The purpose of this paper was to give an overview of economic development under reform and world integration and to evaluate the main factors influencing the growth of the Vietnamese economy during the reform period (1990-2009). Based on statistical data on the Vietnamese economy in the period of 1990-2009, this study analyzed the factors affecting economic growth. The policy changes, economic development, poverty rates and living standards of Vietnamese population are analyzed over the reform period using qualitative methods. The results of this study show that economic growth under reform and world integration has reduced the poverty rate and increased living standards of population in Vietnam. An evaluation of the factors influencing economic growth is made using a quantitative model of total factor productivity (TFP) and another econometric model. The findings from this quantitative analysis show that the growth of the Vietnamese economy was determined by two factors: (1) capital investments, including foreign direct investment (FDI) and (2) the growth of exports. The results of these qualitative and quantitative analyses lay the foundation for policy recommendations for Vietnam Government to develop economy in the future.

This research paper is focused on analyzing situation of economic development in Ho Chi Minh City after nearly 30 years implementing economic reform policies in Vietnam to specify the position and role of Ho Chi Minh City economy in comparison with the whole nation’s. In this research, we applied qualitative method with data description and economic development indicators comparison. Data are secondary data which were obtained from Statistic Yearbooks of Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh City in periods 1990/2000/2005-2013. Results indicate that the Ho Chi Minh City economy remains the Vietnam’s largest which accounts for more than 20% GDP and a third of the national budget. The annual economic growth and average income per capita are 2-3% and two times higher than those of Vietnam respectively. The poverty rate is also the lowest in the country. Factors that positively affect the Ho Chi Minh City economic growth are capital and labor as reflected by higher productivity and efficiency (specifically Ho Chi Minh City’s ICOR is 1.5-1.78 times lower than Vietnam’s and laborproductivity is two times higher than that of Vietnam) and the greater contribution of the capital and labor factors to the economic growth. However, there are signals that Ho Chi Minh City economic growth is unsustainable, including (1) slower export volume and FDI; (2) reduced weight of industry sector, especially the slow growth of key high-technology disciplines; (3) the downgrading of the urban environment quality which reduces the green GDP growth; and (4) the gradual decrease of the total factor productivity (TFP) and its very small contribution to the Ho Chi Minh City economic growth. Based on the results, this paper suggests some solutions to a sustainable development for Ho Chi Minh City in the next period.

In a two-cut, alternate strip clearcutting system in upland black spruce, the main factors influencing black spruce regeneration in the first-cut strips were strip width, natural seeding period, amount of receptive seedbed and topographic position. In the three study areas, 80-m strips yielded over 60% stocking and over 7 500 seedlings per hectare with a 4-year natural seeding period. Narrower strips 40 m and 20 m wide showed increasing levels of reproduction. Four years of natural seeding gave better natural regeneration than two years. Seedling density and frequency in quadrats were correlated with the amount of receptive seedbed. Regeneration was more abundant on drainageways and lower slopes, and less abundant on upper slope and crest sites. For successful regeneration under similar climatic and physiographic conditions, strip widths should be no more than 80 m, and leave times no less than 3 years. It is essential to scarify the upland mineral soil sites, but scarification of lowland sites is not recommended, especially where there is abundant Sphagnum.

Analyzing the driving factors of regional carbon emissions is important for achieving emissions reduction. Based on the Kaya identity and Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index method, we analyzed the effect of population, economic development, energy intensity, renewable energy penetration, and coefficient on carbon emissions during 1990–2016. Afterwards, we analyzed the contribution rate of sectors’ energy intensity effect and sectors’ economic structure effect to the entire energy intensity. The results showed that the influencing factors have different effects on carbon emissions under different stages. During 1990–2000, economic development and population were the main factors contributing to the increase in carbon emissions, and energy intensity was an important factor to curb the carbon emissions increase. The energy intensity of industry and the economic structure of agriculture were the main factors to promote the decline of entire energy intensity. During 2001–2010, economic growth and emission coefficient were the main drivers to escalate the carbon emissions, and energy intensity was the key factor to offset the carbon emissions growth. The economic structure of transportation, and the energy intensity of industry and service were the main factors contributing to the decline of the entire energy intensity. During 2011–2016, economic growth and energy intensity were the main drivers of enhancing carbon emissions, while the coefficient was the key factor in curbing the growth of carbon emissions. The industry’s economic structure and transportation’s energy intensity were the main factors to promote the decline of the entire energy intensity. Finally, the suggestions of emissions reductions are put forward from the aspects of improving energy efficiency, optimizing energy structure and adjusting industrial structure etc.

The 1950S

Marxist economists and socialist planners share the view that the major objective of socialist economic development is to meet the needs of mass consumption. During the debates that followed the death of Mao Zedong in 1976 there was a searching examination of the extent to which development policy in the previous two or more decades had succeeded in raising living standards. A central premise of the policies of reform and Readjustment that emerged by the late 1970s from this debate was that consumption growth since the 1950s had been too slow. What was the evidence to support this contention? In what ways has policy since 1978 sought to redirect economic growth towards increased levels of consumption? Have these policies been successful and to what extent are they likely to continue to raise living standards?

The Impact

The condition of the effective development of agricultural enterprises in Ukraine is to increase the efficiency of using resource potential. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the main factors of the development, including the tax burden on the industry. Therefore, it is important to study the impact of the tax burden on the economic performance of the agricultural enterprises. The article deals with the improvement of the traditional two-factor production function of the Cobb-Douglas through the inclusion of the additional factors. The four-factorial production-institutional function of agricultural enterprises in Ukraine has been constructed allowing to calculate econometric parameters and to evaluate the functioning of the industry. The patterns of the interaction of tax burden and economic growth agricultural enterprises in Ukraine are revealed.  The calculated econometric parameters of the functioning of agricultural enterprises in Ukraine made it possible to determine the tax loadings points Laffer's of the first and second orders, the productivity of each factor, and the phased replacement of one factor to another. It has been proved that optimizing the tax burden on agricultural enterprises makes it possible to direct the resource potential to increase the agricultural volumes production and increase tax revenues from the industry.

Reduction Program

Trends in poverty and living standards in China were mixed during the period from 1949 to 1978. In the 1950s and 1970s, the more egalitarian distribution and increased production of food, combined with improvements in access to basic education and public health, reduced poverty, and improved living standards. During the Great Leap Forward period (1959–1962), however, the collapse of food production and the failure to take corrective measures led to widespread famine of historic proportions and a sharp decline in living standards. China’s subsequent tremendous success in reducing extreme poverty during the economic reform period (1978–2013) is widely recognized. World Bank estimates indicate that the number of absolute poor (that is, those people consuming less than $1.25 per day in Purchasing Power Parity terms) in China declined by more than 600 million from about 835 million in 1981 to 173 million in 2008. Based on a much more austere poverty line, official government estimates indicate that the number of poor was significantly lower than the World Bank estimates throughout the economic reform period but confirm a similar sharp decline in poverty over these years. Moreover, these consumption- and income- based estimates of the decline in poverty are matched by broad-based improvements in nutritional status, educational attainment, health, and other indicators of well-being since the late 1990s. While there is consensus on the massive reduction in poverty in China during the economic reform period, there is continuing debate on the effectiveness of the government’s poverty reduction program. Other important issues include the deterioration of access to basic education and public health in rural areas resulting from the dissolution of the commune system during 1978–1984 and the widening of income disparity beginning in the mid-1980s. In addition, while very large-scale Labor Migration has made a massive contribution to economic growth and poverty reduction, there are also many well-recognized adverse social consequences to this demographic trend. There is also concern that ethnic minority people, people with disabilities, the elderly, and women are known to represent disproportionately large shares of China’s remaining absolute poor and suffer the greatest deprivation. China has actively collaborated with a host of international partners on its poverty reduction program during the economic reform period. Consistent with China’s strong economic growth, the Chinese government has begun the transition from development aid recipient to aid donor, and is expanding its role in international poverty reduction and development work.

The general aim of the present chapter is to focus on the factors influencing simulation-based computersupported inquiry learning in small groups. The authors will give an overview of research that describes different factors influencing inquiry learning and problem solving and will add a dimension of collaborative web-based inquiry from their studies. The evidence from relevant scientific literature as well as the empirical results collected by the authors form the basis for discussion about designing an effective learning environment through a viewpoint of different end-users of our results – especially teachers and software designers. As a result, three additional main factors have been found that should be taken into account in designing support systems for problem solving: i) the level of difficulty of problems, ii) the appropriate sequence of problems, and iii) the characteristics of learners’ groups.
