Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

State-led development is a strategy to promote economic growth that includes such policies as government coordination of private sector investment, forced savings, and preferential treatment to certain industries regarded as essential for national economic development.
This path is taken by poor countries that seek to develop their economies as rapidly as possible. Stateled development strategies are less concerned than social democracy with questions of inequality and redistributionfor example, Japan, South Korea, and China do not have particularly large welfare state policies that protect the economic and social wellbeing of the poor and focus most on growing the economy.
