Long detailed description of the plot: Social Science as Imperialism: The Theory of Political Development, by Claude Ake, is a seminal work that critiques the dominant Western paradigm of social science and its role in perpetuating imperialism and underdevelopment in the Global South. The book, first published in 1979 and now reissued with a new introduction, exposes the ideological nature of "westernization" and its harmful effects on the developing world. Ake, a prominent African scholar and democrat, argues that the Western model of development is not only inadequate but also actively hinders the progress of the Global South. He advocates for a new model of social science that is socially-oriented and rejects Western paradigms. The book begins by highlighting the pernicious impact of scientific knowledge on the Third World, where Western social sciences, whether intentionally or unintentionally, impose capitalist values and development on colonized countries. Ake argues that this "imperialism of knowledge" has resulted in the imposition of foreign values and institutions, which have contributed to the underdevelopment of the Global South. He contends that Western development studies are not only useless but also harmful, as they reinforce the existing power dynamics between the North and the South.
Long detailed description of the plot: Social Science as Imperialism: The Theory of Political Development, by Claude Ake, is a seminal work that criticizes the dominant Western paradigma of social science and its role in perpetherating imialism and Under development in the Global South. Книга, впервые опубликованная в 1979 году, а теперь переизданная с новым введением, раскрывает идеологическую природу «вестернизации» и ее вредное воздействие на развивающийся мир. Аке, известный ученый-африканист и демократ, утверждает, что западная модель развития не только неадекватна, но и активно препятствует прогрессу глобального Юга. Он выступает за новую модель социальной науки, которая является социально-ориентированной и отвергает западные парадигмы. Книга начинается с освещения пагубного воздействия научных знаний на страны третьего мира, где западные социальные науки, намеренно или непреднамеренно, навязывают капиталистические ценности и развитие колонизированным странам. Аке утверждает, что этот «империализм знания» привел к насаждению иностранных ценностей и институтов, которые способствовали неразвитости Глобального Юга. Он утверждает, что западные исследования в области развития не только бесполезны, но и вредны, поскольку они усиливают существующую динамику власти между Севером и Югом.

Ake, un éminent scientifique africain et démocrate, affirme que le modèle de développement occidental est non seulement inadéquat, mais qu'il entrave activement le progrès du Sud mondial. Il plaide pour un nouveau modèle de science sociale socialement orienté et rejette les paradigmes occidentaux. livre commence par mettre en lumière les effets néfastes du savoir scientifique sur les pays du tiers monde, où les sciences sociales occidentales imposent délibérément ou non les valeurs capitalistes et le développement des pays colonisés. Ake affirme que cet « impérialisme de la connaissance » a conduit à l'implantation de valeurs et d'institutions étrangères qui ont contribué au sous-développement du Sud mondial. Il affirme que la recherche occidentale sur le développement est non seulement inutile, mais aussi nuisible, car elle renforce la dynamique de pouvoir actuelle entre le Nord et le Sud.

Il libro, pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1979 e ora rivisto con una nuova introduzione, rivela la natura ideologica della «westeronizzazione» e i suoi effetti nocivi sul mondo in via di sviluppo. Ake, noto scienziato africanista e democratico, sostiene che il modello di sviluppo occidentale non è solo inadeguato, ma che ostacola attivamente il progresso del Sud globale. Egli è favorevole a un nuovo modello di scienza sociale, che è socialmente orientato e rifiuta i paradigmi occidentali. Il libro inizia con la copertura degli effetti negativi della conoscenza scientifica sui paesi del terzo mondo, dove le scienze sociali occidentali, intenzionalmente o involontariamente, impongono valori capitalisti e sviluppo ai paesi colonizzati. Ake sostiene che questo «imperialismo della conoscenza» ha portato all'insediamento dei valori e delle istituzioni straniere che hanno contribuito alla mancata realizzazione del Sud globale. Sostiene che la ricerca occidentale sullo sviluppo non solo è inutile, ma anche dannosa, perché rafforza le dinamiche di potere esistenti tra Nord e Sud.
Long detailed description of the plot: Social Science as Imperialism: The Theory of Political Development, by Claude Ake, is a seminal work that criticizes the dominant Western paradigma of social science and its role in perpetherating imialism and Under development in the Global South. Das Buch, das erstmals 1979 veröffentlicht wurde und jetzt mit einer neuen Einführung neu aufgelegt wurde, zeigt die ideologische Natur der „Verwestlichung“ und ihre schädlichen Auswirkungen auf die Entwicklungsländer. Ake, ein bekannter afrikanistischer Wissenschaftler und Demokrat, argumentiert, dass das westliche Entwicklungsmodell nicht nur unzureichend ist, sondern aktiv den Fortschritt des globalen Südens behindert. Er steht für ein neues sozialwissenschaftliches Modell, das sozial orientiert ist und westliche Paradigmen ablehnt. Das Buch beginnt damit, die schädlichen Auswirkungen wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse auf Länder der Dritten Welt hervorzuheben, in denen die westlichen Sozialwissenschaften den kolonisierten Ländern absichtlich oder unabsichtlich kapitalistische Werte und Entwicklung aufzwingen. Ake argumentiert, dass dieser „Wissensimperialismus“ zur Durchsetzung ausländischer Werte und Institutionen geführt habe, die zur Unterentwicklung des Globalen Südens beigetragen hätten. Er argumentiert, dass westliche Entwicklungsforschung nicht nur nutzlos, sondern auch schädlich sei, da sie die bestehende Machtdynamik zwischen Nord und Süd verstärke.

Komplonun uzun detaylı açıklaması: Emperyalizm Olarak Sosyal Bilim: Claude Ake'nin yasal Gelişme Teorisi, egemen Batı sosyal bilim paradigmasını ve onun imyalizmi sürdürmedeki rolünü eleştiren ufuk açıcı bir çalışmadır ve Küresel Güney'de gelişme altında. İlk olarak 1979'da yayınlanan ve şimdi yeni bir girişle yeniden yayınlanan kitap, "Batılılaşma'nın ideolojik doğasını ve gelişmekte olan dünya üzerindeki zararlı etkilerini ortaya koyuyor. Önde gelen bir Afrikalı bilim adamı ve demokrat olan Ake, Batı kalkınma modelinin sadece yetersiz olmadığını, aynı zamanda küresel Güney'in ilerlemesini aktif olarak engellediğini savunuyor. Sosyal odaklı ve Batı paradigmalarını reddeden yeni bir sosyal bilim modelini savunuyor. Kitap, bilimsel bilginin Üçüncü Dünya ülkeleri üzerindeki zararlı etkilerini vurgulayarak başlıyor; Batılı sosyal bilimler, bilerek ya da bilmeyerek, sömürgeleştirilmiş ülkelere kapitalist değerleri ve gelişmeyi dayatıyor. Ake, bu "bilgi emperyalizminin", Küresel Güney'in azgelişmişliğine katkıda bulunan yabancı değerlerin ve kurumların dayatılmasına yol açtığını savunuyor. Batı kalkınma çalışmalarının sadece yararsız değil, aynı zamanda mevcut Kuzey-Güney güç dinamiklerini güçlendirdikleri için zararlı olduğunu savunuyor.
وصف مفصل طويل للحبكة: العلوم الاجتماعية كإمبريالية: نظرية التنمية السياسية، بقلم كلود آكي، هو عمل أساسي ينتقد النموذج الغربي السائد للعلوم الاجتماعية ودوره في إدامة التقليد وتحت التنمية في الجنوب العالمي. الكتاب، الذي نُشر لأول مرة في عام 1979 وأعيد نشره الآن بمقدمة جديدة، يكشف الطبيعة الأيديولوجية لـ «التغريب» وآثاره الضارة على العالم النامي. يجادل آكي، وهو باحث أفريقي وديمقراطي بارز، بأن النموذج الغربي للتنمية ليس فقط غير كافٍ، ولكنه يعيق بنشاط تقدم جنوب الكرة الأرضية. وهو يدعو إلى نموذج جديد للعلوم الاجتماعية موجه اجتماعيًا ويرفض النماذج الغربية. يبدأ الكتاب بتسليط الضوء على الآثار الضارة للمعرفة العلمية على دول العالم الثالث، حيث تفرض العلوم الاجتماعية الغربية، عن قصد أو عن غير قصد، القيم الرأسمالية والتنمية على البلدان المستعمرة. يجادل آكي بأن «إمبريالية المعرفة» هذه أدت إلى فرض قيم ومؤسسات أجنبية ساهمت في تخلف الجنوب العالمي. وهو يجادل بأن دراسات التنمية الغربية ليست فقط غير مفيدة ولكنها ضارة أيضًا، لأنها تعزز ديناميكيات القوة الحالية بين الشمال والجنوب.
