Development paradigms defined
A “Development paradigm” is a specific (codified, recognizable)
modality to achieve development comprising:
• A “vision” regarding a (desirable or likely) future state of a
socio-economic system, often materialized through
“storylines”;
• A set of objectives, to be achieved to concretize the vision;
• Selected assumptions regarding the way a socio-economic
system “works” (who does/will do what, why, how, for how
long, often comprising key cause-effect relationships;
• A set of policies (interventions, actions) aimed at achieving
the desired objectives.

Questions for the working groups
1) Visions and storylines. How do you see your country (or groups of
countries) in 25 years? Describe in few words two plausible “stories” (one
more optimistic, the other more pessimistic), keeping into account both
domestic and external factors.
2) Current and future functioning of the socio-economic system. What are
the main features of the socio-economic system of your country (or group of
countries)? Describe what are the current and future “engines” of
development. (Who is doing what and how to make these engines work?
What is the role that external factors may play? Is the situation drastically
going to change in the medium-long term? )
3) Prospects for food security. Which prospects (challenges) do you see for
Food and Nutrition Security in the short, medium and long run? Can you
identify possible dos and donts to ensure FNS in the long run? Explain,
possibly with reference to the features of the socio-economic system.
