Special Issue on

Anthropology and the Dynamics of Development

Anthropology and the Dynamics of Development explores how cultural, social, political, and economic factors influence and interact with development processes across different societies. This field emphasizes the importance of understanding local contexts, indigenous knowledge systems, and community perspectives when designing and implementing development projects. Anthropologists contribute critical insights into the unintended consequences of development interventions and advocate for participatory, inclusive, and culturally sensitive approaches. By examining power relations, identity, and global-local dynamics, anthropology offers valuable tools for creating more equitable and sustainable development outcomes.
