WITS Development Studies MA: Economics & Sociology of Development
The process of development involves structural change in the economy and society, leading to the enhancement of capabilities to meet human needs. This course aims to provide students with an understanding of development as a comprehensive process with several dimensions, and to equip students to evaluate the implications of a ‘developmental intervention’ – whether policy, programme or project – through analysis of both the immediate and direct impact, as well as the wider social, political and economic effects.
