It illustrates the issue of development moved to the foreground and the scale of the problems elites faced. A number of broad approaches to the issue of development can be identified; these are large comprehensive theories and they offer a characterization of the condition of being underdeveloped and policy advice about how to organize change so as to achieve development.

From this mix it offered the new elites of the new countries of the Third World a way of thinking about development, which would let them quickly join in the life style of the rich countries modernization.
