De-development is the idea where rich countries need to lower their consumption in order for poor

countries to catch up with them. In the article written by Jason Hickel about ‘de-develop,’ the Economist
Peter Edward argues that, instead of pushing poor countries to “catch up” with the rich ones, rich
countries should be thinking ways to “catch down” with the poor countries. The

idea of de-development is not just to help the poor countries to catch up but also to avoid the

overconsumption of resources that might put our planet and environment at risk. De-development

is a big advantage for other countries since it will help the economy grow.

However, rich countries might disagree with the idea of de-development due to the fact

that they won’t see it as an advantage but an unfair idea that will lead them to question it. Other

rich countries will oppose the idea with the mere fact that it is unfair for them to lower their

consumption without an exchange for it. It is not fair for other rich countries to give other countries

something they do not work hard to achieve. Although it is possible for rich countries to agree with

the idea of de-development, it always comes with a catch. Rich countries will mostly agree to the

idea in exchange for something that will benefit them.

It is important to achieve the idea of de-development because it will help the economic

growth of poor countries. Through de-development, poor countries are able to conquer the

economic drought they are experiencing. They will recover from it and provide more opportunities

in the economy. It will help increase the socio-economic status of the people living in a poor
country. Due to the economic growth of the country. It can provide a more secure and safe place

for its people. De-development will also help reduce overconsumption of resources. Because of

this each country will get enough resources that they need. Also, due to the decrease of the

consumption of resources other poor countries will have a healthier environment and a happy

living. Reduction in the consumption of resources will also reduce the chance of putting our

environment and planet at risk.

De-development is an effective way to overcome the global crisis we are facing right now.

Through it we will be able to sustain natural resources for the future generations. Poor countries

will be able to increase their economic growth, avoid overconsumption of resources, and help

reduce environmental risk. The idea of de-development might be hard to achieve yet possible. It

is possible to achieve with the cooperation of the rich countries to help poor countries and the

environment. Rich countries must understand that de-development won’t make them poor, all we

need is for them to slow down their consumption so that other countries will get enough resources,

a safe environment to live and have a healthy and happy living.The idea of de-development is not just to
help the poor countries to catch up but also to avoid the overconsumption of resources that might put
our planet and environment at risk. De-development is a big advantage for other countries since it will
