چکیده

در سال­های اخیر پژوهش­های «متخصص– برانگیخته»، همچون توسعه عمودی، به­شدت مورد تردید قرار گرفته و موضوع نقش مردم محلی در پژوهش تقویت شده است. پژوهش حاضر با هدف شناخت و بررسی ارتباط خرده‌فرهنگ محلی با توسعه مشارکتی با کمک گرفتن از فنون تحقیق کیفی و انجام نمونه­گیری مبتنی بر هدف، و همچنین نظری بر فرایند تحقیق از جامعه آماری 446 سرپرست خانوار انجام شد. در این پژوهش سعی شد که با نگاهی بومی به موضوع پرداخته شود، تا بتوان به دنبال یافتن ظرفیت­ها و پتانسیل­های افراد بود و از این راه باورهای غلط را اصلاح کرد. آن‌گاه از دل باورهایی که قابلیت هموار کردن مسیر توسعه را دارند، بتوان ظرفیت­های بالقوه را از طریق توانمندسازی به فعلیت رساند و به هدف اصلی یعنی مشارکت دست یافت. در این پژوهش دو گفتمان پیشرفت و بازاندیشی مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند، به‌طوری‌که با مطالعه انجام‌شده در زمینه خرده‌فرهنگ محلی، و توسعه مشارکتی، مدل توسعه­ای ترسیم شد که گفتمان بازاندیشی بر آن غلبه داشت. در آن فرآیندی چرخه­ای به چشم می‌خورد، به­صورتی که خانواده­گرایی و محلی­گرایی به‌عنوان پایه­های مدل در نظر گرفته شده است و اعتماد اجتماعی به‌عنوان قلب و شاه‌کلید توسعه مشارکتی. به‌علاوه، عناصر توسعه مشارکتی (مسئولیت‌پذیری و اثربخشی) که در نتیجه عناصر خرده‌فرهنگ محلی به دست آمدند، در مرحله بعد به‌عنوان عاملی مؤثر در ایجاد حس اعتماد بین افراد و انگیزه پیشرفت مدّنظر قرار گرفتند. با توجه به یافته­های تحقیق می‌توان نتیجه گرفت که از دل فرهنگ و باورهای بومی و سنتی جامعه می­توان الگوی توسعه­ای مناسب جامعه روستایی ایجاد کرد. در این پژوهش از دل خرده‌فرهنگی که سال­ها مانع توسعه تلقی می­شد، این ایده مطرح گردیده است که این خرده‌فرهنگ­ها لزوماً مانع توسعه نیستند و می­توان براساس همین خرده‌فرهنگ­ها توسعه­ای را ایجاد کرد که حس مسئولیت­پذیری و اثربخشی به بار آورد. همچنین با آن می‌توان مردم را در توسعه دخیل کرد و تعلق افراد را به برنامه­های توسعه­ای افزایش داد.

چکیده [English]

Introduction
Progress and development –and Making them Possible- are the results of a special view to the world, which is indicative of the need for an appropriate culture of progress. Culture has a special significance in development and overlooking it may cause Failing all plans. Therefore, the relationship between culture and development should specifically be mentioned in developmental plans. The present study aimed at understanding and investigating the relationship between local subculture and participatory development (via a case study in villages of Kahman, Selseleh, Lorestan Province, Iran) using qualitative research techniques (such as in-depth interviews and concentrated group discussions, and observations).
 
Methodology
Qualitative methods are based on concepts such as relationship, interpretation, understanding, and human being’s daily life and the researcher enters into the world of the respondents and delves more deeply and accurately into the phenomena by understanding the systems of meanings and their interpretations of the respondents’ reactions. In this study, two types of sampling have been used: systematic sampling and theoretical sampling. Initially, the data were collected using systematic sampling because this method of helps the researcher to ask him/herself what kind of data are needed and the select the appropriate samples accordingly. The data collected in any of the forms (by interviews, observations of behavior, actions and happenings) using systematic sampling, provided the basis for theoretical sampling in the next step. In theoretical sampling, which was done on the basis of the primary results of the study (obtained using systematic sampling), in order to achieve theoretical saturation, the researcher decided what type of data were needed, about what topics, where and under what circumstances, etc. Therefore, the data were collected gradually and step by step in the process of sampling from the target population and interpretation of the interviews. In this way, 446 house holders were selected until theoretical saturation was achieved. Out of them, 40 have been interviewed; and in turn, 8 discussion groups of 4/5 households have been formed. During the discussions, the issues raised by the participants instigated a dynamic participation in the discussions. In order to form the discussion groups, an attempt was made to interview a group of strangers.
 
Results
As a result, the interview process was not static although it involved a mutual action. Surveys were also conducted in the process of the research with the sample population including 446 householders intended to address local issues from the local people’s perspective trying to find the individuals’ capacities and potentials. According to the qualitative methods for data collection and analysis of the Study, the conceptual applied framework has been combinational are; meaning that the views that guided us further towards finding the answer were utilized in this study. Accordingly, discussions related to two separate paradigms were analyzed: local subculture and participatory development. Subculture proposed by Rodgers belongs to the development (modernization) paradigm and participatory development as a novel subject is in the post-developmental paradigm. The study has addressed two discourses: development and rethought. Therefore, by studying the local subculture (in terms of family orientation, local orientation, social trust, and motivation for development) with participatory development (sense of accountability and efficiency), a developmental model has been developed over which the rethought discourse predominated and in which there is a cyclic process too. In this model, family-orientation and local-orientation have been considered as the bases for the model and the social trust as the master key for participatory development. Besides, the elements of participatory development (accountability and effectiveness) which have been the result of the elements of the local subculture; and they acted as the effective factors in trust-building among the people generating motivation for development. According to the findings, it should be concluded that the appropriate developmental models are found in rural societies within their local [native] and traditional culture and beliefs. As can be seen, in this research an idea has been produced from within a subculture which was regarded as an obstacle to development for many years. But these subcultures are not so and development can be achieved based on these very subcultures, which lead to a sense of accountability and effectiveness in people. Finally, it should be added that the phrase ‘participatory development paradigm’ mentioned in this study, is associated with two views. One is that people’s participation acts as a purpose. Second, real development is always realized by participation and public activities. Generally, based on this view, participation not only leads to development but it is an equivalent for that. There is no Doubt that, if participation in development has been considered as a logical necessity in the past, today it is among the behavioral and human necessities.
 
Conclusion
Participation is one of the confirmed human and behavioral values and carries a sense of responsibility and a conscious and free effort. The word ‘participation’ is closely related to acceptance of justice and people’s equality principle. Therefore, real development can only be achieved when it is put at the service of realizing this value and achieving this human and behavioral goal. From this perspective, participation is no longer considered as a developmental factor but a purpose that development tries to achieve it.
