Rostow’s Stages of Development
5
First Stage—Traditional Economy Economy based on primary activities Per capita income very low No new technology Low production Largely subsistence based economy Ex.--Afghanistan
6
Second Stage—Preconditions for Takeoff Commercialization of agriculture—turning agriculture into a business Exploiting raw materials for larger profits Investment in infrastructure begins (roads, electrification) Ex.--Colombia
7
Third Stage—Take Off Lots of foreign investment comes in (money from companies from other countries) Country gets outsourced jobs Country begins industrialization Country still largely agricultural, but becomes more urbanized Ex.--Mexico
9
Fourth Stage—Drive to Maturity Technology diffuses throughout the country Way fewer people in traditional economy, increase in manufacturing Increased in skilled labor, better jobs Increase in education Ex--Chile
10
Fifth Stage—Mass Consumption Finally, high per capita income Leads to mass consumption-people buying lots of goods Service based economies Education and skill levels very high Ex.--USA

Rostow vs. Wallerstein Rostow—Countries move through these stages as they develop (capitalism good) Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is good to allow countries to industrialize Wallerstein—Core countries exploit periphery countries, periphery countries are not improving (communism good)
