Studi dilakukan pada bulan Maret hingga Mei 2014 di Kampung Akudiomi Kab…
Growth and convergence profiles in the Spanish provinces (1965-1997)
2005
. Economic performance in Spanish provinces has led to a considerable improvement in standard of living of their populations. Intense capital accumulation since the 1950s played a key roll in this process. Provincial inequalities may increase or decrease as a result of this growth pattern. This study analyzes the evolution of the disparities by means of distribution dynamics techniques. It explicitly considers economic size of each province and whether spatial spillovers exist. Results indicate that the convergence process has been especially intense for labor productivity, total factor productivity, and capital intensity, while for per capita income the patterns of convergence are less ma…
Street Food and Street Vendors, a Culinary Heritage?
2018
This paper examines the theoretical discourse surrounding street food and tells how street food is multidimensional and spatially contingent, but also tackles food safety and aspects related to street vendors’ issues. The street food sector offers to the guests various dishes and drinks prepared at the place of sale or only marketed by itinerant merchants or by vendors with stationary carts, either on the streets or in other public places that may be of interest for tourists. Fast food is generally associated with globalization, so present in high income per capita countries. This paper aims to present a radiography of street food marketing, an image that defines a particular region or coun…
Trying to control migration between zones in the world
2019
It is a fact that migration is a worrying problem in some world areas. Literature shows many studies about it. Nevertheless, no sound solutions have been proposed. Assuming that the key implied factors are development and demography, we suggest in this research, as a first step, to state a stochastic and dynamic demographic model neither considering sexes nor ages, but including the necessary and adequate economic, education and health variables. This model will be able to optimize, by means of a genetic algorithm, the amount and proportion of the main development indicators in different areas of the world along time, in order to reach the desired values of the population present in each ar…
Conflict and the Evolution of Societies
2012
The Malthusian theory of evolution disregards a pervasive fact about human societies: they expand through conflict. When this is taken account of the long-run favors not a large population at the level of subsistence, nor yet institutions that maximize welfare or per capita output, but rather institutions that maximize free resources. These free resources are the output available to society after deducting the payments necessary for subsistence and for the incentives needed to induce production, and the other claims to production such as transfer payments and resources absorbed by elites. We develop the evolutionary underpinnings of this model, and examine the implications of free resource …
1440 Child Mortality Under Five in Latvia, Causal Relationship and Reduction Possibilities in An International Context
2010
Background and aims: To identify the reasons of the continuously highest infant and under five mortality (U5M) rates in Latvia (since restoration of independence) within EU - 25, in order to find solutions to minimize the mortality rate in accordance with Millenium Development Goals (MDG). Methods: Analytical study of statistical data bases was performed by monitoring reports, private publications to find causal relationship in international aspect between U5M in Latvia and following factors: GDP, health budget per capita, Gini coefficient, medical service availability, etc. Results: Structure of U5M in Latvia differs from EU-25, being 2 to 10 times higher by reason of external causes of de…

Material flows, efficiency and decoupling: Latvia's case study
2019
Latvia with its growing economy and intensive use of biomass is one of the biggest per capita natural resource consumers in Europe. If current patterns of resource use are maintained, environmental degradation and depletion of natural resources will continue. This paper looks at the resource flows in Latvia (1995 to 2016) - the country that does not have fossil energy resource deposits and timber industry is an important economic sector contributing most to the direct material input. It analyses the main resource flows, its intensities and looks at the main drivers behind these changes. Results demonstrate that resource extraction and consumption is steadily increasing and are not decoupled…

International Indebtedness - Regional or Global Threat?
2019
International indebtedness means a public debt of a country, money or credit owed by a government to foreign lenders (external debt). This rticle includes description of reasons of creating debt, level of indebtedness of selected countries and its potential results. The aim of this article is to decide, if current indebtedness is just individual countries burden or is it general issue that concerns more countries and if there are any territorial regularity with their location. According to the data presented in the article the most and the least indebted countries are located in different parts of the world, which helped to conclude that there is no regularity with the level of indebtedness…
