It began as a traditional society, with many indigenous people with their own trade networks and beliefs, in very early times when Britain took it over it was used for agriculture and the export of natural resources like fur and timber, but as it rose in Rostow ranks, also rose in independence and became its own country eventually rising to the fifth tier of Rostows Development Theory. ]]> 2022-04-05 11:54:00 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130498066 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130505574 South Africa rose up in society to the fourth tier of Rostow's Development by skipping the traditional stage as it was colonized by Great Britain before it could even begin development and once it was colonized was use for mineral exportation, because South Africa has an abundance of natural minerals. ]]> 2022-04-05 11:59:33 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130505574 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130508945 Canada was one of the first countries to sign and ratify the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women. It is a leading country in gender equality, which is probably part of the reason it has evolved so much in Rostow's economic development. ]]> 2022-04-05 12:02:10 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130508945 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130514349 South Africa is in the process of being equal and is increasing as the years go on. The main cause of inequality in the country is: poverty, illiteracy, and unequal education opportunities. This is why they have yet to reach the fifth stage of Rotow's development. ]]> 2022-04-05 12:06:02 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130514349 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517007 South Africa has a GDP per capita of $13,600]]> 2022-04-05 12:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517007 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517132 Canada has a GDP per capita of $48,400]]> 2022-04-05 12:07:56 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517132 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517221 Canada's main industries: logging and energy industries]]> 2022-04-05 12:08:01 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517221 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517342 South Africa's main industry: mining.]]> 2022-04-05 12:08:05 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517342 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517428 Canada's HDI: .929]]> 2022-04-05 12:08:09 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130517428 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552135 South Africa's HDI: .709]]> 2022-04-05 12:30:52 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552135 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552224 Canada's maternity leave: 15 weeks plus 35 weeks of parental benefits]]> 2022-04-05 12:30:55 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552224 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552324 South Africa's maternity leave: 121 days. ]]> 2022-04-05 12:30:59 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552324 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552400 Canada's gender pay gap: $.89]]> 2022-04-05 12:31:02 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552400 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552530 South Africa's gender pay gap: between 23%-35% difference.]]> 2022-04-05 12:31:06 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130552530 8614726 https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130565499 Rostow's model doesn't uphold any more due to advances in technology and industries that allow countries to pass through different stages or be in between two different stages. Most countries that are traditional might also have aspects of transitional causing us to believe that these countries cannot be grouped into such small labels. Countries also can trade with each other much easier now, due to increases in transportation between them. This ease in trade closes the gaps between differing levels of countries making Rostow's theory almost obsolete now. ]]> 2022-04-05 12:39:11 UTC https://padlet.com/8614726/4c8t3h9cat2xmtmq/wish/2130565499
