With the soviets having an influence on the North side and the United States having an influence on the South side they became two different governments and countries. From the government, the people, and the rights they are totally opposites. In South Korea the government is a democracy, just like the U.S. with the executive, judicial, and legislative branches. North Korea, however, has a form of communism called dictatorship. The way that this country is run is seen by many people as a corrupt and crude way of leading a country. With millions of people starving everyday and the government not doing anything about it, it has a lot of people disgusted with this country. The people of South Korea are like average people[KE1] ; going to school and work with no worries about going home and not being able to eat. South Korea’s people are an average 2 inches taller than North Koreas people. The nutrition of North Koreas people from, mal-nutritious caused them to be shorter than their southern neighbors.

...Economic growth is increases in output. It can occur if previously unemployed resources are employed, there are more resources or existing resources improve in quality (Grant and Stanlake, 2000:285). According to the report, the economic gap between the north and the south of the United Kingdom was significantly enlarged in 10 years (White, 2015). Regional outcomes in Britain have exhibited strong signs of divergence and asymmetries on the basis of a North-South divide for over twenty years (lse.ac.uk, 2006). The purpose of this essay is to examine the regional imbalance in the United Kingdom. After first explaining measurable growth by some economic theories, it will analyse actual and potential growth by drawing business cycle and LRAS diagrams. Next, it will analyse the reasons for regional imbalance. Finally, it will evaluate actual supply side policies. Real GDP measures the value of goods and services produced at constant prices, the change of the real GDP only reflects the change of the quantity of production. In addition, people prefer to use real GDP than nominal GDP because real GDP reflects the economy’s ability to satisfy people’s needs and desires (Mankiw and Taylor, 2011:496-497).

...I. GLOBALIZATION: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES A. NEW FORCES DRIVING GLOBALIZATION any people consider globalization nothing new – societies have been interconnected for years. But globalization took different forms in the past and the contemporary conjuncture is new.1 The world has never experienced globalization at this level of intensity before or the speed at which it is transforming and integrating societies. There is no single, all-encompassing definition of globalization, notes Sen.2 Instead, it has become a broad heading for a multitude of global interactions, ranging from the expansion of cultural influences across borders to the enlargement of economic and business relations throughout the world. For the economist, globalization is essentially the emergence of a global market. For the historian, it is an epoch dominated by global capitalism. Sociologists see globalization as the celebration of diversity and the convergence of social preferences in matters of lifestyle and social values. To the political scientist, it represents the gradual erosion of State sovereignty. But disciplinespecific studies explain only a part of the phenomenon. From a multidisciplinary angle, globalization may be treated as a phenomenon, a philosophy and a process which affect human beings as profoundly as any previous event.3 Several factors have been responsible for this phenomenon. This study confines its attention to four growthenhancing facets of globalization that have been among its...

Chosen Characters: Mrs. Dubose and Reverend Sykes Introduction Harper Lee uses minor characters in To Kill A Mockingbird to enhance our understanding of the events in the novel and to explore some of the main themes that are presented throughout. These minor characters are significant as they succeed in creating contrast with the other more important characters and also manage to set the scene of the novel. Both Mrs. Dubose and Aunt Alexandra both have minor roles however, they are crucial in that they portray the prejudiced society at the time and furthermore, they establish Atticus’s moral convictions and standing. Topic Sentence 1 Mrs. Dubose is used by Harper Lee to assert two of the key values presented in the novel: courage and kindness. ‘I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand.’ ‘She was the bravest person I ever knew’ Mrs Dubose provides Atticus with an opportunity to teach Jem Jem ‘how to...
