    Solution

    Unbalanced Growth – Hirschman: He said all sectors cannot grow at the same time in poor countries. So, focus on key sectors first to push others to grow. Critical Minimum Effort – Leibenstein: He explained that poor countries are stuck in a “low growth trap.” A big push (minimum level of investment) is needed to start continuous growth. Creative Destruction – Schumpeter: He said new inventions and businesses replace old ones. This process destroys the old but creates progress and growth. Stages of Growth – Rostow: He described 5 stages of growth from traditional farming society to modern industrial society with high consumption.
