BIBLIOGRAPHY | NOTES
1. Introduction
The main objective of this document is to synthesize the main aspects of the
four major theories of development: modernization, dependency, world-
systems and globalization. These are the principal theoretical explanations to
interpret development efforts carried out especially in the developing countries.
These theoretical perspectives allow us not only to clarify concepts, to set them
in economic and social perspectives, but also to identify recommendations in
terms of social policies.
For the purposes of this paper, the term development is understood as a social
condition within a nation, in which the authentic needs of its population are
satisfied by the rational and sustainable use of natural resources and systems.
This utilization of natural resources is based on a technology, which respects
the cultural features of the population of a given country. This general definition
of development includes the specification that social groups have access to
organizations, basic services such as education, housing, health services, and
nutrition, and above all else, that their cultures and traditions are respected
within the social framework of a particular country.
In economic terms, the aforementioned definition indicates that for the
population of a country, there are employment opportunities, satisfaction -at
least- of basic needs, and the achievement of a positive rate of distribution and
redistribution of national wealth. In a political sense this definition emphasizes
that governmental systems have legitimacy not only in terms of the law, but also
in terms of providing social benefits for the majority of the population. (1)
