Hotelling initiated the use of spatial analogies in assessing market differentiation. In this paper, this line is followed to analyze differentiated international markets. Most of the economies in the world are arrayed as if they are a continuum of points of demand. In this paper, this continuum of demand points is partitioned into homogeneous segments by use of a classification algorithm that minimizes within-group variation. The criteria used for classifying are two indicators of market overlap that have been suggested as important by the new trade theory, proximity of gross national product (GNP), and proximity of per capita GNP. Several of the derived market partitions are compared with other classifications of international markets in the form of existing and planned geographically discriminatory trade arrangements.

Kvankam montriĝis eble atingi tre altan multoblan R (.90), kiu klarigis pli ol 80 procentojn de tia trans-polita vario surbaze de nur dek antaŭdiriloj, lingva homogeno/heterogeno ne estis inter tiu plej trafa subkategorio de antaŭdiriloj. Vario de laŭkapa malneta nacia produkto estas rekta flankprodukto de vario en modernigo de ŝtata administracio kaj industrio—variebloj, kiuj nur nedirekte kaj nesignife rilatas al lingva homogeno/heterogeno.

Peak Phase

The Nigerian agricultural export sector has been through three different development phases: transition, peak, and de-agriculturalisation. Blending simple international trade theory with actual facts, this study supports the notion that production during the transition phase enjoyed a classical "vent for surplus" type of growth, involving increased utilisation of available factor inputs, which in turn produced increased per capita income. Coupled with the classical factors were several technological packages introduced to farmers in later years. These led to the attainment of output peaks mainly in the 1950s and 1960s. Finally. the study argues that the foundation for de-agriculturalisation was already laid during the peak phase when farmers were taxed heavily, and several agricultural projects were biased against them.

The article concentrates on the application of gravity-type model to explain the volume of agro-exports from the Czech Republic. The multiplicative exponential function of the appropriate explanatory variables is used to describe the bilateral trade flows. Gross national product, gross national product per capita and geographical distance between the capitals of economies proved statistically significant. From regression analysis of the transformed data, there is apparent the positive correlation between the export volume of the commodity group 0 – Food and live animals SITC, rev.3 and gross national income. On the contrary, the negative correlation is between the agro-export volume and gross national income per capita and geographical distance as well. The built model is significant at the 5% level and explains more than 75% of dependent variable variance.

Colombo Plan

The eleventh annual report of the Consultative Committee of the Colombo Plan was prepared at the Committee's meeting in Melbourne in November 1962. The report noted that, on the basis of available statistics, the rate of progress in the Colombo Plan area during 1961–1962 was uneven, with increases in gross national product of up to 8 percent. On a per capita basis, changes in gross national product ranged from increases of up to 6 percent to falls of 2 percent. One of the most encouraging developments of the year had been the growth of technical cooperation, not only between countries inside the Plan region and those outside it, but also between member countries within the region.

BRITAIN HAS BEEN ACTIVELY TRYING TO ALTER THE BUDGETary arrangements of the European Communities in order to reduce the size of its net contributions since the Labour government of Harold Wilson succeeded Edward Heath's Conservative government in February 1974. This effort has been based upon the perception that Britain's net contribution to the budget – the balance of gross contributions and receipts – was excessive compared with that of its partners. Britain has been the largest net contributor, yet has a per capita gross national product which places it with the less prosperous member states.

Recently, the use of bamboo as a material in construction and else is very typical almost everywhere in the world. Bamboo stems are able to produce after processing a variety of products ranging from household items to industrial and other applications. The purpose of this study is to identify and classify the homogenous cases that have similar needs and knowledge about the importance application and benefits of bamboo. The questionnaires were completed by 378 respondents in Haiti. The results from K-mean clustering analysis show the three groups identified were namely Functional, Aggressive, and Potential groups. The Functional group was high knowledge about important application factors and low knowledge about benefit factors. While Aggressive group was high in both factors. Besides, the Potential group with the lowest one needing improvement on both factors. This study may suggest to the Haitian population to facilitate investment and promotion of bamboo products in both national and international markets in the country.

. . . viewed from [the] perspective of the consequences on maternal health, the Italian GNP per capita of over $20,000 translates into a lifetime risk of dying during pregnancy and childbirth of 1 in 17,360, whereas the respective figures for Mali, West Africa, are $310 and 1 in 7. A 66-fold difference in GNP manifests as nearly 2500-fold difference in maternal death.

Using Data

Using data from the 1970s, it was observed that the gross national product per capita was positively associated with male suicide rates in the Caribbean islands, with sociological variables playing a smaller role. In contrast, sociological variables played the more important role in the associations with female suicide rates.
