Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Modernization theory is an approach to understanding global poverty and inequality and

is based on the belief that countries that are less developed are held back by traditional

values and beliefs. From this perspective, economic development can be achieved by

values and attitudes that are similar to those in high-income nations. A corollary is that

economic growth occurs most rapidly in a capitalist economy. Modernization theory is

associated with the functionalist perspective in sociology.
