Although an interesting write-up, I hesitate with anything that dichotomizes complex systems into only 2 options, as there are many spots on the spectrum and continuum of economic means and balance. Although "developing world" is true, and I can see the visual of rich people behind fences and poor people in the streets, there is actually a lot of gradation in our economic system(a) that does not support a "two party approach." I find it very intriguing that most researchers on the American continent split thinks into binary systems, like organizing your wardrobe into left socks and right socks, it really glazes over a lot of fidelity.
