This document proposes a two-circuit approach to economic development that considers both economic and social values. It critiques standard economic models for being too focused on profit maximization. The two-circuit diagram shows the economy alternating between phases of surplus expansion, basic expansion, and a stationary state.

This document discusses China's increasing engagement with Africa over the past decade. It poses three questions about China's impact on Africa's development: 1) Will China help African industrialization? 2) Does China's model of concessional finance offer a new approach for Africa's extractive industries? 3) Will China's infrastructure investments help integrate Africa's economies? After decades of reduced involvement, China is now a major investor and partner in Africa as its companies look abroad and its policy banks provide loans for commodities and projects.Maury forman

The document discusses the basics of economic development. It defines economic development as activities that promote increased revenues, jobs, and diversification within a geographic boundary to improve quality of life. Economic development involves promoting investment and capital to encourage maintaining and gaining use of property and equipment, resulting in new or retained jobs. The goals are to create jobs, raise incomes, increase tax base, help local industries, and stabilize the economy. Economic development is about more than just jobs - it also involves investment, tax base growth, return on investment, market growth, and personal income growth.Critique of Dependency Theory
Critique of Dependency Theorygmatebele
?
Dependency theory argues that developing countries are held back by their economic dependence on developed countries in the North. However, some countries have shown development despite close links to the North through trade and technology. It is difficult for smaller countries to fully break ties and raise their own investment capital. While cutting ties could lead to less efficient resource use, in today's globalized world it is impossible to completely separate from Northern influence and markets.China investment in africa (1)

Chinese investment in Africa offers opportunities but also challenges. There are three main types of Chinese companies investing in Africa - state-owned enterprises, non-state owned corporations, and private businesses. State-owned enterprises pursue China's interests above profits and employ mostly Chinese workers. Non-state owned corporations focus more on profits but also consider China's interests, employing more local workers. Private businesses prioritize profits and have small, locally employed workforces. However, Chinese companies face political instability, safety and security issues, cultural barriers, and financial risks in operating in Africa. Despite challenges, Chinese investment in Africa is expected to continue growing as non-state actors and private businesses increase their presence.Platinum Valley Special Economic Zone

Thailand is facing a deep political crisis that has divided the nation along "red" and "yellow" factions and fuelled instability. The government has taken a hard line against red shirt protesters, jailing their leaders and censoring media, worsening tensions. Failure to address grievances or punish those responsible for protester deaths risks further violent unrest. Additionally, the poor health of the aging King and uncertainty around succession could exacerbate political conflicts during a transition of power.Thailand country study

It finds that total trade has increased since the FTA, with imports from Thailand growing faster than exports to Thailand. While India had a trade surplus in earlier years, imports have come to exceed exports in recent years.

Thailand
- 2. ? When Yingluck Shinawatra became Thailand¡¯s first ever female Prime Minister following her landslide victory in the August 2011 elections, the businesswoman turned-politician¡¯s relatively youthful age of 45 made her the country¡¯s youngest leader for more than 60 years, immediately resulting in an injection of fresh new life and promise into the nation and its governance. ? Mrs Shinawatra has successfully begun to win back the trust of the Thai people, maintaining social and economic stability and now the revitalization of bilateral relations with the United Kingdom.
- 3. ? It appears that now, in taking heed of the continued royal amity and their non-forgotten pledge, the nations¡¯ current political leaders are intent on pursuing an entirely different relationship of their own. ? As a result of Mrs Shinawatra¡¯s mission to Westminster last winter, an unprecedented agreement was made with the Cameron administration over the establishment of a Strategic Dialogue that will act as a ¡°high-level, consultative forum to set and monitor the future of bilateral cooperation in all areas¡±.
- 4. ? The new mechanism for communication is expected to bring a regular platform for both countries to exchange views on various matters of mutual interest, aimed at intensifying the already healthy relations and sparking a number of new socioeconomic initiatives and projects in the areas of trade and investment, tourism, education and defense, as well as serve as a vital arena in the exchange of innovational knowledge. ? Economically speaking, there has long been a strong and active presence of the British private sector in Thailand.
- 5. ? Thailand is certainly a formidable partner in these troubled economic times. Amid Europe¡¯s sovereign debt crisis and a faltering global economy, Thailand¡¯s GDP grew at an all time high of 18.9 per cent year- on-year in the final quarter of 2012. ? Overall the Thai economy expanded by 6.3 per cent last year, a figure rendered all the more impressive considering 2011¡¯s feeble increase of just 0.1 per cent, when the worst floods in almost 70 years swamped most of the country.
- 6. ? In the past few years, Thailand has witnessed marked progress in its socio-economic development, and despite the political challenges it has suffered in recent times, the country has become a real success story of emerging nations, sustaining economic growth and large poverty reduction to go with it. ? Now, under the leadership of Mrs Shinawatra, the Thai government is boosting spending to support growth, opening up the economy to greater foreign investment and seeking to develop deeper links with the rest of the developed world.
