Question

Answer 1

Assuming it is a TRUE and FALSE question. The answer is --

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The dependency theory states that the global poverty may be partially attributed to the fact that countries with low income is been exploited by the countries of high income.

It describes the flow of resources or raw material from the periphery of the poor and underdeveloped country to the core of the rich and developed country. The developed and high income country flourishes at the expense of the low income countries.

Thus the dependency theory states that the poorer countries are literally trapped in the cycle of structural dependency on the high income countries.

Hence the answer is FALSE.
