Thesis (M.A.)--Carleton University (Canada), 2005.

This study emerges the face of global struggles for transformation in existing structures of power and inequality. Through an analysis of current debates on development and property rights, it is revealed that these struggles are frequently either ignored or co-opted and transformed into rhetoric that becomes important in waging what Gramsci called a 'war of position'; that is, an ideological struggle to win popular consent to the program of the ruling class. It is argued that unless and until widely-held assumptions about human nature, property, the economy and history are apprehended as productions of a hegemonic discourse on development, existing relationships of power and interest will remain intact. In this light, the study calls for a new, more holistic theoretical framework and methodology that can simultaneously apprehend multiple-levels of analysis---i.e. local and global; material and ideal/discursive. This study is an attempt to exemplify such an approach.
