What is the relation between occupational structure and development?
Answer:
Answer to be written in the exam:
-
The development of a country is related to the occupational structure of a country
as more the percentage of the population is involved in primary activities, it can be seen that the country is less developed.
-
A less developed country is one where a
higher proportion of people work in primary industries including agriculture, animal husbandry, forestry, and fisheries.
-
In nations where people
transition into secondary occupations like manufacturing, we observe increased development.
- A highly developed nation is one where a high proportion of people work in tertiary occupations like banking, commerce, transportation, and administration.
