UNIT ONE REVIEW INTRODUCTION TO GEOGRAPHY
2
GEOGRAPHY The Greeks were the first society to introduce geography as a subject Eratosthenes – first to use word geography Geo = Earth -graphy = to write

DEMOGRAPHIC TRANSITION MODEL No countries are in stage 1 Transition from 1 to 2 – Industrial Revolution, Medical Revolution 1: High birth and death rates 2: Rapidly decreasing death rates 3: Rapidly declining birth rates 4: Low birth and death rates; Zero Population Growth (United States) 5: Death rate higher than birth rate (Japan, South Korea, some Europe)
27
THOMAS MALTHUS Late 1700s Britain Overpopulation World’s population was growing faster than rate of food production Didn’t realize we would have technology to increase food production
28
POPULATION PYRAMIDS Also called age-sex graphs Males on left, females on right Show dependency ratio and sex ratio Can be for country, city, or neighborhood Large base = high birth rate, less developed country Large top, small base = low birth rate, many elderly, more developed country

35
MIGRATION PATTERNS Historically, rural to urban Today – urban to suburban, urban to rural (counter-urbanization) Mostly LDC to MDC United States – north and east to west and south Ravenstein’s laws: mostly young, single, white males, mostly short distances, long distance migrants head toward cities

HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX Social: literacy rate, years of schooling, pupil to teacher ratio Demographic: life expectancy Economic: GDP per capita or GNI per capita, at PPP Brandt Line separates MDCs and LDCs Norway is highest Niger is lowest
83
THE BRANDT LINE © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The Brandt Line is located at 30 degrees North; it separates the More Developed northern countries from the Less Developed southern countries.

MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS 8 goals United Nations Expired in 2015 Fairly successful Poverty, health, education, global connectedness
87
EUROPE’S EARLY INDUSTRIAL CENTERS Europe was the first region to industrialize during the nineteenth century. Numerous industrial centers emerged in Europe as countries competed with each other for supremacy.
88
NORTH AMERICA’S EARLY INDUSTRIAL CENTERS North America’s manufacturing was traditionally highly concentrated in the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada. In recent years, manufacturing has relocated to the South, lured by lower wages and legislation that has made it difficult for unions to organize factory workers.
89
EAST ASIA’S EARLY INDUSTRIAL AREAS East Asia became an important industrial region in the second half of the 20 th century, beginning with Japan. Into the 21 st century, China has emerged as the world’s leading manufacturing country by most measures.

WEBER’S LEAST COST THEORY Triangle – agglomeration, labor, transportation costs Substitution principle Bulk-gaining and bulk-reducing industries Basic and non-basic industries
91
WEBER’S INDUSTRIAL “LEAST COST” MODEL Labor Transportation Agglomeration “Sweet spot”
92
DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES Self-sufficiency (bubble) International Trade
93
ECONOMIC SECTORS Primary Secondary Tertiary Quaternary Quinary
94
WALLERSTEIN’S WORLD SYSTEM THEORY Core, periphery, semi-periphery Periphery supply cheap labor and raw materials Core provide market and industry Can also occur within a country – urban and rural
95
Wallerstein’s Theory: Core and periphery countries need each other to exist; no country develops in isolation
96
ROSTOW’S DEVELOPMENT MODEL Five stages – less developed to more developed Primary to secondary to tertiary Also matches up with Wallerstein and DTM 1-2: Periphery 3: Semi-periphery 4-5: Core

113
CONCENTRIC ZONE MODEL
114
BID-RENT THEORY Burgess is based on the bid-rent curve:
115
HOYT SECTOR MODEL
116
HARRIS-ULLMAN MULTIPLE NUCLEI MODEL
117
GALACTIC CITY MODEL (PERIPHERAL MODEL)
118

122

123
FRQ PREDICTIONS World cities and megacities – functions, distributions, future growth Gravity model – interactions between cities Multiple nuclei model Galactic city model Latin American city model Sustainable (smart) design for cities Central place theory – threshold and range
