Oftentimes, what makes a country to be considered as developed or developing is not necessarily the amount of wealth the country possesses, but the effectiveness of a government in managing the country’s resources. This is because many countries that fall under less developed classification are usually rich countries like Nigeria, it’s only that the wealth is not properly managed and not evenly distributed. However, the people living in these countries are tend to have exceptional cultures and traditional that the people residing in the developed countries may be lacking. Although there are a few similarities between Nigeria and Canada, the differences between the two countries are incomparable.…
As countries become bigger they are also becoming richer. The problem with this is that these countries then move into a stationary state where they do not grow economicly because they just live off their riches for so long and to a point where they are not as advanced as the rest of the new advanced countries. The major problem is stagnation. As a whole, these countries growth starts to slow down and stop, they go into crushing debt, inequality increases, the population starts to age, and they become antisocial. Having a representative government, a free market, rule of law, and a civil society, these four pillars, as Niall Ferguson called them where the reason why the West prospered more than countries like China and Japan. Having deteriorated, democracies have broken between generations by heaping IOU’s on “our children”. Causing the markets to hinder by over complex regulations.…
The most developed countries are usually considered to be the USA, Japan, the UK and Germany as they have the most advanced economies suggesting that if a nation is growing economically it is then therefore developing. However development can and should be defined as more than just in an economic sense. Development can be defined in an economic, social, l and sustainable sense.…

Developing countries are defined as those countries that have not achieved significant industrial growth relative to increase in population and GDP remains relatively low. As a result, standard of living is low and formal structures such as governments and education are often unstable. (e.g.: Sierra Leone, South Africa, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Bolivia)…
Consider Political and Economic Differences Paper: In this paper, provide a descriptive title or heading for your paper by focusing on topics or countries that interest you (such as “Political and Economical Developments in the Asian or European Systems”), and then discuss the following concepts: 1) Explain in detail why and how the political systems of countries differ; 2) discuss how the legal systems of countries differ; 3) explain what determines the level of economic development of a nation; 4) discuss with examples the macro-political and economic changes taking place worldwide; and 5) analyze how transition economies are moving towards market based systems. You can use specific continents, countries, or country as your focus.…
Furthermore, these developing economies may rapidly change over time and become well-formed economies, and could possibly better that of the UK. Therefore they would not be described as developing economies as a whole, and the comparisons would be a lot different as GDP changes over time, and there are many factors than can speed up or slow it down. Using GDP to measure economic growth may not be the best system, and an alternative way to measure economic growth could be to compare real income over time, or look at how many people go into education for example, to understand standard of living. A better standard of living is most likely to boost economic growth the…

There are many anomalies in the different methods of categorizing what constitutes a developed country. Kofi Annan, the former Secretary General of the United Nations made this definition: ‘A developed country is one that allows all its citizens to enjoy a free and healthy life in a safe environment’, but the United Nations Statistics Division believe that designating a country as developed or otherwise is arbitrary because definitions are so varied they belie other systems of judgment, with some people going as far as saying defining countries is a negative thing to do, and the current divide between what is considered to be a developed country and a developing, or under developed one is purely a 20th-century…
WASHINGTON: The rise of developing countries is transforming the global economy. Whereas for the bulk of the world’s population economic stagnation has been the rule over millennia, today’s economic growth is unprecedented. More countries – and people – are achieving rapid income growth than ever before, and developing countries are rising in the ranks of the world’s largest economies.…
There is no doubt that, as the economy develops, various economic determiners will show increase at the national (or gross) levels – investments, assets, production, incomes, and so on. This, in turn will progress to growth in national wealth to a point where, as a nation we are as well off or 'developed' as any other. However, it must be remembered that a nation is but a sum of the different strata of the society within it, just as a body is the sum of its parts. Looked at in this manner, it can understood that only when all the parts have the minimum required development (or 'health'), that the whole can be considered developed or healthy.…
In common parlance, a country is deemed to be developing or developed mainly on the basis of economics, per capita income, industrialization, literacy rate, living standards etc. According to Wikipedia, “A developed country or "more developed country" (MDC), is a sovereign state that has a highly developed economy and advanced technological infrastructure relative to other less developed nations. Most commonly the criteria for evaluating the degree of economic development is gross domestic product (GDP), the per capita income, level of industrialization, amount of widespread infrastructure and general standard of living. Which criteria are to be used and which countries can be classified as being developed are subjects of debate”…
People argue that the definition of the word underdeveloped is not clear. Development is a term created by the 1st and 3rd worlds. Development is not a thing. One could argue that underdeveloped countries are not behind or trying to catch up to the wealthier countries of the world. They are poor because they were coercively integrated into the European economic system only as producers of raw materials or to serve as repositories of cheap labor. They are denied the opportunity to market their resources in any way that competed with dominant states.…
