1 Development: Chapter 9 Measuring and Locating Development: KI#1 and #2

2 Think about the past 2 days: What does an MDC look like, compared to an LDC? What does feature is the best indicator of MDC vs. LDC? – Where can you draw the line? – What about trade surplus/deficit? Collect the HW

3 Characteristics of Development (LDC vs. MDC) Characteristic Per capita Income Wealth Dominate Industry (Sector) % in Agriculture Farming is …. Rural or Urban CBR ___. CDR ___. LE ___.

17 Conclusions Can you draw any conclusions about the location of MDCs or LDCs? (that way you don’t need to memorize EVERYTHING!)

18 What is this map attempting to show? Fig. 9-22: This north polar projection of the world shows that most of the MDCs are in a core area north of 30° N latitude. The LDCs are mostly on the periphery of this map. *Is there a reason for this?

19 More and Less Developed Regions More developed regions – Anglo-America–Western Europe – Eastern Europe–Japan – South Pacific Less developed regions – Latin America–East Asia – Southeast Asia–Middle East – South Asia–Sub-Saharan Africa

20 More and Less Developed Regions Fig. 9-8: The less developed regions include Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, Middle East, South Asia, East Asia, and Southeast Asia.

21 Why is this map important?
