Der komparative Kostenvorteil : Ricardos Gründe für Spezialisierung
Collectif
- 50 Minutes
- 18 Février 2019
- 9782808009942
In nur 50 Minuten den komparativen Kostenvorteil verstehen
Der englische Ökonom David Ricardo stellte 1817 das Gesetz des komparativen Kostenvorteils auf. Es besagt, dass Freihandel für alle beteiligten Wirtschaftsakteure von Vorteil ist, wenn sich jeder Akteur auf die Produktion des Gutes spezialisiert, für das er einen komparativen Kostenvorteil bzw. den geringsten komparativen Nachteil hält. Das Gesetz findet insbesondere im Außenhandel seine Anwendung und bildet damit die Grundlage für die Globalisierungstheorie. Allerdings wurde auch festgestellt, dass der Außenhandel heute häufig auf künstlichen bzw. willkürlichen komparativen Kostenvorteilen beruht. Die Theorie des Verelendungswachstums oder auch die Theorie des ungleichen Handels bieten daher Alternativen zu Ricardos Modell.
Nach 50 Minuten knnen Sie:
Ricardos Modell zum Außenhandel auf ein aktuelles Beispiel anwenden
die Vorteile von Spezialisierung bei der Produktion beschreiben
die Theorie um weitere Modelle ergänzen
Anhand praktischer Beispiele wird die Theorie leicht verständlich veranschaulicht. So erhalten Sie einen interessanten und praxisorientierten Überblick über das Wesentliche.
Der Einstieg in ein neues Kapitel Ihrer Unternehmensgeschichte!

Book Review: Development as Freedom by Amartya Sen : A new approach to development
50minutes
- 50 Minutes
- 8 Avril 2019
- 9782808018777
It can be hard for busy professionals to find the time to read the latest books. Stay up to date in a fraction of the time with this concise guide.
Development as Freedom by Amartya Sen advocates a new outlook on development: whereas orthodox development thinking has a one-sided focus on economic development as the goal of the process of development, Sen's development as freedom framework sees the expansion of human freedom as both the goal and primary means of human development. He notes the "unfreedoms" that deprive millions of citizens around the world of the right to live the life they would choose, and suggests that economic indicators alone are insufficient as a measure of development. Sen is a major figure in the fields of development economics and welfare economics, and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences in 1998.
This book review and analysis is perfect for:
o Students of economics and international development
o Students of philosophy and politics
o Anyone who wants to understand the relationship between development and freedom

Navigating economic development in Cameroon : Policy Trajectories from Independence to the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) Initiative Completion 1960-2006
George Fuh Kum
- Editions L'Harmattan
- 19 Décembre 2024
- 9782336505398
This book is an analytical compendium of Cameroon's economic development policies, from 1960 to 2006. It opens with the country's colonial economic experiences and proceeds with an analysis of its initial economic development guidelines in the early 1960s, fundamentally based on development planning and planned liberalism, executed through Five Years Development Plans.
Cameroon's early development emphasis was on industrialisation, later deduced to be too costly and slow in spurring growth. Agriculture was thus endorsed in the early 1970s, as a primary strategy to boost real development in the country. It was in this backdrop that precepts like the green revolution, self-reliance development, food self-sufficiency and others were adopted.
The book rounds off with the different measures implemented by the Cameroon government, Bretton Woods institutions and others, to restore and sustain the country's economy by 2006 and perspectives. It argues that while the principles underlying Cameroon's economic development were resilient, they fell short of expected outcomes.
