Why does the development gap exist?
- Level of industrial development: some countries have few industries and rely on a narrow range of industrial opportunities.
- Reliance on primary prroducts: some countries rely on a narrow range of primary products to earn money. The price of these products can fall and there is nothing they can do.
-Lack of technology: makes ift difficult for them to compete with other countries and they have to do the work manually which takes more time.
-Using resources to survive: effort is spent on gatering food and water so less time can be spent on the development.
- Lack of power: MEDCS use massive amounts of power.
-Nature of Trade: poorer countries rely on exporting basic goods for income but then have to purchase very expensive goods from abroad.
