About global development flashcards
GoConqr OriginalWhat the Global Development flashcards cover
These decks approach the unit through terms, questions, theorists and case studies. Politics of Poverty includes absolute and relative poverty, while Aid Project - Case Study asks about an aid project and how it is funded. Other decks cover gender, development measurements and theories.
Choose a starting point
For an introduction to terms, start with the deck on global development terminology. It includes concepts such as core nations, peripheral nations and colonialism. If you want to work through questions on development measurements, try World Development, which includes the Human Development Index and GDP per capita.
For a closer look at a theory, Modernisation Theory includes questions about Rostow and Parsons, as well as criticisms. World Systems Theory also includes criticism alongside its account of Wallerstein's ideas.
