The four phases of modernization proposed by economist Walt Rostow in 1960 are:

"Pre-condition": or need for an improvement in the way a particular activity is being done in society. The "pre-condition takes off": Efforts targeted to assess this need start, including the production of raw materials and knowledge developments. "Take-off": Knowledge previously created during the latter phase is diffused and adopted by the masses. "Maturity": The development has reached a peak where it is common knowledge and the impact over society has already occurred.
