This module interrogates Development Geography as a discipline, discourse and practice. Framed as 'global development' in contemporary discourse, it traces its origins to colonialism and engages with debates in both mainstream and radical development thinking. Drawing on examples from different regions of the world, it focuses on global challenges related to migration, employment, gender, environment, digital technologies and development finance to reflect on the changing geographies and politics of development.
