Discuss the Wallerstein’s world systems theory of social development. 

Wallerstein's World-Systems Theory offers a framework for understanding social development in a global context. It challenges traditional views of development that often focus on individual nations or regions, instead emphasizing the interconnectedness of the world and the unequal structures that shape development. Immanuel Wallerstein, a sociologist, formulated this theory in the 1970s as a response to the limitations he saw in modernization and dependency theories. His approach focuses on the world economy and its division into core, semi-periphery, and periphery zones, analyzing how each contributes to social development.

At the heart of Wallerstein’s theory is the idea that the world is an integrated economic system. He argues that the world is not a collection of isolated nation-states, but a unified economic system where the development of one region is tied to the exploitation and underdevelopment of others. This interconnectedness is most visible in the global economy, which is structured in a way that benefits some regions while disadvantaging others. According to Wallerstein, the development of the "core" countries—those that are economically dominant—is facilitated through the exploitation of resources and labor from the "periphery" and "semi-periphery" regions. These regions are locked into an unequal relationship that hampers their ability to fully develop.

Wallerstein identifies three main categories of nations or regions in his world-systems model:
