Economic development is a key element of growth and sustainability of a country, as well as of equity, prosperity and well-being of its population. Recently the world has witnessed rapid economic growth of two Southeast Asian countries: China and Vietnam. oth of the countries faced major challenges for the growth of their economy, they survived these challenges well and proved themselves to be the success stories of development. Vietnam continues to follow the footsteps of China, which is already one of the strongest economies of the world. Vietnam is working to transit from low-income countries to middle income ones whereas China is trying to work its way from being a middle-income country to a high-income country. Comparing these two countries with one ahead of the other in economic prosperity especially with regards of industrialization will give clarity in understanding what it takes to become developed form being an under-developed country….

Economic Impacts of Tekopora - Theory

The Tekopora program was launched in 2005 to provide cash payments, as a means of help low income Paraguayans escape poverty. Basic economic analysis suggests the following outcome expectations are reasonable, in the areas of per capita income, consumption, poverty reduction and school attendance. It should be expected that per capita income and consumption would both increase. The reason for this is simple. As a cash transfer, Tekopora is just putting money into the hands of the recipients, which inherently increases their ability to spend. That alone should see an increase in per capita consumption.

Flowing from that, Tekopora should also result in an increase in overall per capita income in the country. However, that effect should be much lower. The reasons is simple -- Tekopora is not a big program. The program initially served 4500 households, with payments ranging between $18-36 depending on the….

The author presents a poorly defended opinion in The Economist article "The Case for Globalization." The article boldly posits that "international economic integration is...the best of many possible futures for the world economy." According to the author, globalization is the only feasible panacea for poverty and political disenfranchisement. To dismantle world trade would entail "unparalleled catastrophe for the planet's most desperate people." However compelling these statements may be, they are not backed up by any quantifiable data. Ironically, the author accuses anti-capitalists and protestors of globalization to "explain the facts," without doing so him or herself.

Globalization could not be the "best of many possible futures." Global politics are already at the mercy of corporate control; one need only look at the example of Central America to see how the United States in particular. The consequences of globalization can be witnessed in the mass disenfranchisement, political instability, and economic deprivation….

This dependence on the rainfall to multiply makes malaria to have a particular cycle of the infections in these tropic regions. The dry and the wet seasons usually alternate, hence the malaria outbreaks usually follow the rainy seasons.
It is also worth noting that the intensity of the malaria transmission is tied on the type of mosquito vector that is in a given region. It is true that the anopheles mosquito is responsible for transmission of malaria, but it has been noted that those mosquitoes from the sub-Saharan region prefer taking their blood meal from humans as opposed to cattle or other animals, hence this leads to a more serious infection pattern than those that draw blood meal from animals.

Therefore, the temperature that is conducive for malaria, the high number of mosquitoes and the particular vector that is prevalent in a region all referred to as Malaria Ecology (ME) can….

Capital stock in Vietnam has increased manifold in the past decade, and has fuelled the country's strong economic growth.
Vietnam does not have extensive natural resources. Most of the country is heavily farmed. The country is self-sufficient in oil, gas and hydroelectricity however, which is a benefit. Crude oil is a major export commodity. Much of the other export commodities are farm-based (coffee, tea, rubber, rice).

Vietnam's technology and innovation is nascent. Telecommunications infrastructure is improving. Cell phone and Internet usage is rapidly growing. However, the country is a follower in terms of technological innovation. The education system does not support strong innovation. Development in other areas, such as pharmaceutical or manufacturing, is slow.

Vietnam's government can take several steps to address the deficiencies among the four wheels. They can improve technology and innovation in a couple of ways. One is to invest more in infrastructure. Another is to invest in education….

(CED, 2006)
The work entitled: "Rights based approach the Millennium Development Goals: The UNDP and Hurist Experience" states that the commitment of the UNDP is characterized by "the promotion and application of the human rights based approach to development dates from the issues in 1998 of its policy of integrating human rights with human development." (2003) it is believed that this policy option will "derive additional strength from the system wide application by UN agencies of the 'common misunderstanding on a human rights-based approach to development cooperation." This work goes on to say that: "The goal of human development is to create an enabling environment in which people's capacities can be enhanced and their range of choices expanded. Human rights approaches add the element of duties and obligations as well as the ability to claim rights." (CED, 2006) These goals are very important due to their methodology which is an….

Economic development of Eastern and Western Europe over the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries obviously differed, but not to the extent that historians or economists have frequently imagined. Put simply, the economic histories of Eastern and Western Europe are frequently viewed according to either region's differing political organizations, with the capitalist West opposed to the Communist East, but in reality, the period of time defined by the rise of the Iron Curtain represents less of a competition between two ideologically opposed economic systems and more of a bubble in time, where the economic development of either region briefly parted ways before rushing back together at the end of the Cold War. The same kind of oligarchical capitalism that has tended to define Western Europe reins in Eastern Europe, and the differences are matters of style, rather than substance. By comparing and contrasting the economic development in Eastern and….

All these situations impact the overall morale of the staff members, and as such their levels of performance and commitment to the employers. The scenarios are more dramatic for the people who are actually downsized, but the negative impacts are also observed at the level of the remaining staff members, who are presented with fewer opportunities for personal and professional development. The International Labor Office argues that in times of crisis, employers invest less in the training of the staff members, once again limiting their development, as well as the overall development of the firm.

A second relevant source in the search for an answer to the posed question is represented by Andy Kilmister's the economic crisis and its effects. Unlike the previous source which draws on the economic crises in Mexico (1994-1995) and Indonesia (1997-1998), Kilmister focuses on the economic crisis commenced in 2008 in the United States. At the….

Indeed, no room was allowed for alternative viewpoints regarding the situation. The crisis then occurred during July of 1997, when the Thai baht was floated. It is rather interesting that the very same players predicting continual prosperity, have moved to the exact opposite of their previous opinions, now profiting from the collapse and gloomy predictions for the future of the Asian economy.
The role of the World Bank was thus significant in the failure to predict that NIC crisis during the late 1990's. Its opinions were held in such high regard that little could be done to sway it. As seen above, however, the Bank was also caught up in the cycle of illusion perpetuated during the time by the various elements mentioned above. Respected economists, journalists and other influential entities served to sway the Bank's opinions and to make almost impossible any contradictions to the contrary (aker, 1996: 5).

Economic Development and Trade
In an era of increased globalization and advancements in technology, it has become increasingly important for all of the nations of the world to keep bringing improvements in their economic infrastructure and to expand their businesses on the global scale. It has been observed that without a reasonable level of economic development any country cannot gain a competitive position in the world market. This is the dilemma faced by most of the developed nations of the world.

In this paper we will examine as to how economic development of any country promotes the trade and business and how free trade and liberalization in trade policies, on behalf of the governments, help the businesses to flourish and effectively compete in the world market. We have covered the issues related to the economic development of the developing nations and has discussed the aspects that have caused hindrance in the economic….

The article concludes by describing the investments in Dutchess County and says that "no comprehensive assessment of the total costs of AED" (12). This includes the statement that "many different agencies and organizations have contributed resources of staff time and funding" (12). It is suggested that the AED efforts should have been more controlled. The fact that the input of different agencies is quite vague suggests that there is not enough control over the process. ithout having a clear knowledge of the inputs, it is not possible to determine the return on investment. The achievements of AED are also stated in vague terms, with no quantified results given. This makes it impossible to decide whether AED has been an economic success.

Economic Development and Pollution
Globally, economic development is taking place at an unprecedented rate, as undeveloped and underdeveloped nations, often with the aid of more advanced countries, are industrializing and urbanizing. hile this development means prosperity and general advancement for the population of the growing nation, it also contributes substantially to an already severe level of global pollution and damage to the environment. ("Transport and Sustainable Development in the ECE Region")

In undeveloped countries, pollution is generally encountered as unsafe water, usually due to stagnation in extreme heat and drought conditions. Insofar as it may be caused or worsened by human interference, generally this effect is limited to human or livestock feces being introduced to the standing or ground water.

Once industrial development takes place, the process of pollution affects air, ground and water. Plants and factories produce suspended particulates, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone and lead. (Edgmand et al., 1996)….

Executive Summary Myrtle Beach is a seaside resort community. It is a destination city and provides tourism services year-round. It has grown exponentially in recent years and is among the top growing cities in the country. It is in need of economic diversification, infrastructure updating and expansion, and job development.
It has benefitted from state tax-friendly codes but conservative politics could be an issue in enhancing the city’s profile and attempt to appeal to diverse populations. It has benefited from federal policies like FEMA and FHA, which provide emergency response and affordable housing funds.
A strategy to address its economic development needs include: 1) keeping taxes low, 2) offering tax-based incentives to attract business, 3) addressing zoning issues to separate commercial and industrial facilities in the downtown area, 4) applying FHA funds to provide affordable housing for residents in blighted areas, fixing up the blight, and attracting more investment, 5) increasing revenues for….

Economic, Developmental and Humanitarian Priorities in Yemen Yemen is a country that has experienced a period of prevalent destabilization, particularly since September 2014. The recent civil war has had tremendous negative impacts on the wider Yemeni population since it has undermined the effective operations of the country’s governance systems and functions. The violence from the recent widespread destabilization has generated devastating effects on Yemeni’s developmental progress, economic growth, social integration, and generated a major humanitarian situation. The international community has been on high alert as the situation in Yemen continues to worsen. As a result, rebuilding or developing Yemen has become a major priority, especially in the context of humanitarian, economic, and developmental aspects.
One of the key areas in developing Yemen is security given that the recent crisis has contributed to poor security conditions and vicious fighting that result in a severe humanitarian problem. As of 2017, one of the security….

Research Proposal: How Natural Resources Exploitation and Government Instability Impact Economic Development in the Democratic Republic of the CongoThe TheoryNatural resources exploitation and government instability negatively impact economic development in the developing world.The MethodA qualitative, case study approach will be used to examine the relationship between resources exploitation/government instability and economic development. The case will be that of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In this case, the level of resources exploitation and government instability will be measured using different indicators along with economic data on a range of indicators such as GDP growth, foreign direct investment, and employment levels in order to identify trends.The CasesThe cases will include pre-independence Congo to establish a baseline and then examine the Mobutu era (1965-1997), the Civil War era (1996-2007), and the era of ongoing instability post-2007. The cases are representative of the population addressed by the theory in terms of each one….

Smart phones and other mobile technology have the potential to be real game changers in terms of economic development in developing countries.  Prior to the advent of mobile technology, developing countries were limited in economic development because they lacked the infrastructure to hasten that development.  However, with information technology and mobile connectivity increasing, economic development can occur in areas that are otherwise isolated because of a lack of developed infrastructure.  In addition, while economic development is a definite bonus of these technologies, there are some concerns about how they impact communities on....

Ireland was poor for a long period of time due to a number of historical, political, and economic factors.

1. English colonization: Ireland experienced centuries of English colonization and control, resulting in land confiscation, forced tithes, and economic exploitation. The English prioritized their own interests, which hindered Ireland's economic development.

2. Penal Laws: The Penal Laws, enacted in the 17th and 18th centuries, restricted the rights of Irish Catholics, preventing them from owning land, holding public office, or practicing their religion freely. This discrimination limited upward socioeconomic mobility for the majority of the Irish population.

3. Agricultural practices: Ireland's reliance on subsistence agriculture....
