You believe in promoting economic growth and modernization to improve living standards and reduce poverty.
Developmentalism is a political ideology that emphasizes the role of the state in promoting economic growth and development. It emerged in the mid-20th century, primarily in response to the economic challenges faced by developing countries after the end of colonial rule. The ideology is rooted in the belief that state intervention is necessary to stimulate and guide economic growth, particularly in nations that are struggling to develop their economies.
Developmentalism is often associated with the economic theories of Raul Prebisch and Celso Furtado, who argued that developing countr…

What do you imagine a day in your life would look like if your town's economy dramatically improved?
@9JQ6NZG3mos3MO
I think a major change that I would see is people might be more happier in general.
@9JQ59YD3mos3MO
I believe that life would be much better, as many daily activities would become cheaper, and would improve things such as the environment/pollution.
@9JQ4T7M3mos3MO
I think everything would be much better and everyone would be much happier if they were able to all live the life they would like. If nobody had to worry about money anymore, life would be a lot more stress-free and overall better.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
How would you feel if your favorite phone brand could no longer be imported due to local production policies?
@9K9RFZVPeace and Freedom3mos3MO
Developmentalism in the international economic context can be understood as consisting of a set of ideas which converge to place economic development at the center of political endeavors and institutions and also as a means through which to establish legitimacy in the political sphere.
I will feel disappointed because I bought it for that imported stuff.
@9K9R8X53mos3MO
Pretty pissed off. It would force people's hands into markets they're not familiar with and ruin the consumer experience.
@9K9R6753mos3MO
I know those kids getting worked, but I need apple products
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Should individual financial success be sacrificed for the sake of collective economic development?
@9H7SYBT6mos6MO
No I feel like if you worked hard you should earn the money you worked for when someone else did nothing and don't deserve the money they would receive.
@9H7TQYJ6mos6MO
Some argue that individual financial success acts as a potent incentive for innovation, entrepreneurship, and hard work, and sacrificing this prospect may diminish the motivation for individuals to excel and contribute to economic growth. Critics of sacrificing individual financial success stress the significance of personal freedom and the right to enjoy the fruits of one's labor, asserting that individuals should be free to pursue their economic interests without undue interference. Additionally, opponents argue that a thriving economy depends on a dynamic private sector, suggesting that allowing individuals to pursue their economic goals is essential for efficient resource allocation and innovation.
@9H7T35W6mos6MO
NO. Seriously. Being in a capitalist economy is good for us. We don't need our individual success to be taken.
@9H7VJH86mos6MO
collective economic abundance will ensure every person is successful, rich, happy, healthy, and at peace.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Is it more important for a country to be economically independent or to have strong international trade relations?
@9H7Q2576mos6MO
A mix of both. Both have benefits that make the country way better.
@9H7QP5G6mos6MO
Economic independence would be better, but both are desired. The former supports the latter in my opinion. Being strong economically provides stronger footing for trade deals and resistance against unfair deals.
@9H7QKF26mos6MO
Strong International trade relations are important but, a country should also hold a strong independent economy.
@9H7QTYF6mos6MO
i feel like it is more important for a country to be economically independent because if they are always relying on other countries to help them in situations, then they are never going to advance and or grow with their country.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
As a student, are you willing to adapt your career plans to meet the needs of your country's development goals?
@9H7T4R56mos6MO
I want to be able to study and have a career in something that I want to do
@9H7TQYJ6mos6MO
Absolutely not. I am 100% sure, no one in this country will be sacrificing for me so why would I sacrifice my dream of becoming someone that would be important to this nation anyways?
@9H7SNY6Peace and Freedom6mos6MO
No, as a student I am not willing to adapt my carreer plans to meet the needs of my country goals.
@9H84NYL6mos6MO
No I am not willing to adapt your career plans to meet the needs of your country's development goals.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you think a country should invest in modern technology even if it means job losses in traditional sectors?
@9H7VRTZ6mos6MO
I think we should invest in modern technology to lose the physical/human work force required for certain jobs, such as labor/sweat shops. However, we must also make sure that the jobs lost are replaced, such as if we lost work to robotic hands doing labor, their should be jobs for maintenance of these robots
@9H7SNKC6mos6MO
No, because then there will be more people without jobs.
@9H7SQWP6mos6MO
I don't really know because some people needs jobs
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
If your quality of life could improve, would you endorse more government control over economic decisions?
@9H7SHXB6mos6MO
No, because I think the government has enough control already over our economic decisions.
@9H7TFMS6mos6MO
No, because I think the government has enough control already over our economic decisions.
@9H7VRTZ6mos6MO
I would to an extend. If they control decisions that impact my freedom of expression, then no.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How would you react if a new local industry created jobs but also caused environmental concerns in your community?
@9HCYYKZ6mos6MO
the creation of jobs through a new local industry is a positive development for the community, emphasizing the importance of economic growth and job creation
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Would you be willing to pay higher taxes if it meant better infrastructure and public services resulting from economic growth?
@9HJZL295mos5MO
Yes. Taxes that go to privatized or underdeveloped services will likely decrease the cost of living associated with privatization, and at least will improve access and overall quality of life on average (especially for those who were entirely unable to access such services before).
@9HJZDWP5mos5MO
Absolutely. I already pay a butt ton in taxes, and it goes towards things I don’t agree with.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How do you think your daily life would change if your country focused solely on self-sufficiency instead of global trade?
@9HDNG6J6mos6MO
I think our country would be better off, and our resources could become more clean without needing to be shipped from international waters. We could be fully independent, and even grow communities.
@9HDMZLR6mos6MO
I feel like we need to focus on ourselves and stop butting our heads into peoples problems
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
What would you be willing to give up for your country to become more economically developed?
Deleted6mos6MO
No, my country is more than just an economic zone, it is more than just an idea. I will not compromise the integrity, wellbeing, the happiness, or the makeup of my nation for the sake of monetary gain.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you believe that a nation's development can be achieved without negatively impacting other countries?
@9H7TPFNRepublican6mos6MO
I believe that we can develop our countries without negatively impacting other countries. There is no need to mess with other countries when we are working on our own.
@9H7T7956mos6MO
No, but processes can involve neutralizing effects.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How do you feel about prioritizing long-term national economic strength over immediate personal economic benefits?
@9H7S9726mos6MO
Based on my observations and analysis, I have come to the conclusion that their expertise and resources can be highly beneficial in tackling the challenges we are likely to face in the future. With their support, we can leverage their knowledge and skills to develop effective solutions and strategies that can help us achieve our goals.
@9H7S4K86mos6MO
Long-term help shows that anyone in need of help will have it due to how much they are making and how much they deserve to own.
