1.1 What is Advanced Country

To start with, I will tell a little about the characteristics of the advanced countries. An advanced country is a sovereign country and its technology infrastructure is far away advanced from any other less advanced countries.

    Ferguson term paper

    As countries become bigger they are also becoming richer. The problem with this is that these countries then move into a stationary state where they do not grow economicly because they just live off their riches for so long and to a point where they are not as advanced as the rest of the new advanced countries. The major problem is stagnation. As a whole, these countries growth starts to slow down and stop, they go into crushing debt, inequality increases, the population starts to age, and they become antisocial. Having a representative government, a free market, rule of law, and a civil society, these four pillars, as Niall Ferguson called them where the reason why the West prospered more than countries like China and Japan. Having deteriorated, democracies have broken between generations by heaping IOU’s on “our children”. Causing the markets to hinder by over complex regulations.…

    Inic’s Have Been and Continue to Be the Driving Force of Globalization. to What Extent Do You Agree with This Statement?’

    The classification of countries as NICs has only happened in the last 30 years. In 1970 when the Four Asian Tigers; Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan all became classed as NICs in the 1970s and 1980s, with exceptionally fast industrial growth since the 1960s; all four economies have since graduated into advanced economies and high-income economies. There is a clear distinction between these countries and the nations now considered to be NICs. In particular, the combination of an open political process, high GNI per capita, and a thriving, export-oriented economic policy has shown that these countries have now not only reached but exceeded the ranks of many developed countries.…

    Cultural Differences Between North And South Korea

    Korea lies in the eastern part of Asia. This peninsula is divided into two countries: North Korea and South Korea. Although there is a division of landscape, government, and culture, the bulk of people in Korea consider themselves a part of the Korean nation. Regardless of that, the countries do have their differences. The entire peninsula is cut off from Northeast China by rugged mountains and sizable rivers (Rowntree 365). The north suffers from heavy deforestation, however it has more natural resources. The south has made extensive reforestation efforts post WWII and so they have more greenery. In terms of culture, there are more intense differences. In the South, k-pop and Korean drams have gone global. The culture has appealed to people worldwide. Meanwhile, North Korea remains somewhat in isolation. What’s more, North Koreans attempt to flee into Northeast China, quite often. Yet no one flees South Korea. This shows that there are different cultures and levels of comfort in each…

    American Imperialism Negative Effects

    Mies states, “This is because just as one colony may, after much effort, attain what was considered the ultimate in ‘development’, the industrial centres themselves have already ‘progressed’ to a yet more ‘modern’ stage of development; ‘development’ here meaning technological progress” (Mies, pp.152). In other words, the lagging countries will never be able to catch up because of the fact that, while they are trying to catch up to the first-world countries, the first-world countries are simultaneously continuing to develop. Therefore, there will always be a widening gap between the two, unless the more advanced country, by some means, halts all progress until the underdeveloped country catches…

    It's the Little Things That Could Matter Most: The Secret Behind South Korea's Development

    “Destitution at it it’s finest”, a sentence that correctly describes South Korea in the 1960’s. “Wealthy and developed”, one that barely matches its description today. Many of you might criticize my unceasing focus on South Korea’s transformation from poverty to prosperity. Well it’s just a belief filled with certainty that South Korea could act as a potential role model for Rwanda. Now, again many of you might already be informed of this or probably share a similar thought but the only question that perturbs us is HOW!?…

    Australia and Oceania.

    A complex set of social, economic, cultural, political criteria is usually used to classify the geographical regions. The regions are distinct in terms of size, population, development, potential of growth. Some are representative for the recent industrialization (south East Asia), others for economic and human backwardness (sub-Saharan Africa), others for economic supremacy and political hegemony (North America) or others for profound and radical transformations in the recent years (Eastern Europe and former Soviet Union). Due to the macro-scale of analysis, the most important criterion is general functionally; the uniqueness and homogeneity come second. The typology of main regions of the world is based on a macro-economic indicator, GDP per capita, that sets apart eight regions: North America, Latin America and the Caribbean, Western Europe, Eastern Europe and Russian Federation, North Africa and Southwest Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, Southeastern and Pacific Asia, Australia and Oceania.…

    What makes asian growth so phenomenal

    Asian cities have been tended to grow more quickly than Western cities, so what makes their growth so phenomenal? The accelerated rate may be attributed to population dynamics, economic markets and or/socio-political conditions, poor planning and disregarding environmental hazards like flood plains have held them back. Many primate cities in Asia have grown to become megacities, and some more are rapidly increasing in size to assume such a status by the end of the century. This is a remarkable phenomenon fraught with various implications, favorable or unfavorable. In 1960 there were only two megacities in the region, which were, Tokyo and Shanghai. In 1970 Beijing was added, and Asia had three of 10 megacities in the world, or two of five in the developing world. By 1980 Bombay, Cacutta, Osaka, and Seoul also assumed similar status, and Asia had seven of 15 world megacities. In 1990, with Tianjin, Jakarta, Delhi, and Manila becoming megacities, developing Asia contained nine of 14 mega-cities in the less developed regions. In my opinion, I believe that the population dynamics are the most influential to urban growth.…
