Both Rostow's and Marxist theories of development focus on economic growth and transformation of societies. They both emphasize the importance of industrialization as a key driver of development. However, Marxist theory critiques capitalist systems and highlights the role of class struggle in shaping development outcomes, while Rostow's theory is more linear and stages-based.
Walt Rostow's birth name is Walt Whitman Rostow.

Rostow raises 5 stages of economic grow which are the traditional theory, preconditions for take off, take of stage, high mass consumption and drive to maturity respectively. With his stages Rostow was therefore stating that every country will follow those stages and its the very same stages that Africa need to follow with the help from the developed countries, so basically according to Rostow Africa is still developing its probably still in the early stages of development hence in the next coming centuries Africa will be like one of the developed countries, therefore it is the internal factor limiting Africa's development.
