Abstract or Introduction
The mainstream development paradigm centered more on the goals of profit-maximization; mass production, result-oriented and global monetarism has now arrived at a problematic condition. The disillusionment about development characterized by strong failure of the state (elite capture) and the market (equal distribution) especially in the underdeveloped countries now crystallized alternative development paradigms which favour participatory and people-centered development – Post-development.
Alternative methodology (as in participatory), epistemology (as in view of human being and agency), and re-oriented goal (as in respect for differing values and self-reliance) are the approaches that revived this reaction against modernity wherein GDP is no longer seen to be the sole measurement of growth dovetailed by the appropriation of human development as the appropriate measurement. This is the very claim of endogenous development; a repoliticization of development manifested through local mobilization.
