Answer: D
The concept of dependency evolved in the 1960s in Latin America.
Dependency theory grew out of the work of Latin American economists and social scientists, such as Raul Prebisch and Andre Gunder Frank, who argued that the periphery's underdevelopment arises from its relation to the developed centre.
It did not originate in Europe, Africa or Asia. The theory held that the world is divided into a developed core and a dependent periphery, and that development of the centre depends on the underdevelopment of the periphery. Its home was Latin America in the 1960s, notably with the work of the UN Economic Commission for Latin America.
