Resumo de Recurso
INDIRECT CONTROL/NEO-COLONIALISM
Argument that direct colonial rule has been replaced with indirect neo-colonialism
why?
Developed countries want political influence and to support their businesses
TNCs want to develop competitive advantage by exploiting resources or workers
International Organisations increase their influence through unsustainable loans, structural adjustment policies and trade barriers
SAPs = IMF or World Bank plans to help countries to develop economically with privatisation of services. contracts won by MEDC businesses
eg water supply - privatisation in Bolivia -
improved infrastructure and supply but companies work for profit (AguadelTunari 16% profit) quarter of peoples income goes on water
Arguments against neo-colonialism
many developing countries have internal political/religious/war issues eg Sudan, Zaire (now DR of Congo)
Sudan is a known source of human trafficking for both forced labor, sexual exploitation and child soldiers
ongoing conflict between the Sudanese government and the rebel groups within Darfur
As of 2008, over 290,000 civilians had been forced to flee their homes and their lives in search of safety
Many NICs and RICs have developed following independence eg Asian Tigers since 70s and China, India since 80s
Corruption is sometimes present so fianance and aid often diverted eg Mugabe in Zimbabwe
foreign aid money it has received has either been used for foreign investments or stored in oversees accounts
