启蒙运动的科学和技术观念对帝国主义和殖民主义的努力至关重要。它们代表了以欧洲为中心的发展议程中的现代化和进步;后来，它们又成为后发展和后殖民批评的中心对象。虽然后发展办法往往将土著和地方知识浪漫化，但最近的一些发展倡议又重新将（全球）科学和技术作为发展的解决办法加以美化。本文批判性地与这些关于科学和技术的叙述，并介绍（后殖民）科学和技术研究（STS）作为一个角度，挑战这种二元的方式处理科学和技术在发展背景下。通过这样做，它有助于最近关于科学和技术促进发展的作用的辩论，并为理论倾向的发展地理学提供了新的灵感。
Enlightenment notions of science and technology have been crucial to imperial and colonial endeavors. They have come to stand for modernization and progress in a Eurocentric development agenda; later on, they have turned into the central objects of post-development and post-colonial critiques. While post-development approaches tend to romanticize indigenous and local knowledges, some of the most recent development initiatives return to a glorify (global) science and technology as the solution for development. This paper critically engages with these narratives about science and technology and introduces (postcolonial) science and technology studies (STS) as a perspective that challenges such binary ways of dealing with science and technology in development contexts. By doing so it contributes to recent debates about the role of science and technology for development and gives new inspiration for a theoretically inclined development geography.
