C) Dependency theorist

Explanation:

The dependency theory was describing the exploitation of developing or low-income countries for the benefit of the Western countries and elites in the periphery. Cash crops, such as coffee and other raw materials were bought from these countries for a low price. The land was then used for exports controlled by companies from more developed countries. In doing so the less developed countries would be less self-sufficient and rely on the more developed countries for imports such as food. Companies used cheap labor in the less developed countries to manufacture goods that were then sold on as the companies product to both developed and developing countries.
