Measuring Development
Gross National Product (GNP)Measure of the total value of the officially recorded goods and services produced by the citizens and corporations of a country in a given year. Includes things produced inside and outside a country’s territory.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP)Measure of the total value of the officially recorded goods and services produced by the citizens and corporations of a country in a given year.
Gross National Income (GNI)Measure of the monetary worth of what is produced within a country plus income received from investments outside the country.
** Most common measurement used today.

Per Capita• Used to indicate the average amount of
something per person• For Example the average individual earns $15
per hour in a MDC while the per capita earning LDC is $2

• Development – process of improving the material conditions of people through diffusion of knowledge and technology
• Human Development Index (HDI)– Indicator of level of development for each country
combining three factors (economic, social, and demographic)
– Highest possible HDI is 1.0 (100 percent)– Norway has highest (.963)– Niger has lowest (.281)–Western European countries (and Canada) higher level– Sub-Saharan African countries lowest level
Human Development Index (HDI)

GDP per capita of $27,000• In Luxembourg $60,000• This is reflected in the jobs
typically done in MDC
LDC• All LDC average an annual
GDP per Capita of $4,400

Where are the LDC and MDC?
• Draw a line about 30 degrees North.– Majority of those countries above that line are
MDC– Majority of those countries below that line are
LDC– World categorized into 9 major regions based on
level of development and cultural characteristics.

MDC SPENDS $$$
• USA spends $8 billion a year on makeup– Cost of providing 2 Billion children schooling $6
Billion• European spent $11 Billion on ICE CREAM– Cost of providing toilets to 2 billion people
without working toilets = $9 Billion

What paths do LDC use to become MDC
• Development through Self-Sufficiency• Development Through International Trade• Financing Development• Fair Trade
![Page 20: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Development through Self-Sufficiency
• Improve income across the country to fight poverty instead of encouraging a few to become wealthy consumers
• Country places barriers to limit imports. – Often in the form of Tariffs ( High Taxes on imports)– Impact is that these tariffs made some consumer
goods to expensive for the average consumer
![Page 21: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Development through Self-Sufficiency
• Countries discourage exportation since the company is supposed to produce goods for consumption inside the country
• Private companies unable to make profit would get government help in subsidies like– Cheap electricity or debt reduction
![Page 22: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Development through Self-Sufficiency
• Problems with this approach– Inefficiency: Lack of competition produced
companies not driven to be effective– Large Bureaucracy : large government
involvement leads to abuse and corruption
![Page 23: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Development Through International Trade
• Country Identifies a distinctive or unique economic assets
• Once that is figured out concentrate on trading that assets
• Example could be oil or vegetables or flowers
![Page 24: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The Rostow Model• The Rostow Model - The Stages of Economic
Growth• W. W. Rostow was American.• He developed his model in 1960.• It was based upon the study of 15 mainly
European countries.• He suggested that all countries had the
potential to break the cycle of poverty and develop through 5 linear stages.

The Traditional Society
• A subsistence economy based on farming.• Output is consumed by producers rather than traded.
Trade is by barter• where goods are exchanged or 'swapped‘.• Agriculture is the most important industry and
production is labor• intensive, using only limited quantities of capital.• There is very limited technology or capital to process
raw materials or• develop industries and services.
![Page 28: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Pre-conditionsfor Take Off
• Surpluses for trading emerge supported by an emerging transport
• infrastructure.• Agriculture becomes more commercialized and
mechanized with• technological improvements.• Savings and investment grow.• Entrepreneurs emerge.• A single industry begins to dominate – often textiles.
![Page 29: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Take Off
• Industrialization increases, with workers switching form the land to
• manufacturing. This may cause large scale rural-urban migration
• Growth is concentrated in a few regions of the country and in one or two
• industries.• New political and social institutions are evolve to
support industrialization.• Airports, roads and railways are built.
![Page 30: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The Drive toMaturity
• Growth is now diverse supported by technological innovation. It should be
• self sustaining.• Economic development spreads to all parts.• A more complex transport system develops.• Increase in number and types of industry.• Manufacturing expands as early industries
decline.• Continued rapid urbanization.
![Page 31: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
High MassConsumption
• Rapid expansion of tertiary industry.• Industry shifts to production of durable
consumer goods.

Problems with Development through international trade
• Uneven resource distribution– Not all resources are equal
• Market stagnation– World market slows
• Increased dependence on MDC– If sales are good focus on just producing that
which sells then nothing for the people in that country
– If MDC economy slows so do their purchases
![Page 34: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
WTO
• World Trade Organization• Formed in 1995• Countries negotiate reduction or elimination
of international trade barriers• Created an agreement that creates
cooperation among nations for trade
![Page 35: Development Unit 5. MDC More Developed Country Developed Country A country that has progressed further along the development continuum LDC Less Developed](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070406/56649de85503460f94ae2845/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Financing Development
• This is a process where MDC lend money to LDC • Often LDC are not able to repay the loans
because their debt exceeds their income– MDC then refuse to lend further monies
• Structural Adjustment program – Requires a plan with repayment options and
dictation of how money spent and usually includes governmental actions to assist in repaying loan

Fair Trade
• Products are made and traded according to standards that protect workers and small business
• Fair trade standards are set internationally• http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/wholetra
