
