ABSTRACT This paper addresses the disconnection between current analyses of global development and 21st-century developmental realities. It argues for a reworking of the development sciences on the basis of ‘transformation analysis’, attending, in particular, to those phases in longer-term social change that it characterizes as periods of ‘critical transformation’. Taking ‘the global’ seriously as an analytical category, it argues for an innovative development science capable of application in both the ‘developing’ and ‘developed’ worlds, and thus of yielding more appropriate practical and policy guidance. The paper briefly explores the empirical utility of transformation analysis by attention to the recent development histories of Hungary and Malaysia.

重大变革与全球发展：新分析框架的材料

摘要本文解决了当前对全球发展的分析与21世纪发展现实之间的脱节。它主张在“转型分析”的基础上重塑发展科学，尤其是参与长期社会变革中的那些阶段，这些阶段被描述为“关键转型”时期。它以“全球”作为认真的分析类别，主张一种创新的发展科学，该科学应能够在“发展中”和“发达”世界中应用，从而产生更适当的实践和政策指导。通过关注匈牙利和马来西亚的最新发展历史，本文简要探讨了转型分析的经验效用。
