DVA1501 - Unit 1 - Introduction to
Development Studies Questions and
Ansswers
1) Concept of development - answer - Development is the opposite of poverty
- Development and poverty are relative and subjective terms.
- Development concepts are value-laden (our values create the meaning of
development and poverty).
- First vs. Third world (Economic) - Rich vs. Poor - Economic growth
- North vs. South (Geo-political) - Political
- Developed vs. Developing (Neo-economic) - Modernisation
- SDGs vs MDGs
2) First vs Third World (and others) - answer - Classifies status of wealth and
economy.
- Classifies stability and health of the country or region.
- USA, UK and Japan and other western-bloc countries.
- G8 countries
- First vs. Third (First = Developed, economic powers of colonial heritage, Third = not
involved in global politics, outside of political tenses of cold war, experienced horrors of
colonialism and is fearful of neo-colonialsm).
- North vs South (More wealth is positioned in the northern hemisphere in comparison to
the southern hemisphere.)
- Developed vs. Developing (Developed = Wealthy, good infrastructure, population
declination, stability in health and economy/ Developing = opposite)
3) Advantages and disadvantages of North vs. South - answer - First vs. Third -
Capitalist vs Socialist vs Everyone else - Excluded third world because of fears of
colonialism
- Developed vs. Developing - Modernisation from IMF and World Bank
- North vs. South - Global statistics of development
- Advantages = We can see what stage each country was in, however it was primarily
based on economies, location and political affiliations
- Disadvantages = It set unreasonable development goals outside of the context of
nations. Did not take into account the ambitions and contexts of nations. Did not
acknowledge historical issues/implciations.
- Countries in the south are perceived as undeveloped and backwards.
- Australia shows us that this classification is entirely geographically inaccurate. Most
developing countries are in the south.
