Lecture 1: Global inequality and development
Slide 3: Hunters and Gatherers
absorbed by the capitalist society. No need for material possessions in my places like Africa,
Middle East and Central Asia. The biggest division in society is sex and gender: men are the
hunters and women are the gatherers.
Slide 4: Pastoral and Agrarian Societies
Land is not cultivated enough, so they will migrate. Also do not cumulate material
possession. More divisions: through trade- animals, for other food and weapons. Societies
develop when food is provided constantly. Eat to survive. 6000BC emergence of larger
societies; civilisation.
Slide 5: Non industrial or traditional civilisation
Larger than other types of societies above. Set up their food crops near river banks: helps
with growth of food. Egypt the first known successful civilisation. Collapse of empire in
Rome was because they overstretched themselves, but empires in South America is down to
colonisation (lecture 5).
Slide 6: Industrial societies
Agrarian societies rely on animal or human power rather than electricity or steam in these
societies.
Slide 8: Agricultural workforce in non industrial countries in 2011
Although India is a fast growing community but still 51% are involved in agriculture whereas
Britain only have 1% in agriculture; we import food in mass produce and rely on factory food
too.
Slide 10
Transportation and communications were vital in order to create nation states. Political
systems to enforce the law; keep everyone in line. Industrialisation is not just the way we
live our life; it is about economic, political strength too.
Slide 11: 1st, 2nd, 3rd world countries
Development theories use these terms in their models. EU, USA, Australasia and Japan were
the first to develop industrial societies: laissez faire approach. Second world industrial
countries did not plan for it. Places like China have a 5-year plan for the economy to
develop. Third world countries are what is left. Second world does not exist anymore.
Slide 14: Newly Industrialised countries (NICs)
More systematically planned. Attracting foreign money
