Abstract
In the late 1980s, the institutionalisation of 'development' or 'Third World' studies is by now well advanced. The field — one hesitates to say, 'discipline' — has achieved widespread formal recognition: both in its own right, and as a component or sub-field within the familiar more general (or, in a sense, more particular) social science disciplines such as economics, politics, geography, and sociology.
