A Retreat from Development: a Controversial or Promising Paradigm Shift in Early Childhood Education
Abstract
The article presents three approaches to the conceptualisation of development as a category which
describes the dynamics of the biography of man, which the author defines as: universalisation,
contextualisation / relativism, and problematisation / negation. Emphasis is laid on a shift in thinking
about the child and childhood, to be observed in the post-structural analyses contingent on the
thought of Michel Foucault and a critique of developmental psychology which is developing in the
world, but has been absent from Poland so far. The strongest critique of both these perspectives is
directed against the standardisation measures for which individuality, specificity and diversity
become a deviation from the norm. The article shows how strong arguments showing the controversy
of development perceived in this way have been collected and how debatable the category of
development as such is.
