This portion of the class explored the many theories and concepts
that are foundational to international development studies. These include modernization/modernity,
world systems, colonialism, dependency, developmentalism, capitalism, neoliberalism, structural
adjustment, institutional reform, and others. In your view, which one of these ideas best explains the
current levels of poverty and social inequality we see in the world today? In your answer, please
discuss the idea in depth by drawing on works by particular development theorists, argue for why
your chosen idea offers the best explanation, and provide relevant examples from readings/lectures.
