Next define the terms dependency and underdevelopment in the terms of the essay, note underdevelopment is not the same as undevelopment, the two terms are different. Underdevelopment refers to a lack of resources and technological and economical sustainability, undevelopment refers to a presence of refers to the little use of present sustainable resources.
Then find Caribbean countries to support your answer supplemented by the use of present day events eg the IMF agreement with Jamaica
