Resumo
Development is a strategic research site to initiate productive conversation between sociology and Science and Technology Studies (STS), because, on one hand, development is a significant social change process, and simultaneously, on the other hand, it is a 'contact zone' where diverse social practices from the West and the Global South meet and negotiate with one another. With the case study of the development in South Korea, this project will demonstrate how postcolonial studies of science and technology offer opportunities for innovations in development studies. The lens of STS contributes to elucidating how each development practice could be implemented and compete and negotiate in constituting 'development assemblage' in South Korea.
