Grænser og vækst i et lands økonomi

Abstract

The study investigates in whether there are limits of economic growth. To start with, I have accounted the economic growth and the impact of humans’ use of resources. I have also examined how economic growth affects a country’s economy. I have compared China and Nigeria. I have had an increased focus on food production, energy consumption and CO₂ emissions. I have chosen to compare China and Nigeria because I think it gives a good example on the inequality. To describe the inequality between the two countries I have used Gini-coefficient. To end of with I have discussed whether there are limits or not. If the world does not change on the large inequality there is, and making a decoupling, I believe there is a limit to growth.

Indledning

Siden 1864 har Danmark ikke været en aktiv del af krige. Der dukker hele tiden nye fortolkninger op, og i år udkommer en tv-serie omhandlende 1864. Det giver anledning til at stille spørgsmål ved et af danskernes dybeste sår: nederlaget i 1864.

En af de helt vigtige personer i denne sammenhæng er krigsgeneralen de Meza. Jeg vil redegøre for hans beslutning om at rømme Dannevirke og årene op til krigen i 1864. [Læs mere…]

Den amerikanske drøm

Abstract

The study investigates the relation between inequality and whether the American dream is a realistic possibility for everyone in the United States. To measure inequality the term Ginikoefficient is used. The study uses mathematical illustrations, polomial regression and integral calculus to explain this term. Futhermore the study investegates the problem by making a comparative rhethorical analysis of the speeches State of Union by Barack Obama from 2014 and Paul Ryan speech on poverty at Cleveland State Univerity from 2012. The analysis shows that the speeches especially characterizes the missing opportunity of having a proper education. The solution to this problem is to strengthen the middle class and the communities and lower the price on education. The study finds that the possibilities of the American dream is strongly influenced by the inequality according to the speeches. It is not a realistic posibility for the lower class and the middle class, because they end up in bad schools. The upper class can afford proper education, so the American dream is still a possibility for this group. All in all is the American dream only a realistic possibility for everyone to a minor extent.
