Answer 1

One of the most important theories of global inequality is dependency theory which suggests that the core countries or developed nations create a sense of dependency in the developing and poor countries by promoting their technology, business, products and services there. This would mean that they would use those countries as markets from where the developed countries would benefit while exploiting the labour and resources in those countries. This would lead those countries to depend on everything thus, would lead them to unemployment, poverty and unhealthy life. The developed countries would again exploit this condition by marketing their products and services thus would gain from that situation. This practice would make the rich countries richer and would make the poor countries poorer.
