Answer:

In modern times, tall buildings, shiny commercial plazas and dazzling shopping malls are considered to be symbols of progress and advancement. We never ponder over the costly price that nature and the toiling masses have to bear for this reckless ultra-modernism, driven by the senseless concept of the growth economy.

This should prompt people to ask more questions – which they, unfortunately, don’t. For instance, should the development of India be cited as a model because it has produced a few billionaires even though more than 243 million people are living below the poverty line and more than 600 million others are struggling to lead a decent life? Should we declare the US as an advanced country for producing the largest number of e rich individuals and simply ignore the ghettoisation of Latin American and black people, and the personal insolvency of the working class due to inflated medical bills?

We need to redefine the concept of development or, at the very least, challenge it. Like any other term within the social sciences, development should also be viewed as a relative concept. For some, development may mean the mushrooming of tall buildings, the rampant growth of shopping malls and a phenomenal rise in GDP. But for others, it should be a means to access education, health, decent housing and other amenities. In a developed country, the mass majority should be able to enjoy their leisure and get involved in creative activities. Development should promote sustainable economic growth instead of lethal consumerism, which has led to the ruthless exploitation of both nature and the people.

Answer:

Development is a broad concept that includes raising people's standards of life, raising per capita income, and reducing illiteracy, poverty, and crime rates, among other things.

Developmental features include

  1. Since everyone has various goals, what one person may consider progress may not be progress for another. It could potentially cause harm to the other individual.
  2. For development, "mixed objectives/goals" were also considered. That is to say, while wealth is an essential component of growth, people also want and desire other things, such as equitable treatment, peace, good health, and literacy.

Explanation:

Tall structures, gleaming commercial plazas, and glittering retail malls are today's icons of development and prosperity. We seldom stop considering the high cost that this irresponsible ultra-modernism, propelled by the absurd notion of the growth economy, imposes on the environment and the laboring people.

People should be more inclined to do so, but regrettably, they aren't. Should India's progress be an example, for instance, given that it has generated a few billionaires even though more than 243 million of its citizens live in poverty, and more than 600 million others struggle to live decent lives? Should we disregard the ghettoization of Latin Americans and Black people, the personal bankruptcies of the working class owing to inflated medical expenses, and consider the US an advanced country because it produces the most fabulously wealthy people?

The idea of development has to be redefined or, at the very least, questioned. Development should be seen as a relative notion, just like any other term used in the social sciences. For some people, progress may entail the emergence of several tall structures, the rapid expansion of retail centers, and a meteoric increase in GDP. But for others, it should be a way to access luxuries like adequate housing, health care, and education. In a developed nation, most people ought to have access to leisure time and creative pursuits. Instead of poisonous consumerism, which has resulted in the cruel exploitation of both environment and people, development should encourage sustainable economic progress.
