40、ts tell us there is a link between private lives and social forces. An outstanding example of such a link is the contrast in life chances between people in developed and in less developed countries. A child born in, say, the United States or Switzerland is not a better or more deserving person than

41、one born in Ethiopia or Brazil. Yet because of social forces beyond individual control, each child faces the prospect of living out a lifetime under utterly different material conditions. Why should this be? What can account for the fact that some societies have become heavily industrialized and eco

42、nomically advanced, while others are changing so much more slowly? Social scientists have offered two different explanations. One emphasizes a universal but uneven process of modernization and economic growth; the other focuses on a worldwide system of political and economic inequality. Some social

43、scientists view development in terms of modernization, a process of economic, social and cultural change that facilitates the transition from pre-industrial to industrial society. Modernization theorists claim that the various countries of the world are converging on a basically similar social type,

44、 the modern industrialized society. Some 250 years ago, the developed countries of today also had rudimentary, pre-industrial economies, but because they modernized relatively quickly, they now have productive economies that offer high living standards. During the same period, however, the poor coun

45、tries have been slow to modernize. Differences in development, therefore, are largely the result of uneven modernization; but as “modern“ features spread from the developed to the less developed countries, they too will follow the path to industrialization and affluence. What kinds of change does mo

46、dernization entail? Some modernization theorists emphasize a change in individual psychology. They claim that people in the developed societies are more likely to have a work ethic, a desire for achievement, a willingness to defer gratification, a sense of control over their destiny, a strong sense

47、of individualism. In contrast, a lack of ambition, an orientation toward the present, a fatalistic outlook, and a weak sense of individualism are said to be typical of people in more traditional societies. (A) Other modernization theorists emphasize sweeping structural changes in society. (B) Tradit

48、ional societies are more likely to have an extended family system, in which kinship obligations encourage people to remain, physically and socially, where they started. (C) Similarly, modernization involves such features as heavy urbanization, extensive schooling, advanced technology, low population

49、 growth, a legal-rational political system, and a range of sophisticated services such as efficient transport, banking and communications. (D) On the whole, these features are lacking or inadequate in less developed countries, where government is usually authoritarian, the population is predominately rural and ill educated, and the necessary services are not in place. Other social scientists view development in the context of the world system, a network of unequal economical and political relationships among the developed and the less developed cou
