Welcome to Gothenburg and the Development Research Conference

2018 – ‘Rethinking Development’

What kind of ‘development’ is wanted for today’s world? The idea, study, and policy field

of ‘development’ emerged in the 1940s, in a time of decolonization, the Cold War, and

Euro-centric high modernism. Seventy years later the scene is one of new emerging

economies, migration crises, multiculturalism, climate change, and new patterns of

infectious and chronic diseases. Given such profound transformations, do we need, again,

to rethink ‘development’?

The biennial Swedish Development Research Conference (DevRes) offers a unique

platform for engaging in current debates on development research and practices. The

conference provides a multi-disciplinary forum for networking and exchange of ideas

between development researchers, policy makers and other non-academic practitioners. In

particular, the conference allows for intellectual dialogue among scholars from different

world regions.

In the last two decades, international development cooperation and development research

have undergone significant changes. The framework of development cooperation has

changed in terms of actors, instruments, and practices. Furthermore, the empirical context

in which international development cooperation plays out has undergone substantial

changes. Today’s development cooperation is part of a wider global policy context. The

traditional distinction of a global North and South is increasingly obsolete, and

development is pursued on multiple scales rather than only within national boundaries. In

addition, the United Nations’ Agenda 2030 recognizes that social, environmental and

economic change are mutually dependent within Sustainable Development.

As a consequence, ‘development’ wants rethinking. For example, do the Sustainable

Development Goals (SDGs) go far enough in redefining the research and policy agenda?

Do we need to redirect research attention to new and re-emerging issues such as diasporas,

digitization, food security, religion, intellectual property, and health surveillance; or is an

older agenda of trade, democracy and conflict resolution as vital as ever? What place, if

any, remains for ‘aid’ in today’s altered development landscape? Do we need renewed

debate on ethics and positionality in global development research and practice?

To engage these and other debates at the forefront of development studies, the School of

Global Studies (SGS) and the Centre on Global Migration (CGM) at the University of

Gothenburg welcome everybody to the Development Research Conference 2018. We are

grateful for generous funding support from the Swedish Research Council and the Swedish

Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), as well as from the Gothenburg Centre of

Globalization and Development (GCGD).

Keynote speeches

Migration, Diaspora and Development Agendas: A Cautionary Tale

Alissa Trotz Professor of Carribbean Studies and Women and Gender Studies

New College, University of Toronto 22 August 9.15-10.15 Location: Wallenbergsalen (W)

The call for papers for this conference asks whether we ‘need to ‘rethink’ the

migration-development nexus.’ This is an urgent imperative, at a time when what the late Jamaican economist Norman Girvan has described as a series of ‘existential threats’ is producing the displacement of people on a massive scale. This presentation

responds to this call by critically engaging a fairly recent intellectual and policy-oriented approach that identifies diasporic populations as key to solving the

‘development woes’ of the Global South. It explores how ‘diaspora as possibility’ is being discursively mobilized across an overlapping range of actors and scales that

includes states, development agencies and international financial institutions. In these accounts, diasporics are defined through transnational affective and affinal ties that

can be productively tapped and harnessed to development agendas. Moreover, in our current neoliberal moment, not just any diasporic will do. Drawing on examples

primarily from the Caribbean, this presentation reflects on the unspoken costs of these extra-territorial recruitment efforts that target a narrow and privileged strata of overseas communities. Who and what is elided in the current romance, in which the

diasporic investor gets positioned as the antithesis of the migrant as problem? The

paper urges attention to the limits of this vision of the diaspora-development nexus, one that stands to deepen the very conditions that produce ongoing dispossession and displacement.

Development(alism) is Dead, Long Live Development(alism)! Theory

and Practice in Development Research David Simon Director, Mistra Urban Futures and Professor of Development Geography, Royal

Holloway University of London 22 August 10.45-11.45

Location: Wallenbergsalen (W) The theme of this conference provides an important opportunity to assess the current

state and relationship between theory and practice in development research in our

confusing and challenging global condition. Following the so-called ‘development

impasse’ of the 1980s, it became fashionable to proclaim that development and

6

developmentalism were dead. However, there have been major improvements to

human health and wellbeing over the last 70-80 years, and demand for further gains

remains strong. Yet not all have benefited, and the current global upheavals reflect

rebellion at different levels by those who feel themselves to be losers in our globalised

and differentially liberalised predominantly capitalist world order. The mainstream

development ‘industry’ is currently framed more inclusively around the Sustainable

Development Goals. Meaningful progress to achieving them requires real state

capacity, substantive engagement by all relevant stakeholders, and adequate

resourcing of diverse kinds. Conversely, the achievements of anti- and post-

development remain limited, but the search for alternatives continues. This lecture

ends by offering some provocative reflections for development research in troubled

times.

Plenary Roundtable 23 August 14.15-16.15


The conference rounds off by asking a panel of experts to reflect broadly on

‘Rethinking Development’. Given the profound changes of a more global world, is

there a need (again) for rethinking development? If so, why? And what needs to be

rethought? What is left of development in a new and global world and in a context

with an ever-expanding agenda of issues related to development? Another set of

questions relate to the heavy emphasis in both research and policy on the Sustainable

Development Goals (SDGs) and Agenda 2030. This begs questions about how should

development researchers and practitioners think about the SDGs? Do the SDGs go far

enough in redefining the research and policy agenda? What are the promises and

pitfalls of the SDGs?

Events & Exhibitions

Junior Scholar Session 22 August 11.45-12.30 Location: Antarktis (W)

The Junior Scholar Session presents paper proposals from PhD students and early career researchers with the double scope of having the opportunity to discuss and

exchange with leading senior scholars in their field and of receiving extensive feedback on their work-in-progress. Following a brief wide introduction to the

session, the contributors are divided into smaller thematic groups of 3-5 junior scholars and a senior scholar who acts as discussant of the papers. The groups work in parallel. Each presenter gets the opportunity to present their paper, receive in-depth

feedback from the senior scholar, and discuss with the rest of the group as well as the

audience. This format provides a great opportunity for junior scholars to connect with leading scholars in their field and to practice writing, presenting and discussing conference papers. The feedback from senior scholars will include general advice in relation to the paper, such as how to publish in academic journals, how to present

work at a conference, and how to position oneself within a specific field of research.

Experimental Exhibition

Saying More than a Thousand Words 22 August 11.45-12.30 Location: Wallenberg Lobby (W)

‘Rethinking development’ also means to rethink the ways we talk about development. This includes an exploration of possibilities for conversations beyond words that seek

to visualize science in new and engaging ways. We have therefore explicitly invited conference participants to submit contributions that do not fit into conventional paper presentation formats. These can range from two-dimensional visual artworks such as paintings, drawings, graphic art, moving images such as animation, music video, short

narrative film, three-dimensional works such as sculpture, installation, interactive

installation, and performative works in the form of dance, other choreographic works, live performances, lecture-performances, games, sound, spoken words, poetry and music works as ways to communicate development research to fellow participants of

the conference. The following contributions to the experimental exhibition will be

found in the Wallenberg Lobby (W).

Do I Know You? Katrin Hattenhaur, Artist and PhD candidate at Oxford Brookes University

The sculpture ‘Do I Know You’ is about imagining ourselves in someone else’s

shoes, so we can understand that person better. Understanding others and being understood by others is vital for us. More so in the face of the challenges that everyone of us has to master every day and the conceptual and political challenges in

a globalized world with mass migration and climate change.

I have collected more than 60 pairs of shoes from people from more than 20 different

nations and their stories. Each story is presented in a short video and online. No pair of shoes, no one and no story remains isolated. Rather, they make a whole together with each perspective influencing our understanding the others. Yet, understanding is not solely directed at the other. We too need other perspectives to see clearly who we

are. The Social Sculpture ‘Do I Know You’ is working to visualize fundamental issues of perspective that may help to discuss ethical foundations for the rethinking of the very notion of development. We need to become aware of what we understand or believe to have understood about the others and to rethink how we understand

ourselves and our role in supporting others. The motivation for my sculpture is

simple. Many ills have been with us for generations. Injustice, war, exploitation and inequality remain fixed in our society. It almost seems we are incapable of living together. But if we could truly step into someone else shoes, we would have more

understanding, express more empathy and ultimately our world would be a warmer, fairer and better place for all of us.

Collaborative Comics – Comic exhibition and interactive drawing workshop By Theodor Aalders, PhD candidate at the School of Global Studies This is an exhibition showing parts of my preliminary research results of a fieldwork

conducted earlier this year about the LAPSSET corridor in North Kenya. Part of this

field work was the collaborative production of short comic stories, in which three Kenyan artists worked with interlocutors from different backgrounds to translate their accounts of the project into visual representations. As the LAPSSET project is still

being planned and (apart from some beacons indicating its path) did not yet

materialise on the ground, the aim of this exercise was to enable interlocutors to talk about something concrete – the images created by the artists – in addition to conversations about abstracts hopes, fears and anticipations regarding the project. The contribution I am proposing consists of two parts: a (permanent) exhibition and a

workshop, in which the general premise of ‘collaborative comics’ as a methodological tool can be explored by the participants.

The Wall Anja Franck, Leon Bergström, Parisa Nasrabadi, School of Global Studies Over the course of 2015 and 2016 several hundred thousand people sought refuge in Europe. This event spurred multiple shifts in policies across European Union member states – resulting in securitized and closed borders as well as new regulations for

asylum and residence. In an attempt to map and visualize these shifts chronologically, we have built a several meter long wooden wall that on one side chronologically displays data on arrivals and policies (from the spring of 2015 to the end of 2016) and on the other side features artwork by the painter Mazdak Tousi. Our intention is that

this wall will provoke new ways of discussing, thinking and theorizing around the

multiple events that we now associate with the notion of a ‘European refugee crisis’.

Swedish Development Studies Network

22 August 12.00-13.00 Location: Sydamerika (W)

Development Studies are well established at universities and other institutions in

Sweden and the other Nordic countries. Unlike Denmark, Finland and Norway, Sweden still lacks a national network and association for development studies.

Initiating a Swedish Development Studies Network could fill this gap to facilitate interaction between scholars in the field of Development Studies and to provide a

forum for cultivating contacts with policy makers and other stakeholders in development research and advocacy. The network would benefit from a close cooperation with the other Nordic Development Studies associations and the

European Association for Development Research and Training Institutes (EADI). It

would join the efforts to continue with a biennial Nordic Development Studies Conference on a rotating basis in the Nordic countries and would also support the Swedish biennial Development Studies Conference.

We invite all interested to this initial meeting. We envisage the establishment of network which aims to: (i) promote Development Studies locally and internationally; (ii) support interaction among scholars in Sweden, the Nordic countries and globally with a shared commitment to Development Studies; (iii) enhance visibility of

Development Studies in the public domain through disseminate and information and research; (iv) seek closer communication and exchange with development policy relevant institutions and organizations in the state and civil society; and (v) welcome scholars in a variety of disciplines.

If there is interest in taking matters further, the network could develop into a formal association. Consultative meetings should then be planned at an opportune event during 2019, with the aim to encourage Swedish academic and other institutions to

join. Such an association should also be open to individual scholars.

Strengths, Difficulties and Needs within Development Research

22 August 16.15-17.45

Location: SA305 (1A)

The Committee for Development Research at the Swedish Research Council supports

research of relevance for poverty reduction and sustainable development in low-income countries, as well as provide support for collaboration with researchers in

low-income and lower-middle-income countries. The Committee is currently conducting an overview of development research, which will be an important strategic document for the Committee and a basis for advice from the Swedish Research

Council to the Swedish Government for the next research bill in 2020.

You are most welcome to room SA305, 16.15-17.45, 22 August, during the Development Research Conference 2018 for informal discussions with members of

the Committee for Development Research. We look forward to your input on the

overview and advice on the strengths, difficulties and needs within the research area.

SIGHT, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for the Future 23 August 11:00-12:30 Location: Asien (W) Moderators: Sara Causevic and Johan Dahlstrand

The Swedish Institute for Global Health Transformation (SIGHT) was established as an institute under the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 2017. SIGHT’s vision

is to improve health and wellbeing for all with a focus on vulnerable groups. The purpose is to promote an interdisciplinary approach, to strengthen and bridge Swedish

research and education, and to provide a scientific basis for national and transnational policy work in global health.

In 2015 the UN General Assembly adopted the SDGs as part of a transformative universal framework for global development, the 2030 Agenda. Since the 17 goals

and 169 targets are interconnected they have to be tackled in an integrated way. The

interlinkages could be synergetic, but also trade-offs exist between social, economic and environmental goals. In order to implement the SDGs there is a need for method development, including modelling the above both theoretically and in the real world, with applications in different contexts. Essential here is respectful and transparent

partnerships, goal 17. The two SIGHT programmes, student network and fellows, are interdisciplinary and represent a resource base for the future.

11

The modelling will use example themes, including relationships between SDG 3

(health and wellbeing), SDG 5 (gender equality), and SDG 16 (peace and institutions), applying scoring approaches and assessing the interlinkages between the

respective targets. The challenge to go from multidisciplinary to interdisciplinary approaches will also be addressed. The aim is furthermore to contextualise this development exercise into a few countries, focusing on middle- and low-income

settings.

Furthermore, the different dimensions of student and young researchers’ involvement in the implementation of the SDGs will be discussed. This includes knowledge,

attitudes to the SDGs and targets, and their realism, but even more ‘the-how’ aspects,

namely the implementation of the goals. Here targets of many of the SDGs are involved but the focus will be on SDG 16 (accountable institutions) as well as SDG 17 (partnerships). Swedish experience regarding institutional capacity development

with institutions in low-income countries will be referred to.

EBA: Rethinking Evaluation of Development Cooperation in a New Era 23 August 11:00-12:30

Location: SA 204 (1A) Moderator: Helena Lindholm, Chair, Expert Group for Aid Studies (EBA)

Panelists: Anders Troedsson, Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs; Johan Schaar, Expert Group for Aid Studies (EBA); Jan Aart Scholte, School of Global Studies,

Stephan Klingebiel, German Development Institute (DIE); Kerstin Sahlin, Swedish Research Council (VR); Pernilla Sjöquist Rafiqui, Evaluation Unit, Sida

A changing world necessitates dynamically changing systems for aid and international development cooperation. Factors such as the emergence of new economies, migration processes, climate change and public health challenges accordingly need to be taken into account in the provision of, and research on, international development

assistance. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Agenda 2030 directly affect the design of national, as well as international development policy.

Protracted wars and humanitarian disasters affect long-term development assistance.

Fragile states and weak institutions mean that assistance operates in challenging and

complex environments, with potential consequences on long-term gains and sustainability. How then can evaluations and research on development assistance and cooperation be improved to better relate to this complex and constantly changing

reality? How are opportunities for effective evaluation affected by changes in international development policy? What is important to focus on? How can we

understand the relationship between humanitarian aid and development cooperation? What role can research play in evaluating and understanding development cooperation

in a changing world?

Stockholm Resilience Center: Building Bridges and Forging

Connections: Science-Practitioner Alliances for Sustainable

Development 23 August 2018 9.00-10.30 Location: SA 204 (1A)

The aim of this roundtable is to build academic-development practice alliances and shared understandings to ameliorate research-practice disconnects. We seek to strengthen social-ecological systems (SES) development research and development practice through building dialogue around different perspectives, interests and

priorities of Roundtable participants.

There continues to be a disconnect between sustainable development scholarship and research with development policy, policy implementation and practice. These gaps

occur between social development research and practice, such as in gender equality,

and also on environmental issues, such as understanding and preventing ecological regime shifts. In addition, the relationship, feedback and cross-scale implications between the social and ecological remain conceptually disjointed across research and

practice. These gaps and disconnects can generate unexpected, and sometimes

undesirable, outcomes in fast-changing landscapes. They are interlinked through complex pathways, such as in sustainable development objectives to mitigate and adapt to climate and environmental change, maintain biodiversity and ecosystem

service flows, improve farmer livelihoods , and enhance social justice.

To address this issue, the Stockholm Resilience Centre’s GRAID (Guidance for

Resilience in the Anthropocene: Investments for Development) program offers a side event at the Development Research Conference. We propose to engage sustainable development academic and practitioner communities in policy and practice to debate synergies and dissonances in understanding and doing sustainable development. In

particular, we frame our discussion through understandings of historical perspectives, situated contexts of social differentiation, and equity and agency can both advance and complicate development practice in changing social and ecological landscapes. The event will be guided by the questions:

What are the frontier topics in SES development research that can support doing development differently (as evident at the conference)?

What are the big issues pressing or constraining development practice?

Where do answers to questions 1 and 2 converge, diverge and intersect?

How can we build on these synergies to further sustainable development goals

through innovative research, evaluation and policy?
