Detailed explanation-1: -A country is said to have taken off in terms of economic growth if it has effectively applied radical changes to its available resources and has set forth on a path of sustained economic growth extending for decades (Rostow 1960).
Detailed explanation-2: -Stages of Economic Growth and Economic Development Still, most development economists agree that the key stages of development are related to three different transitions: a) a structural transformation of the economy, b) a demographic transition, and c) a process of urbanization.
