Why are some countries wealthier/more developed than others?
Draw on the readings from this class to describe and assess at least three different theories of development and under-development.
Explain what each theory does well, and what it fails to explain or account for. You may ground your essay by describing the development process in a specific country, and assessing how well different theories do in explaining your country’s trajectory, or you may write a more general account of the strengths and weaknesses of different theories.
