As a core nation we talk about freedom and equality yet there is no equality in certain areas. For example men get higher salaries then we do. Men have more opportunities and a higher chance of getting certain jobs over women. In peripheral nation men work and women do not. Women do the cleaning, cooking, and laundry. In the United States it seems as to someone would trust a male doctor over a female doctor. In the peripheral countries women also do all of the cleaning, cooking, and laundry. In certain countries women are not allowed to attend school. There are a lot of similarities, but also differences, because as much as women do not seem to be as hard working as men, the opportunity is there for women to try and be successful.

For example technology, we have created phones, tablets that can be taken with you everywhere instead of a laptop, when we transitioned from a huge computer to a portable laptop. Modernization creates jobs, opportunities and more goods. Modernization is developing.
Dependency theory is where the poor countries (peripheral nations) sends its goods to rich countries (core countries), yet they continue to be poor. We get most of our technology, cars, coffee, and clothes from other countries. The reason for the trade is because a lot of these peripheral nations are in debt with core nations, so they put their people to work for little to no money.
In conclusion, I would use dependency theory as a global inequality. We talk about poverty and how we want to fix it yet we are sending our jobs to other countries for cheaper labor and not paying these countries anything, yet America is getting rich off of their goods. People from Brazil are malnourished and poor, yet they grow and pick our coffee, tea etc. Most of our cars, clothes, and shoes are made in other countries at sweat shops. It is rare to find anything that is made in America, and if it is made in America it cost three times as much as getting something made in a different
