I can't believe that development language is still automatically used to dissect policy making in the South.
There's a lot of what Escobar says that I disagree with- I'm all for enjoying the fruits of modernity as much as the next person- but honestly, language is absolutely key- and if the people who 'care' continue to degrade the South in this way, it's just creating obstacles for us to overcome when we have enough.
Perception isn't everything, but it says a lot about the authors themselves.
