6. Economic Development & the World Economy Unit 7: Economic Geography Lesson 1

7. Main Idea of this Unit What parts of the world perform different economic tasks in the modern global economy, and why? Today, we’re just going to cover some basic vocabulary.

8. Economic Development Process through which a country improves its economy – Can involve diffusion of new technology

9. How can I tell how developed a state is? Look at economic and demographic indicators: Economic indicators: – GDP per capita – % of people working in different types of jobs Social/demographic indicators include: – Infant mortality rate – Level of education – Life expectancy – Literacy rates

10. GDP (gross domestic product) Value of total amount of goods and services produced in a country in a year – good - Physical product created for people – service - Work or labor created for people

12. per capita GDP / per capita income The average income of the people in a country GDP divided by population A better measure of a country’s standard of living than GDP (think about how GDP is misleading for China)

13. Annual GDP per capita, 2005 Fig. 9-2: Annual gross domestic product (GDP) per capita averages over $20,000 in most developed countries but under $5000 in most less developed countries.

14. Human Development Index Another way to analyze a country’s level of development. Combination of life expectancy, education, and income Every country is given a score from 0 to 1 The closer to 1, the richer the country

15. Human Development Index

World Systems Theory (Wallerstein, Core-periphery model) Core Production that involve higher levels of education, higher salaries, and more technology * Generate more wealth in the world economy Semi-periphery Places where core and periphery processes are both occurring. Places that are exploited by the core but then exploit the periphery. Periphery Production that involve lower levels of education, lower salaries, and less technology * Generate less wealth in the world economy Since colonialism, relations between countries have been about countries exploiting less powerful countries. Periphery countries will always be exploited by core countries.

36. Spatial Organization of the World Economy

37. Core periphery on different scales

38. Long-term Trends in Per Capita GDP
