Mahjoub rejected the dominant Western lens of development, primarily modernisation theory, which reached theoretical apotheosis in Rostow's stages of growth required for economic take-off.
“He rejected the dominant Western lens of development, primarily modernisation theory, which reached theoretical apotheosis in Rostow ' s stages of growth required for what he called economic take-off (Rostow 1956).”

The modernisation theorists saw development as akin to a biological system, evolving to ever-higher stages, with a belief in the omnipotence of reason capable of mastering and conquering nature, and techno-economic growth at the model's heart, while redistribution was off the agenda.
“The modernisation theorists saw development as akin to a biological system, evolving to ever-higher stages. At the core of their notion of the role of man within this system was a belief in the omnipotence of reason, capable of mastering and conquering nature. Techno-economic growth was at the model ' s heart. Needless to say, redistribution was off the agenda.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
