The document describes the Rostow Model of economic growth proposed by American economist W.W. Rostow in 1960. The model suggests that all countries progress through 5 stages of growth: traditional society, preconditions for take-off, take-off, drive to maturity, and high mass consumption. It also shows how the employment structure shifts from primarily agricultural to industrialized to service-based at each stage.

The model assumes that all countries start at the same level and with the same resources, population, climate etc. While capital is needed to advance beyond โthe traditional societyโ - often this capital arrives in the form of a injection of development aid. Debt repayments can delay and even prevent a country from reaching โtake offโ.

The model underestimates the extent to which the development of some countries in the past was at the expense of others through colonization and imperialism.
