I found the following sentence from Corbridge interesting.
'[T]here is within postmodernism-postcolonialism a debilitating
tendency to mistake the word for the World' ('Marxisms,
Modernities ...' , Society and Space, 1993, vol 11, p. 456).

ps I find the post-impasse debate (Booth, Kiely, Corbridge,
Mouzelis, Peet, etc) in develoment studies/geography very
interesting. It sheds light on several issues: causality;
agency-structure, significance of class, etc .
