Part A (4 Points)
Answer one of the following three questions in 400 - 500 words. Spend about 30
minutes on this question.
A1. Recall the theories of international development and globalization discussed in the Textbook
Chapters 1 and 2. Which theory or theories can best explain the changes described by either Hans Rosling
in the video “Don’t panic: The truth about population” or by Chris Brazier in his articles on Sabtenga
Village in Burkina Faso? Give reasons for your answer.
Hans Rosling’s documentary “Don't panic: The truth about population” contains valuable data regarding
the world’s ability to develop. He manages to convey how many factors of International Development
impact the world. He uses humour to communicate his complex theories with his audience in order to
understand this changing world better. According to Rosling, we live in a world of relentless change,
massive migrations of people in megacities, filling skyscrapers and vast slums, should we be worried or
scared? How can we make sense of it all? (Rosling, 2013). “Don't Panic: The truth about population”
portrays how further population growth will only further neglect over environmental concerns using
mainstream environmentalism, both social and economic Modernization.
Hans Rosling’s example of Bangladesh is an example of cultural Modernization. Modernization
in the cultural text refers to the transition from the past to present. The theory promotes values and
practices that continue to be passed down by generations. Family planning is evident within different
families of Bangladesh as they believe even one child is more than enough. The family of Taslima Khan
comes from a large family, however she and her spouse have decided to only conceive one child. Tasmila
is part of a “cultural shift “(Rosling, 2013) in which they are prolonging the life a child has, yet children
have become fewer. This is a result of the Western’s influence on developing countries, as he reveals the
similarities of fertility rates around the world.
