2 People to know: Carl Sauer: cultural landscape Thomas Malthus: population growth faster than food supply would mean disaster Rostow: stage of economic development Wallerstein: core-periphery model Von Thunen: location theory for agriculture Weber: location theory for industry/manufacturing Christaller : central place theory Burgess: Concentric urban model Hoyt: Sector: urban model Harris Ullman : multiple nuclei urban model

3 Carl Sauer: cultural landscape

4 Thomas Malthus: population growth faster than food supply

5 Rostow: stage of economic development US economist Walter Rostow, argued that countries would progress through five stages

6 Progressive stages of economic growth. Rostow Model

7 Strength of the Modernization model: Over the long term, all countries are capable of development. It has proved to works for some countries: Singapore, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan (Asian Dragons) the American South, Czech Republic, Ireland

8 Rostow’s model did not account for regional constraints

9 Wallerstein: core-periphery model Immanuel Wallerstein, a leading advocate of the approach characterizes the world system as a set of mechanisms which redistributes resources from the periphery to the core.

10 Dependency School of Thought/Model (1970s). Sees low development levels as being a result of the LDCs economic dependency on the MDCs.

12 Von Thunen’s Agricultural Model A land use model used to explain the importance of proximity to the market in the choice of crops on commercial farms(this created a concentric pattern: circles sharing the same centers Von Thunen’s Agricultural Model A land use model used to explain the importance of proximity to the market in the choice of crops on commercial farms(this created a concentric pattern: circles sharing the same centers)

13 Because farmers must pay to transport their produce to the market, and these costs are directly proportional to distance, the profit for each product declines as a straight line with increasing distance from the market

14 Weber’s least cost theory accounted for the location of a manufacturing plant in terms of the owner’s desire to minimize three categories of costs. 1. Transportation 2. Labor 3. Agglomeration

15 Do Activity

16 Weber's model attempts to explain industrial location.

17 Weber used locational triangles to illustrate the impact of transport costs on industrial location.

18 A. Transporting raw materials cost the same as the finished product

19 B. Transporting raw materials costs less than finished product (maybe finished product delicate/more packaging)‏

20 C. Transporting raw materials costs more than finished product (loss in bulk)‏

21 D. More of raw material from R2 needed than R1

22 Christaller : central place theory

23 Burgess: Concentric urban model

24 Hoyt: Sector: urban model

25 Harris Ullman : multiple nuclei urban model

26

27 C AR L Sauer: Cultural Landscape

28 Malthus: Malnutrition

29 Malthus: too many mouths to feed

30 Rostow: St ages of development

31 Wallerstein: Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall core periphery

32

33 Von Thunen: Vons Transportation

34 Weber: Spiderman spins webs for man=manufacturing

35 Christaller: Christ has a central place in Christians hearts

36 Burgess: Bulls eye

37 Hoyt: Hot Sector Model=Sexy model

38 Harris Ullman: Harris and Ullman have multiple partners
