PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT IN EU-AFRICA RELATIONS 89
(1988: 439), for example, has explored how 'development' discourses
have brought' problems' into being by constructing certain social issues as
falling within the legitimate purview of donors. Cox (1981: 144), mean
while, working broadly within a neo-Gramscian analysis of international
hegemony, has considered the 'fit between power, ideology and institu
tions'. He has emphasised the significance of ideological narratives in the
maintenance of power within core-periphery divisions. More recently, as
mentioned above, Wilkinson (2009: 598), from what he terms a 'critical'
historical institutionalist perspective, has examined the ' crisis discourse' in
the WTO and the ways in which this has discursively compelled devel
oping countries to acquiesce to further rounds of trade liberalisation.
Kothari (2001: 142) in similar fashion has critiqued the discourse of'par
ticipatory development' and, with reference to Foucault, has considered
participatory narratives as a means of entrenching donors' control over
the lives of'the poor'.
Within this critical tradition, it is possible to explore how donor PSD
discourse has been used to ' encode' legitimating moralities within donor
institutions' developmentally questionable economic engagement with
former colonies (Bernal 1997: 448). This requires attention to the ways in
which PSD discourse perpetuates donor power through analysis of how, as
Van Djik (1993: 249) states, discursive formations may entail 'support,
enactment, representation, legitimation, denial, mitigation, or conceal
ment of dominance'. In addition, it is necessary to recognise the way in
which legitimising PSD narratives, in this task of concealing or rationa
lising dominance, can construct conceptual images that bear little resem
blance to the social 'reality' that they claim to represent. Articulating
this point, Fairclough (2005: 6) emphasises that 'discourses include
representations of how things are, and have been, as well as imagina
tions — representations of how things might or could be, should be ...
[discourses may act as] projections of possible states of affairs, "possible
worlds"' (emphasis added).
It is necessary to stress that these possible worlds may be illusory — in the
sense that they portray sanitised or stylised accounts of how systems ought
to operate yet fail to accurately reflect existing social relations. These
illusions may be also be strategic in that they work to publicly claim that
normatively rightful states of affairs do (or will soon) exist in a manner that
veils existing social and economic inequalities within operating systems.
It is necessary to consider these strategic illusions and veiling functions of
discourse fully when assessing PSD instruments. Attention to discourse can
illustrate how PSD instruments provide a veritable 'Rosetta Stone'
through which donors' pursuit of rapid market-opening in developing

Note: The finances of the European Investment Bank's (EIB) Investment Facility (IF) are not included
since they are not strictly directed to capacity-building in indigenous ACP business sectors as per the
pro-poor rationale of PSD. Instead EIB IF monies provide de facto subsidies for European commercial
ventures in ACP countries. These investments do not assist ACP domestic entrepreneurs to develop
business capacity but instead often contribute to the crowding-out of domestic ACP businesses under
EU monopolisation of lucrative emerging sectors (Langan 2009: 423). In many cases the projects are
based in the mining sector and have been heavily criticised for their regressive impact upon both
workers and local communities in ACP states (Counter-Balance 2008). Bracking (2009) provides a
convincing and detailed analysis of the 'predatory' interventions of development finance institutions,
such as the EIB, in low-income countries. The FLEX scheme is also not included for lack of
reliable data.

opportunities ... most of the poor reside in rural areas, where the em
ployment effect is very small'. This lack of trickle-down to Madagascan
citizens owes much to the EPZ model of textiles operations that bestows
low tax rates upon foreign investors, limiting the contribution of busines
prosperity to the wider citizenry through the generation of government
revenue conducive to the funding of national welfare services.
Meanwhile, the 'development' contribution of low-waged, export
focused textiles operations is highly questionable even in the context of
the direct 'beneficiaries' of private sector expansion, that is, the textiles
employees. As mentioned, average wages in Madagascan textiles firms are
very low and currently remain around US$2 per day, with recent wage
increases mainly benefiting male management rather than the majority
female labour force. These low wages, moreover, are likely to persist given
the 'large reserve unskilled labour force and continued high turnover in
unskilled textile jobs' in Madagascar (Nicita 2006: 22). Further under
mining the 'development' potential of Madagascar's export-driven textiles
plants, many female labourers not only find that wages are not sufficient to
meet their own human needs, let alone those of their family dependents, in
stark contrast to the pro-poor image of wealth filtration inherent in PSD
discourse, but also experience regressive workplace conditions. On
worker in a Belgian knitwear and embroidery company located in
Madagascar, for example, complained:
I make jumpers using a machine, but I don't have a protective mask. I can
normally make five jumpers, but when my boss tells me to make nine, I can't do it
and I sometimes have to work until 10pm. I earn MGF 252,000 [about 22 Euros]
per month. It's very little, as my rent costs MGF 150,000. I can no longer afford
rice or meat, and I have to walk to the factory because I can't afford the bus ticket
(ICFTU 2004: 37).
