Relationship Between Developing And Developing Countries

The increasing interdependence of world economies affects the standards of living greatly, but it can affect it positively. The standard of living is a measure of access people have to goods and services across the world. Quality of life is the conditions in peoples lives which is perspective. This paper will explain the importance of globalization in the developing world and how it can lead to open markets, taking millions out of extreme poverty and overall improving the standard of living across the world.

That this was also the decade in which globalization came into full swing is more than a minor inconvenience for its advocates” (Rodrick). If globalization is supposed to present an advantage to developing countries, why have there been so many setbacks? Indeed, both sides will have its winners and losers regardless of which side of the development coin they live on, but for the most part globalization has lifted millions out of poverty, improved the standard of living, and increased life expectancy rates all while keeping developed nations relatively competitive to their developing counterparts. Globalization’s value is that it seeks to create an economic equilibrium in the world, where parties are free from barriers and can benefit from one another through a more efficient allocation of resources. This allows all participating nations to contribute to an integrated economy and where all nations willing to embrace globalization have the potential to benefit. Regardless, the path to successful integration to the global economy has not always been easy. There is contention towards globalization as some argue that it is detrimental to developed nations, while many developing countries that were forced to hastily open up their markets and integrate failed. However, if implemented properly, globalization has proven that it can benefit all parties involved and that the potential gains outweigh the losses.

Globalization is the process in which people from diverse cultures, societies and regions interact with each other and share their ideas. As we approach the broad concepts of globalization, it is necessary to promptly address the impacts of it on developed and developing countries. Globalization has affected every country and has led to some radical changes. It has had a direct impact on our daily life and has influenced our social norms, economy and political landscape. It has also provided an opportunity to people from diverse cultures to interact, which has led to a change in the way how people talk, dress and eat. The impacts of globalization are explored in "Globalization Has Harmed Developing Nations." By Lila Rajiva,"Globalization Benefits Developing Nations." By Steven Horwitz, “The Impact of Globalization in the Developing Countries” By Fairooz Hamdi and in “Globalization Benefits the World's Cultures” by Phillippe Legrain. These articles have analyzed the impacts of globalization on developing and developed countries rigorously. In short, I agree with Fairooz Hamdi’s viewpoint on globalization, which states that the overall positives of globalization outweigh the negatives and that Globalization will be beneficial in the long run.

When it comes to creating a global economic order the goal is for there to be an order in which there is no poverty. Without the presence of global poverty then this is a sign that the general framework may be working. In chapter nine of the Global Justice: A Cosmopolitan Account Brock addresses the Global Economic Order and Global Justice. Within the Global Economic Order she addresses multiple questions, but the main questions she seeks to answer is the current global economic order conducive to creating a global order that is viable and alleviates the poverty in the world? In todays’ society there is a belief that ‘free trade’ or removing barriers to trade such as subsidies to domestic and import tariff. In essence opening up the economy

Both developing and developed nations were part of the set. The developed nations consisted of 47% of the total set. We started with 43 nations and dropped a few countries later from the analysis because of missing data.

Using named examples, examine the extent to which the development gap occurs within countries as well as globally.

Over the years, the World Trade Organization (WTO) has prided itself as the central element in the international economic management system across the world. This system incorporates other international bodies such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund as well as a series of other regional trade regimes that are growing. Collectively, these structures provide a mechanism that addresses international economic interdependence as well enhancing economic interactions that offer the promise of maximizing social welfare across the globe. These aspects have been brought about due to the focus given in the post-Cold War era where international relations have evolved beyond a narrow emphasis on politico-military affairs.

Countries are divided into two major categories by the United Nations, which are developed countries and developing countries. The classification of countries is based on the economic status such as GDP, GNP, per capita income, industrialization, the standard of living, etc. DEVELOPED COUNTRIES refers to the sovereign state, whose economy has highly progressed and possesses great technological infrastructure, as compared to other nations.

By definition development means ‘the act or process of developing; growth; or progression’. The world’s nation-states are commonly categorized based on their state of development; nations who have reached the end-state, that being developed, are colloquially termed as ‘developed nations’ or ‘first world nations’. In contrast, nations working towards this end-state are referred to as ‘developing nations’ or ‘third world nations’. However obvious or apparent these designations may seem, the constituents affecting the status of a respective nation’s development is quite convoluted. What qualifications do developed nations hold over developing nations; what does it mean exactly to be developed or developing. The process of development is dynamic, and so is the system by which nations received their designation. A series of indicators, institutions and measures are used to assess the state of a nation’s development; historically, these indicators have varied throughout time and space.

When you go to use your Keurig machine in the morning, chances are that you have some pods filled with grounds that were grown in Colombia. Their highly coveted coffee bean is sought after by coffee enthusiasts and in turn the work force is willingly to harvest and process the bean. Next to Brazil and Vietnam, Colombia is the third highest producer of coffee in the world. Since this commodity is popular, Colombia takes advantage of the global commodity and its demand for what they have to sell. We also are going to take on the county of Vietnam Both and Brazil are the top profomers in. As of 2014, Columbia is the third highest producer of coffee only matched by Vietnam and Brazil at #1.

Since the mid-20th century, countries have progressively reduced barriers, subsidies to domestic industries and diverse restrictions on international commerce in order to promote specialization and greater efficiency in production. In theory, free trade allows nations to focus on their main comparative advantages and profit from cooperation and voluntary trade. This strategy is usually reinforced by treaties between two or more countries where commerce of goods and services can be handled across their common borders, without tariffs and other trade obstacles. As a key component of regional integration in the Americas, CAFTA-DR is one important example of this economic ideology.

Developing countries want to gain wealth and stability, in order to do so they ask wealthy developed countries for financial assistance in the form of loans. They then can use these loans to increase their countries output by more than what it takes to repay their debt (FLS, 322). Many times they have to go through international financial organizations such as the IMF in order to gain these funds. The incentives for both sides is the high probability of the projected outcomes out-way the projected costs. However, maintaining payments of loans can be very difficult and can weaken the domestic economy in order to pay off the loans. If the government does not invest the money in social programs and just uses the money to help large corporations then there will be public outcry because the citizens will be negatively effected and feel like they did not benefit from the loans so should not have to pay the consequences. Thus loans can have both positive and negative outcomes for both lenders and borrowers.

In this era of globalisation, large numbers of the world’s population still live in poverty. Since the alleviation of poverty stands out as the most important aim of development work, it is important to understand the relationship between poverty and development so we can have answers to questions like; what is poverty? How should poverty be measured? Who is considered poor and what measures can development take to reduce world poverty.

Developing nations are filled with hope and aspirations of one day becoming a wealthy, dominating, and influential country. These nations can sometimes be unsafe, difficult to live in, and hard for workers to earn good compensation for their labor. On the other hand, living in a developed nation has many upsides. Developed nations are wealthy, which in turn have good infrastructure, labor and worker laws, and have less crime.

India is a developing country. The factors hindering development of the country are many. Some of them can be attributed to the low per capita income and larger chunk of the population living under the poverty line. India is a country with poor people but with rich natural resources. It can be said that the country’s potential is either the human resource or the natural resources are not adequately utilized to the maximum extent and that resulted in low per capita income. India is an agrarian economy. The economy is marred with unemployment and under employment. Since the economy is basically agrarian, disguised unemployment is also rampant among the farmer community.
