This page details the relationship between women's education, development, and various geographical constraints affecting national progress.
Highlight As GDP increases and more girls receive education, fertility rates decrease while economic productivity rises through increased female workforce participation.
Example Landlocked countries like Malawi face significant trade challenges, having to transport goods through neighboring countries at high costs, affecting product value and export potential.
Definition Neo-colonialism refers to the continued economic influence of powerful nations over former colonies through debt markets and transnational corporations.
Quote "As more women have education the fertility rate falls as there are more opportunities for women."
This page begins to discuss the impact of wars and conflict on development but is cut off mid-sentence.
Highlight Wars can significantly damage a country's infrastructure, though the full explanation is incomplete in the provided text.
The section details how conflicts and geographic location influence development trajectories.
Example Afghanistan's continuous civil wars since 1978 have severely impeded development by destroying infrastructure.
Highlight Geographic position, particularly access to sea routes, significantly impacts trade capabilities and development potential.
Definition Primary products are raw materials, typically exported by less developed nations at lower profit margins.
This section analyzes how international trade dynamics affect developing nations.
Definition Terms of trade refers to the relationship between export and import prices, often disadvantaging developing nations.
Example Tea and coffee prices fluctuate significantly, making it difficult for producing countries to plan economically.
Highlight Colonial economic structures often result in profits leaving developing countries through multinational corporations.
This section examines India's development contrasts between core and peripheral regions.
Example Mumbai represents a developed core with qualified workforce and strong infrastructure.
Definition The multiplier effect describes how initial economic growth creates additional growth through increased employment and service demand.
Highlight Bihar, as a peripheral region, demonstrates development challenges including poor infrastructure and low literacy rates.
This section explores how development scale affects economic outcomes.
Definition Rostow's Model of Development identifies five stages of economic growth.
Example Countries like China and India are in Stage 3 (Take Off), showing rapid growth characteristics.
Highlight Smaller-scale development may limit TNC attraction and create primarily low-skilled employment opportunities.
This section explains the transition between economic sectors during development.
Definition The Clark-Fisher Model demonstrates how employment distribution changes as countries develop from pre-industrial to post-industrial stages.
Example In pre-industrial societies, approximately 70% of employment is in the primary sector.
Highlight The model shows how economic sector importance shifts during development stages.
This page explores various development indicators and their impact on national progress. The content covers economic, social, and environmental metrics that measure development levels.
Definition GNI per capita measures the total value of goods, earnings and services including overseas income, while GDP per capita focuses on domestic production only.
Highlight The Human Development Index (HDI) combines life expectancy, education, and GDP per capita into a single score between 0-1, providing a comprehensive view of development.
Example Malawi's population pyramid demonstrates characteristics of a Less Developed Country (LIC) with a youthful population due to high fertility rates and agricultural dependency.
Vocabulary Purchase Power Parity (PPP) - A measurement that relates average earnings to local prices to enable fair international comparisons.
