    The document outlines the "tripod of underdevelopment" which it claims leads to a cycle of underdevelopment. The three legs of the tripod are low levels of living, low self-esteem, and limited freedom. It then shows how low levels of living can lead to low income and low labor productivity, perpetuating the cycle of underdevelopment. The core values of development that could counter this are described as sustenance, self-esteem, and freedom from servitude.
