GRADING
This paper will be graded on the following criteria:
(1) organization of paper and instructions outlined in this document
(2) quality and completeness of the analysis,
(3) quality and accuracy of the data collection efforts,
(4) overall quality of the presentation (appearance of text and tables, orderliness, etc.), and
(5) quality (grammar, spelling, clarity, etc.) of the writing effort. A paper with many grammar, spelling, and typing errors will get, at most, a "D" grade, regardless of the content. I strongly recommend that all students have their papers read by other people.
Written Assignments - Student is required to complete a written assignment highlighting published current economic events or issues as they relate to theories learned in this course. Basically, I want the student to realize and explain the economics that exist all around us. The paper must include a graph used as an explanatory tool of the economic principle presented by the student. A summary, topic, outline or abstract is due during the week of the midterm. This submission is not graded. My intention is to catch any problems or wrong directions early so that you can recover or get initial feedback on your ideas. Consider this a free test run. The paper will be due during the week before the final (end of module 11). Early submissions of written assignments are always accepted. Instructions for preparing these assignments are as follows:
1. Each paper's intention is to be a short commentary or analysis on the most recent economic commentaries or economic reports from the supplemental resources or references. The focus of these assignments is to relate and analyze current events to basic principles of macroeconomics covered in this course. It is not acceptable to just regurgitate statistics. The student?s paper should indicate that he/she has a clear understanding of theory learned in class and its application/operation in the 'outside world'.
2. Option - In an event the student comes upon an interesting subject content relating to that student's work or any other non-economic or business publication that can be explained in light of the theories learned in this class, the student may be able to substitute this as the basis article. The student may want to discuss this article and ideas with the instructor prior to embarking on this option.
3. Papers should be submitted to the instructor in the class website via private email function in .doc format as an attachment. Standard margins apply. Papers should contain proper documentation of the article(s) or other references used. If direct quotes are used (not contained in the article), appropriate footnotes, endnotes, or parenthetical citations must accompany the quotes. Since a major part of your paper will come from published sources, internet references, etc. There should be sufficient evidence of where the information for your paper originated Paper length should be a few pages - short enough to qualify as a commentary but long enough to adequately address the subject. Typically, six to eight double spaced pages are sufficient. Papers are graded on quality of content, not quantity. Standard APA English rules apply and clarity is important to your grade.
4. Paper grade will be broken down by the following standards: Content 50%: reflection, explanation, implications of economic theory in practice, Organization 20%: References, Bibliography, Works Cited, etc., Grammar and Spelling 10%: If you use Microsoft Word which has a spelling and grammar tool, it should be difficult to misspell a word, use the incorrect word, or incorrectly use the written English language. (This is even rarer if you reread your assignment before submitting), Readability 10%: ease and flow of ideas of your presentation, and Format 10% how you set the paper up, with Title page, Thesis (or hypothesis), body (loaded with references) and a conclusion.
------------------------------------------------------------
PS: Everything revoles around a good summary, topic, outline or abstract (your choice). So please be sure to include it with the assignment.

It is an economic development class; I need an answer for 4 essay questions, but the answer MUST BE from:1. the text book which is "Economic Development" by Michael P. Todaro, 2.the articles in our professor?s web site. The web site address is: www.odu.edu/tbezmen , then click on Econ 754/854- Economic Development and then click on readings, then you will find several articles that you need to use for answering the questions.
Answer each question separately. If it is possible in your answer always try to make an argument and give a support for it by explaining your point view and by giving examples. The professor will look at how well did you answer the question and how strong are your arguments.
The questions are :
1.Describe the ?recipe for economic growth? in the context of a traditional, neoclassical economic model, such as the Harrod-Domer model. What is economic development and how is it typically measured? Explain why economic growth may be insufficient (or counterproductive) for the economic development of certain nations. According to Adelman, development theorists and policymakers have repeatedly made three major errors. Briefly discuss these ? three fallacies in development theory? and the resulting implication for the success of future of economic policy.
2. In the context of traditional economic theory (i.e. Lewis 2-sector model, demand and supply analysis) describe the process and benefits of rural-urban migration. With reference to existing conditions in some developing countries, explain three reasons why rural-urban migration may result in more problems and populations.
3. According to the UN, there has been ? a broad evolution of attitudes about the role of women in development and the unacceptability of continuing to treat discrimination against women as a sovereign cultural matter outside the purview of development agencies.? The primary motivation for this change is the connection between the role of women and the problems of income inequality, poverty, unemployment, and population growth in many countries. Explain on this view by describing the role of women and how it relates to successful economic development (or the lack thereof).
4. Using the price-incentive model of the labor market, explain how unemployment can be eliminated (or at least reduced) by ?getting prices right.? Is it appropriate to use this model to examine both the formal sectors of the economy? (What conditions prevail that affect the results of the model?) How is the use of appropriate technology related to this discussion?
Please write an economics IA of the following article: http://news.alibaba.com/article/detail/business-in-china/100237200-1-still-rolling%253A-china%2527s-gdp-hits.html

*The term paper asks us to delineate economic issues underlying a particular topic related to the area of growth and development.
- I listed possible topics you could write about for each model. You could pick one of the models you are most familiar with and write about the example and relate it to the model.
Possible topics could be about economic issues and relate that economic issue with one of below model (I personally think number 1 could be more interesting if there are resources for the example)
1) Big Push (ex. South Koreas president Jung Hee Parks new policies and their impact on economy and creation of chaebols ?" for example, you could talk about how his policies led to coordination in workers education effort and entrepreneurs R&D effort, leading to a big push.)
2) Activation of modern industry (which basically talks about needing enough funding or skilled labor to activate an industry- and perfect adoption of advanced technology, weak preference bias or small modern capital investment barriers) ?" for example, you could talk about how South Koreas IT industry could take off (what policies/factors led to enough funding in Koreas IT industrycurrent situation of Korean IT industry and its economic problems)
*For help, I listed some of the characteristics of the above 2 models
1) Big Push:
coordinated investment is the basis of the concept of the big push.
-When many sectors have simultaneously adopted increasing returns technologies, they would all create income as well as demand for goods in other forward and backward linked sectors
-such income creation and demand enhancement would then enlarge the market, leading to industrialization.
The arguments are therefore rooted in:
-scale economies
-interactions between firms and across industries
-interactions between demands and supplies
Thus, there is a scale barrier to overcome, which requires big push ?" the force of big push could be:
-history-dependant
-expectations-driven (self-fulfilling prophecies)
Optimization/Equilibrium outcome
-entrepreneurs R&D is increasing in workers education
-strategic complementarity: workers education effort, v, and entrepreneurs R&D effort reinforce each other
-Equilibrium: high, low or multiple equilibria
-coordinated worker investment in education and entrepreneur investment in R&D can generate a big push over the required threshold Vc, giving a high-human capital and high-output equilibrium
-lacking such coordination, the equilibrium features low-human capital and low-output
-expectations are crucial:
-if workers expect entrepreneurs to invest in R&D, they exert V(high)>V(critical)
-if entrepreneurs expect workers to exert V(high)>V(critical), they invest.
2) Activation of a Modern Industry: Wang and Xie (2004)
The key issue to be addressed is to explore the important channels through which a modern industry is activated. They key features considered are:
-production in the modern industry requires high-skilled labor in addition to new technologies
-the modern sector needs industrial coordination to overcome the scale barrier concerned by big push
-the modern goods are not necessary for survival
Production technologies:
-traditional industry: Y1 = (A1)(K1^a1)(L1^1-a1)
-modern industry: Y2 = (A2)(K2^a2)(L2^1-a2)(K-bar^1-a2)
-key features:
-L1 can be either unskilled or skilled, whereas L2 must be skilled
-A2>A1: modern sector is more technologically advanced
-a2>a1: modern sector is more capital intensive (manufacturing vs. agriculture)
-there is an uncompensated positive knowledge spillovers in the production of the modern goods represented by K-bar as in Romer (1986)
-as a result of the presence of uncompensated positive knowledge spillovers, there is a scale barrier in the sense that the modern sectors production is not as effective when its size is too small ?" that is, the coordination issues in big push theory can be captured
-The modern sector is not operative if either K2 = 0 (insufficient funding to be allocated to modern production) or L2 = 0 (unattractive wage for skilled labor to work in modern sector)
-Industry 2 can become operative only if it is sufficiently productive to attract funding
-the modern sector remains inactive with:
-insufficient funding or skilled labor
-imperfect adoption of advanced technology
-strong preference bias
-large modern capital investment barriers
-this above condition is necessary but not sufficient, because it considers only capital but not labor allocation, which is driven by the relative wage of modern to traditional industry
-in order for the modern sector to attract skilled labor, W2/W1 must exceed 1, that is the skilled can earn higher wages in the modern sector than working as unskilled in the traditional sector
-this condition is more likely to hold true with
-better modern technology (A2)
-weaker preference bias (theta)
-when this condition is met, the labor markets are segmented
-all the unskilled work in the traditional sector (L1=N1)
-all the skilled work in the modern sector (L2=N2), earning W2>W1
-In summary, we have
-stage 1: W2/W1 is smaller than 0: funding is insufficient and industry 2 is unprofitable
-stage 2: W2/W1 is bigger than 0 but smaller than 1: the relative wage is too low for skilled workers to participate in industry 2
-stage 3: W2/W1 is bigger than 1: the modern industry is activated

"Students will write a final research paper (8-10 pages, double spaced). Students should choose two or more countries and compare and/or contrast each countrys political and economic strategies during similar economic crises or challenges. Alternatively, students can choose one country that experienced two different economic crises and compare with the countrys similar and/or different political responses to each crisis. Extra reading and library research beyond the course syllabus will be required. A full bibliography should include at least 10 academic sources, such as books or academic journals (no online sources).
Students should use a standard bibliographical style (e.g., Chicago or APA) to list all of the works used and cited. A term paper should be double-spaced, written in 12-point font (Times New Roman) and with 1-inch margins. Make sure that the final paper has a title and that each page is numbered. "
The above should give the details but I can help clarify if needed. 10 sources (books, academic journals). Online sources can be used BUT they CANNOT count towards the 10.
In addition it says
"Books or academic journals will be counted as proper academic sources. No online sources (including newspaper articles and magazines, such as the Economists or The Times) will be accepted. The CIA World Factbook will not be counted as valid academic reference, although you can use it as additional reference. If you do not keep this guideline, your grade will be downgraded. "

Flaherty Comfortable Business Will Replace Stimulus
October 23, 2010, 9:04 AM EDT
Oct. 23 (Bloomberg) -- Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said he is comfortable that an increase in business investment will allow his government to end its stimulus measures in March as planned.
Speaking in a Bloomberg interview, Flaherty, 60, said he has seen an increase in investment, particularly in machinery and equipment since the second quarter of the year. Weve helped stimulate that with tax breaks.
The Bank of Canada lowered its economic growth forecasts on Oct. 20, and Flaherty has faced increasing political pressure to extend some fiscal stimulus measures past their March 31 deadline.
Im comfortable where we are, Flaherty said. We see increasingly the private sector moving in to provide the demand that the public sector has been providing with peoples tax dollars.
The central bank cut its estimate of economic growth for this year to 3 percent from 3.5 percent, and for 2011 to 2.3 percent from 2.9 percent. The expansion will shift from being driven by consumer and government spending to exports and business investment, the bank said in its monetary policy report.
Canada last week joined central banks in Brazil, Malaysia and Australia in keeping rates unchanged to gauge the global recovery and avoiding a divergence with the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank, where policy makers have signaled they may offer additional stimulus.
Exports a Weakness
Shipments abroad are clearly a weakness in our economy, our exports to the United States in particular, Flaherty said. We always wish the Americans well in their recovery.
Flaherty contrasted his governments effective stimulus measures with those in the U.S., where economic data suggest the stimulus has had less of an impact. The U.S. has its own challenges, Flaherty said, including a weaker economy and higher unemployment and still a terrible situation in their housing market.
A successful U.S. recovery is important for Canada and the rest of the world, he said. As much as we talk about the emerging economies, the largest economy in the world remains the United States, he said.
Relying on U.S.
Canada relies on the U.S. for 63 percent of its trade, and the countrys dollar reached parity with its U.S. counterpart last week for the first time since April. U.S. Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said Oct. 15 that new stimulus may be warranted because inflation is too low and unemployment is too high.
That could put fresh pressure on exporters hurt in the global recession by lost U.S. orders of manufactured goods such as autos and paper.
Flaherty said this weekends talks had gone some way to reducing worries that the global economy could be hurt by currency and trade tensions. Im modestly less concerned, but Im still concerned, he said. We made some progress this weekend but theres more hard work to do before G-20 leaders meet in Seoul next month.
We certainly see the relative inflexibility of certain Asian currencies, which remains a serious issue, Flaherty said. I hope well see movement there as a result of the discussions this week.

Canadian finance ministers to target debts and deficits in new year
KAREN HOWLETT and BILL CURRY
Kananaskis, Alta.?" From Tuesday's Globe and Mail
Published Tuesday, Dec. 21, 2010 12:16AM EST
Last updated Tuesday, Dec. 21, 2010 8:39AM EST
Canada will enter 2011 on a different path to economic recovery from the United States, trading stimulus spending for a renewed focus on debts and deficits.
Finance ministers pledged on Monday to insulate the country from further global economic shocks by making deficit and debt reduction a top priority, although their unity was less certain on the subject of whether Ottawa or Ontarios fiscal picture is of greatest concern.
Federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said Canada needs to get back on the strong financial footing that helped it weather the global economic recession better than many other countries. What he is seeking to avoid is the spectre of the debt crisis that is gripping many European Union countries.
The situation remains fragile, with concern over mounting public debt in many countries and its implications for long-term growth, Mr. Flaherty said at a news conference in Kananaskis, Alta., after his day-long meeting with provincial and territorial finance ministers.
But he sought to strike a more conciliatory tone with Ontario by backing off his calls last week for all the provinces to balance their books by 2015. Now, there is no firm date, just a commitment to shed red ink in the medium term, he said.
Were all on track.
Ontario is projecting a deficit of $18.7-billion for fiscal 2010-11 and does not expect to balance its books until 2018.
Well see who gets to balance first, Ontario Finance Minister Dwight Duncan told reporters.
He noted that Mr. Flaherty has continually understated the size of the federal deficit ?" pegged at $55.6-billion for 2009-10 ?" and said his federal counterpart should do a better job of getting his own affairs in order before telling others how to manage theirs.
But Mr. Duncan is alone on this front. Virtually every other province expects to erase its red ink by 2015, and Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador are on track to post surpluses in the current fiscal year.
Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney, who was also at the Rocky Mountain resort for the meeting, reinforced the importance of addressing debt and deficits, Alberta Finance Minister Ted Morton said.
Im not going to be a fear monger, but I think when both the Governor of the Bank of Canada and the Finance Minister say this is an important issue, everybody should listen, Mr. Morton told reporters.
He himself expressed concerns that Ontario, which accounts for 40 per cent of the Canadian economy, could drag down the entire country and said Canada could head in the same direction as the European Union.
Douglas Porter, deputy chief economist of Bank of Montreal, does not share that view. He questioned the urgency of imposing a new era of spending restraints just as the United States embarks on a stimulus plan to help its ailing economy.
With fiscal policy diverging between Canada and its largest trading partner, Mr. Porter said, the United States will likely see stronger economic growth, at least in the short term, than this country.
No country wants to be anywhere close to where countries like Ireland or Greece or even Spain or Portugal have found themselves, Mr. Porter said. But, frankly, I dont think Canadas in the same hemisphere.
THESE ARE THE ARTICLES I AM SUPPOSED TO USE TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW.
QUESTION 2
How does Canadas Federal system affect economic policy in the recovery?
In answering this question, you might consider the following (though you should NOT treat them as a series of short answer questions):
What is the most important economic priority for Jim Flaherty, the Federal Minister of Finance? Why is it important to him?
What is the most important economic priority for Dwight Duncan, the Minister of Finance for Ontario? Why is it important to him?
How might Flahertys policies increase Canadian competitiveness? How might Duncans policies increase Ontarios competitiveness?
What are the advantages to having different economic policies at the Provincial and Federal level? Disadvantages?
QUESTION 3.
Choose a non-government business in Ontario that you know well. Evaluate the policies you have discussed above in light of their impact on this business.
Which economic policies are more likely to impede their recovery? Why?
Which economic policies are more likely to support their success in recovering from the recession?

Dear Writer,
I am applying this 40 pages just for chapter 2 and chapter 3, please read my notes carefully then let me know what do you think about them. please let me know if you need more time for your writing.
I am asking you to help me for writing the current literature review for PhD dissertation that titled in (private investment and economic development in Iraq).
First of all, I made the temporary outline which mentioned bellow for the current literature review of this thesis, I don't mind if you improve it, this literature contains four chapters.
I am planning to write all the thesis with you. Chapter by chapter, which should be based on the objective of the proposal that has done by me.
1- This literature review should consist of 90-100 pages and include four chapters.
- the first chapter consists of the two sections.
-First section it has to address the theories which are related to this topic of this thesis (private investment and economic development in Iraq), then we have to write about the nature of these theories, what are the reasons to chose these theories we have to carefully to investigate which of these theories can be related and applied on our further work.
-second section will address the empirical studies what they say about Investment and economic development, please avoid to just summaries some articles, I need critical work you can know more from the guide for literature review that I will send it later.
this chapter has done by one of your writer Betty, but I am still not happy with this, I have made some extra comments about other theories that related to the subject. It will be great If you could help me with this chapter and make it perfect.
2- Second chapter should be about (the determinants of the private investment in the developing countries)
- first every section construction should have introduction, main body and conclusion.
- then in this section the writer should carefully address the determinate of the private investment in the developing countries, then write new topic about the determinants of the private investment in the non oil developing countries refer to the some example countries, what factors can influence their economy and why. later investigate and address the factors can influence the private investment in the oil rich countries , then we should identify the factors can revive and influence Iraq's private investment and through which economic development can be achieved explained carefully.
3- Chapter three should addressed to the role of public investment on the private investment , in which field the public investment can encourage private investment and help to create friendly investment climate in the developing countries.
- we need to address the role of the foreign direct investment on the private investment and economic development in the developing countries. how can FDI help to encourage private investment and how it helps to achieve economic development in these countries.
- Economic and Institution Policies for Stimulating Private Investment in the Developing Countries
- what are the most important reforms has done recently in order to encourage private investment in the developing countries. with refer to the economic reforms which have done by some developing countries, they have succeed to encourage and increase the rate of private investment to GDP and market oriented strategies.
chapter four (assess and evaluate the nature of private and public investment and economic development in Iraq) this chapter will address all necessary topic .
-we need to address that why private and public investment are poor in the Iraq economy.
-what can be done to speed up economic development in the Iraq.
-in which sectors should private investment get active in the case of Iraq's economy.
what kind of the polices can help and improve the private investment in the Iraq , I would like to confirm that all depend on the writer skills how to address these topics in a creative way.
I just wanted to confirm that if the writer see the number of the pages is not sufficient just let me know.
additional point to the writer to write the literature in the creative way not just summarising the paper we have got our construction to write the literature I will send to the writer to help him how to write this literature review. it will be very great if writer try to connect and link all section that give the whole meaning. for example we will use compare and contrast in the view. I do not want the literature to be like essay.
all these notes were provided just for the literature review.
I want to ask the writer to give the clear details about the methodology when the literature has done
which methodology can be applied in this dissertation according in this literature and what are the variables we will assess them in the methodology chapter?

This is an assignment for Financial & Monetary Economics module of an MBA course.
The writer MUST choose ONE of the following topics to write the assignment (Please choose the most relevant topic to your knowledge):
1. In the context of monetary policy, explain the policy of quantitative easing and explain how it differs from the more conventional conduct of monetary policy.

READ
McConnell, Brue, Macpherson; Chapters 3, 4, 5, and 6
WRITE
A single four-part paper (of no more than 200 total lines) that summarizes the contents of McConnell, Brue, Macpherson Chapters 3, 4, 5, and 6. Label each section clearly, and order them by chapter number.
For each of the assigned chapters, write an accurate summary (no more than 50 lines) of the message(s) that the authors are conveying.
Note: Each chapter ends with a summary. You must write your summary in a manner that convinces me that you read the whole chapter and not just the authors summary of it! This will require your summary to contain significantly more detail than does theirs. Attachment of appropriate graphs (with explanations) will help you to accomplish this.
REMEMBER: Your job is to tell me what you believe that the authors told to you, but DO NOT quote them and DO NOT use simple rearrangements of their own words (because neither exposes whether you understand the material). What you write (employing diagrams when appropriate) must faithfully reflect what the authors wrote and must not be distorted by any of your own attitudes or opinions. Carefully check your spelling and grammar; they account for 25% of your grade.
Follow ALL of the composition rules in the Writing Guide as well as all instructions included in the syllabus sections REQUIRED PAPERS and PAPER GUIDELINES, and combine these four summaries into a single Word (or Rich Text) document. Cover the chapters in ascending order and precede each section with an appropriate label (Chapter 3, Chapter 4, ).
PAPER GUIDELINES
1. Prepare your papers as Word (or Rich Text) documents, double spaced, one inch margins, and at least 12 point type.
2. Explicitly label the beginning of each section of your paper (for example, Chapter 3).
3. The papers will vary in length but should not require more than ten pages.
4. Write your paper in a manner to be both understandable and informative for a reader who has only limited knowledge of the paper subject.
5. Do NOT begin your paper with an overview, and do NOT end it with a summary. Those would just waste your limited space and the readers time. Also, there is absolutely no value in simply mentioning topics that the authors discussed. I want your interpretation of what it is that the authors wrote about the key topics in the chapters. So, jump right in and use every bit of your paper writing your own highly-condensed (but not devoid of detail) version of that topic content.
6. NO QUOTATIONS: The additional concentration required to translate what you have read into your own words will SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCE the learning outcome. Also, it will give me great feedback relating to the effectiveness of the authors presentations. Because quotations provide no clue as to what they mean to you, your papers are to contain no quotations. This includes definitions; they too must be rewritten in your own words. NOTE: Any sentence or phrase that contains five or more words in the same sequence as in the text or other source constitutes a quotation and must be enclosed in quotation marks (to avoid committing plagiarism), but quotes are not allowed!
7. It is NOT OK to compose your papers by simply (and probably mindlessly) rearranging the same words as in textbook sentences! For instance DO NOT just use sentences taken from the textbook in which you have replaced every fifth word by a synonym.
8. GRAMMAR PROBLEM DEDUCTIONS: Care enough about the quality of your work to proofread and correct it. Remember, I do expect you to use the grammar and style checker to find and correct problems. I also expect that you will back this up with a careful proof reading and rewrite (if necessary) of your papers. I will mark syntax, spelling, and other grammatical errors that I notice. No college-level paper should have more than a few.
9. Some people write to impress, using complex sentences filled with exotic terminology. Do not do that. Write to communicate efficiently and effectively. Except for economics terminology use middle-school level vocabulary, write simple sentences that require little punctuation, and use your best formal writing style.
There are faxes for this order.
