Financial repression can be seen in many countries. The concept of financial repression was introduced in 1973 by Stanford economists Edward S. Shaw and Ronald I. McKinnon.

The long-term goal of such measurements is to reduce unemployment in the country and to spur the economic growth. It can be said, that such measurements can be ...

Impact of Government Policy on Business Industry

Impact of Government Policy on Business Industry The government makes laws and regulations touching on every single aspect of people’s lives. These laws range from when to take your child to school to how businesses relate to the government. It is evident that businesses cannot operate without control by the government.

Business policies that the government enforces will either stimulate the growth of the economy or necessitate for the reverse to happen. Good business policies expand the industry and ...

Today, individuals are turning conscious related to their health and the food companies are cashing on this opportunity rigorously by launching low-calorie foods. Hence, for a company that is not only launching low-calorie but also microwavable food, a good product pricing can surely assists it in gaining a significant demand and market share. However, since the market is monopolistic and different companies are infiltrating the market to gain their share of the normal profits, it is really important for the managers to adopt the pricing strategy that at the time of increasing prices ensures that the demand remains inelastic to the extent ...

Summary:

It was a general belief for a long time that the demand for oil will far exceed the supply and the world will run out of its reserves of oil. This would lead to the sky-rocketing of the oil price and lead to a crisis in the energy sector. But the recent developments have proved such fers wrong. But, of course, apprehensions of shortage do remain in the future decades. But the immediate fears of the shortage could be warded off due to two major reasons. First, the improvement in technology and massive research and excavation work has lead to ...

Lead poisoning could destroy almost all parts of the body especially the brain. Lead could accumulate in the blood if there is a much exposure to the toxic substance which interferes with most of the processes of the body. The government should protect the people from toxic substance by regulating and controlling its commercial use. However, government agencies also protect the industries that include lead to their production since these companies provide them the profit. This became the dilemma in which an ethical issue arises and the victims are the American children. The article ‘Lead Poisoning: The Ignored Scandal’ ...

Therefore, it is important to tackle this problem through the joint efforts of the community, the private sector and ...

The performance of the economy depends entirely on demand and supply of goods and service in the economy. The economy has a demand side and supplies side. When demand side and supply side are equal the equilibrium is achieved. In some instance, the aggregate demand may be high than the supply. This leads to an increase in price of goods and services. When the supply is higher than demand it leads to surplus of good and service in the market. For us to understand the microeconomics concept of demand and supply, we have to explore demand and supply individually. ...

1. What Sociological Theories have been presented during the lectures to describe these population groups and associated policies? Examples One of the most influential sociological theories which were discussed in the past weeks is the theory of mainstreaming. Personally, I thought that the rich and can-afford people will be the only ones who could be able to experience the appropriate type and amount of healthcare, especially during times of acute and chronic medical cases. What’s ironic is that those who cannot afford health care are the ones who are more vulnerable to even the simplest health threats ...

England is a constituent country of the larger United Kingdom. The other countries that constitute the United Kingdom include Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The latter three are mere devolved administrations of the larger United Kingdom. This paper would, however, limit itself to England which is fully under the charge of the United Kingdom led by the institution of the Monarch. It should be noted that the Monarchial system of governance in England essentially rests within the Parliamentary system of governance bases on the Westminster model. England, therefore, does not practice absolute Monarchial systems but rather practices a parliamentary monarchial government ...

The 1994 Rwandan genocide is perhaps one of the most important events to the African continent. In this event, a nation with one of the smallest land mass in the continent suffered the biggest loss of human lives in its history. Within a short time, about a million people had lost their lives within a span of just one hundred days. Other scholars have argued that number of people murdered in the genocide far exceeds the 1 million mark, about one fifth of the country’s total population. Several governments and human rights groups have taken keen interest in studying the Rwandan case so ...

The policy making process in the United States is a rather complex one. Politics and lobbying intricacies make the process long and divergent. Each policy takes a different path due to the impact the policy will have on laws and other legislations. However, modeling a policy making process simplifies the problem into important stages significant in the policy making process. Similarly in making the Medicaid and Children’s Health insurance plan the process under which these policies would be developed would be complex and equally different. Additionally policies differ in the jurisdiction which it covers, that is, federal policies cover the entire ...

The issue of race and ethnicity has been a sensitive matter in many governments for many decades. Socio-political aspects combined with economic interest have generated a totally different form of leadership other than the one intended to serve the state and pursue nation building. This new kind of leadership is skewed towards fostering efforts that benefit only a particular ethnic groups or race. The result of such differentiated form of leadership is rampant corruption, violence and in some cases genocide. Several states such as Somalia are now failed states due to political ideologies defined by ethnicity. Africa seems to suffer this problem ...

The combined Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and rose to $15.8trillion in 2008(International Monetary Fund estimates) which is impressive when compared to the G.D.Ps of U.S.A and Canada ($ 15.5trillion) and Europe ($ 14.8trillion).
