They have done so in the past and, for a dozen years, the information and communications technology illustrate the processing capacity and the growth potential of innovation. These new techniques, like all revolutions, however, necessitate the invention of a new economic model. 1. Innovation increases productivity Technological progress leads to growth because it increases productivity. It is obvious to new production techniques, a little less for new products. New production assets, besides…
statistically significant in the fixed effect model. The coefficients of these variables as a measure of national innovation system are positive and statistically significant at the 1% and 5% levels of significance which implies that national innovation system as a whole has a positive effect on economic growth in BRICS economies and in consequence spurs their economic growth. With regards the relative effect which is explained by the dynamic panel model, the coefficients of university enrolment…
It is said that the human population growing like never before due to the fact that every twelve years, one billion people are being added to the planet. At that rate, there is roughly 220,000 people added per day, and by the year 2030, we would need two earths to be able to sustain our lifestyle (Overpopulation: Causes). With the environment constantly changing, there are new problems that arise with it. As the problem we face increases, the need to be aware of our surroundings also increases.…
Turner syndrome, also known as TS and gonadal dysgenesis, is a chromosomal deficiency affecting over two million women that occur when two of the X chromosomes in a female’s DNA are either incomplete or missing entirely. It usually becomes apparent when a female is only a few years old, or even shortly following her birth. The missing genetic material of the X chromosome keeps the female body from maturing on its own. Because Turner syndrome is different for every female and an individual…
industrialized countries, consisting of mostly Caucasian citizens, declaring that developing countries, the majority of which are of color, should limit the amount of children a couple can bear. Developing countries tend to have the largest population growth rates, contributing significantly to the world’s population as well as global warming due to inefficient methods of industry (“Are There Too Many of Us?”). Inversely, industrialized countries consume a greater amount of resources,…
and Reece 2011). They also serve as the models for the study of basic biological phenomena (Görtz and Adoutte 1988). As an aerobic cell, the paramecium consists of “structures and organelles of aerobic non-photosynthetic eukaryotic cells”, including a cell membrane, a cytoplasm, an endocytic system of coated pits, and shuttle vesicles,…
new firms and expansion of existing ones” (Aghion, Robin, Stephen, Fabrizio 2). This was later known as the license raj. By following the strict guidelines of the Industries Act, it limited the potential expansion of Indian firms and slowed economic growth. Economic conditions were made even worse, under the rule of Indira Gandhi. During her rule, there…
Harvard professor Edward O. Wilson, in his nonfiction book, The Diversity Of Life, narrates Wilson’s life while elaborating on the topic of biodiversity. Scientists, Flockhart et al., in their scientific journal article, “Unravelling the annual cycle in a migratory animal: breeding-season habitat loss drives population declines of monarch butterflies,” hypothesize the causes of butterfly population loss. While Wilson’s purpose is to discuss science in a narrative manner to provide reading for…
increase the production level, people have to work longer hours, firms need to add new workers, add machines and other kinds of capital that help us to produce, and produce more with what we already with. The government should balance a rate of economic growth. Money allows us to exchange and has purchasing power. Inflation is the rise of the average prices and it can be also seen as the purchasing power of the dollar is decreasing. Hyperinflation makes money worthless and moderate inflation can…
The statement “One man’s meat is another man’s scarcity” provokes a lot of thought and raises many relevant questions. The statement can be interpreted in a number of different ways, but I myself interpret it meaning that what one man might consider sufficient another man may consider insufficient. The statement is put in terms of food and begs the question is this about perceptions of diet and scale, this perception could be taken further and contextualised as a comparison between developed…
