Global EconomicsGlobal Economics • Enormous gaps between the rich and poor countries of the world
• Some states are still subsistence based while others have moved beyond manufacturing to tertiary economies.
• Even within the wealthy or First World nations there are often areas of economic disparity within regions

Measuring Development
Gross National Product (GNP) Measure of the total value of the officially recorded goods and services produced by the citizens and corporations of a country in a given year. Includes things produced inside and outside a country’s territory.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Measure of the total value of the officially recorded goods and services produced by the citizens and corporations of a country in a given year.
Gross National Income (GNI) Measure of the monetary worth of what is produced within a country plus income received from investments outside the country. ** Most common measurement used today.

Concepts & ApproachesConcepts & Approaches• Gross National Product-all goods & services produced
by the economy per year both inside & outside the nation• Gross Domestic Product-all goods & services produced
by the economy per year with in the nation • GNP or GDP does not reflect regional variations-it also
doesn’t count the informal economy-black market, illegal drug trade & underground economy
• Developed Countries-(DCs) have high levels of industrialization, urbanization & standard of living
• Underdeveloped (UDCs) or Developing Countries are moving toward developed status-not as highly industrialized or urbanized with a lower standard of living

Measures of DevelopmentMeasures of Development• National Product per person-the total
income divided by total population-Core (developed) about $25,000 while Periphery (developing) as low as $100.
• Occupational Structure of the Labor Force-% of workers in each section-high number in agriculture signals low development
• Consumption of Energy per Person-the greater the use of electricity-the higher the development
• Productivity per Worker-production of all goods divided by the total labor force
![Page 6: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Measures of DevelopmentMeasures of Development• Transportation & Communication per
person-railroad, road miles and airline connections per person as well as telephone, radio, television or computers per person.
• Consumption of Manufactured Metal per Person-the greater the amount of steel, iron, copper, aluminum etc. used per person
• Other Rates-– Literacy
– Caloric intake
– % of income spent on food
– Amount of savings per person

Issues with Measuring Issues with Measuring Economic DevelopmentEconomic Development
• All measurements count the:– Formal Economy – the legal economy that
governments tax and monitor.
• All measurements do not count the:– Informal Economy – the illegal or uncounted
economy that governments do not tax or keep track of.

Core-Periphery ModelCore-Periphery Model• Immanuel Wallerstein proposed the World Systems
Theory with promoted the Core-Periphery concept.• Unlike the term-developed and developing, the Core-
Periphery Model does not imply that change will occur.• Core-Periphery regionalism got its start during the period
of colonialism was re-enforced by the Industrial Rev. and continues in the age of globalization.
![Page 9: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Core-Periphery ModelCore-Periphery Model• New approach to developed or
underdeveloped idea• Core-Periphery also used in a
political context• Core-the nations with a high
level of prosperity with dominant economies globally
• Periphery-poor nations that are dependent on the core as markets for raw materials and sources of technology
• Semi-Periphery-better off than periphery, but still dominated by the core to some degree

Global Economic DisparitiesGlobal Economic Disparities• Much of the disparity
existed as Colonialism was established by European nations.
• The Industrial Revolution increased the need for raw materials and markets for finished goods.
• Neo-colonialism refers to the economic dominance of the core over the former colonial nations-economic rather than political control
![Page 14: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Conditions in the PeripheryConditions in the Periphery• High birth rates, moderate death rates and low life
expectancy• High infant mortality rates-large population under age 15
yrs.• Poor health care & shortage of doctors-disease is common• Poor sanitation and lack of fresh, clean water• Poor nutrition and protein deficiency• Low per capita income with many women & children doing
hard manual labor• High illiteracy rate with low levels of education• Great disparity between rich & poor, small middle class• Urban areas overcrowded, lack of services, rapid urban
migration• Subsistence farming on small landholdings
![Page 15: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Conditions That Hamper DevelopmentConditions That Hamper Development• Political instability and
corruption• Exploitation of natural
resources and workers regardless of consequences
• Dependence of agricultural products or primary products such as mineral resources
• Misuse of foreign assistance
• Misguided priorities• Cultural resistance to
modernization

Costs of Economic DevelopmentCosts of Economic Development
• Industrialization– Export Processing Zones (EPZs), maquiladoras,
and special economic zones (SEZs).
• Agriculture– Subsistence and agricultural conglomerates– Desertification-especially in Africa – Soil erosion
• Tourism-may have serious negative consequences – Use of scarce commodities– Foreign investors make the profit
![Page 17: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Tourism: Boom or BustTourism: Boom or Bust• Tourism contributes little to
a nation’s development & may have serious negative effects on the culture
• Hotels & other facilities are often owned by transnational corporations which take the profits out of the country
• Tourism jobs can be demeaning & dehumanizing or even insulting
• Tourism jobs pay minimal wages for menial tasks
![Page 18: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Tourism: Boom or BustTourism: Boom or Bust• Profits are reinvested in
airports, cruise ship ports & other infrastructure to serve tourists
• Tourists use up valuable resources such as food & fresh water
• Tourism can debase or change a local culture
• An invasion by wealthy foreigners can breed hostility and resentment
• Harsh contrast between gleaming modern tourist hotels and poor workers housing
![Page 19: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Levels of IndustrializationLevels of Industrialization• Some countries like the
Soviet Union industrialized quickly with central planning-Stalin’s Five Year Plans
• All decisions were made in Moscow-no local control
• Focus on heavy industry-steel, electrical, chemical, military hardware
• Little emphasis on consumer goods
• Little concern for worker safety or environmental problems

Models of DevelopmentModels of Development• There are two broad models of
economic development;
– Liberal Models based on the assumption that all countries pass through the same stages of economic development and disparity is the result of short term inefficiencies
– The Liberal Model assumes that all nations are capable of the same level of economic development
![Page 21: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Development ModelsDevelopment Models
Modernization ModelWalt Rostow’s model assumes all countries follow a
similar path to development or modernization, advancing through five stages of development, climbing a ladder of development.
- traditional
- preconditions of takeoff
- takeoff
- drive to maturity
- high mass consumption
![Page 22: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Models of DevelopmentModels of DevelopmentWalt Rostow created this liberal model of development in
the 1960s
1. First Stage-Traditional1. Subsistence farms-limited technology
2. Rigid social structure
3. Resistance to change-transition triggered by external influence
2. Second Stage-Preconditions for Take-Off1. Progressive Leadership-commercial exploitation of agriculture
& extractive industries
2. Greater flexibility-installation of infrastructure-roads, railways, etc.
3. Greater openness to new technology
4. Greater Diversity of products produced
![Page 23: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Models of DevelopmentModels of Development3. Third Stage-Take Off
1. Experiences industrial growth2. Urbanization3. Industrialization, technology & mass production
4. Drive to Maturity1. Diffusion of technology2. Industrial specialization3. International trade4. Modernization at the core5. Population growth is reduced
5. Fifth Stage-Final Stage1. Mass consumption-widespread production of goods & services2. High incomes3. Majority of workforce in service sector

Models of DevelopmentModels of Development• Structuralist Model this is
the alternate to the Liberal Model that states disparities are inevitable due to structural features of the global economy.
• These disparities can not be easily changed-it is misleading to assume that all areas will go through the same economic process of development
![Page 26: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Models of DevelopmentModels of Development• Dependency Theory is
another Structuralist Model• Political & economic
relationships between nations & regions limit the development of the less well off areas
• Colonial dependencies are still in place from long ago.
• Dependency theory sees little hope for economic prosperity in some traditional parts of the world
![Page 27: Neb development](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/559034821a28abff2c8b466e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Dependency TheoryDependency TheoryThe political and economic relationships between countries and regions of the world control and limit the economic development possibilities of poorer areas.
-- Economic structures make poorer countries dependent on wealthier countries.
-- Little hope for economic prosperity in poorer countries.

A Changing WorldA Changing World• Until 1980s there were 3
Blocs– First World-The Capitalist
West-the most advanced nations-democratic & capitalist
– Second World-The Communist East of the Soviet Union & its Eastern European Satellites, Red China, N. Korea & Vietnam
– Third World-non aligned nations with mixed economies and state control-now an obsolete term

Three Tier StructureThree Tier Structure
Core Processes that incorporate
higher levels of education, higher salaries, and more technology
* Generate more wealth in the world economy
Semi-periphery Places where core and periphery processes
are both occurring. Places that are exploited by the core but then exploit the periphery.
* Serves as a buffer between core and periphery
Periphery Processes that incorporate lower
levels of education, lower salaries, and less technology
* Generate less wealth in the world economy
