Explain the relationship between modernization and dependency
What will be an ideal response?
Some argue that the development of the more advanced modern nations impedes that of newer nations or channels it in directions that are not necessarily beneficial to the less developed societies. The dominance of the developed nations leads, for example, to one-crop economies. Peasants give up subsistence agriculture and trading in local markets and they are transformed into a class of landless rural laborers. The less developed society as a whole is dependent upon the more advanced nation as a market for its one crop.
