Resumo

A identidade racial em relação ao campo do desenvolvimento internacional é um tópico surpreendentemente não examinado dentro da antropologia, embora amplamente explorado em relação às sociedades ocidentais multiculturais contemporâneas e às relações históricas entre diferentes partes do mundo. Neste artigo, exploro raça e brancura em relação ao desenvolvimento internacional, enfatizando a importância de analisar como a construção histórica da identidade racial continua a moldar as relações atuais de pessoas pertencentes a diferentes localizações geográficas. Para apreender a importância do desenvolvimento na vida visual e cotidiana das pessoas em diferentes partes do mundo, emprego o termo “paisagem do desenvolvimento”. Para isso, adapto a ideia de Arjun Appadurai (1996) de globalização como constituída de diferentes “paisagens” e, além disso, me pergunto como a “paisagem do desenvolvimento” é racializada.
