China runs a large but diminishing trade surplus with Japan[60] (slight deficit if Hong Kong is included).[61][62] There has been a significant rise in the Chinese standard of living in recent years. Today, a rapidly declining 10 percent of the Chinese population is below the poverty line. 90.9% of the population is literate, [63] compared to 20% in 1950.[64] The life expectancy in China is the third highest in East Asia, after Japan and South Korea. There is a large wealth disparity between the coastal regions and the remainder of the country. To counter this potentially destabilizing problem, the government has initiated the China Western Development strategy (2000), the Revitalize Northeast China initiative (2003), and the Rise of Central China policy (2004), which are all aimed at helping the interior of China to catch up. China is undergoing major reforms in its financial sector, which has been plagued by nonperforming loans made in the
Changing career: 'These days, I go home feeling relaxed' Starting a new career is a daunting prospect for many. But Kate Hilpern discovers that plenty of help is at hand Some of the jobs that career changers are most keen to break into PR and teaching, among them are the very same jobs that people are queuing to get out of, says John Lees, author of How to Get a Job You'll Love and Take Control of Your Career. Many of us get to the point, whether in our twenties, thirties, forties or fifties where we decide to change careers. Some of us will make radical changes, while others will move to the edge of their comfort zone, perhaps shifting from acupuncturist to homeopath or PR office to journalist. But the key to making the right decision, says Lees, is to bring your dream back down to life with a hard thump. "I always say to people, 'Find out what you will actually be doing in the job of your dreams. What does the nitty-gritty day-...
ManOS Overview Everything below is rooted in my core value of creating selfesteem. My actions today focus on work, girls, travel & having fun. My career is the ultimate leverage point as this creates the money, selfesteem and confidence. The money allows me to travel and the selfesteem & confidence allow me to live the lifestyle that is congruent with drawing in girls. Long term (5+ years), I want my life to offer value to the world by having a beneficial impact on those around me. I am obviously not clear how I will do this, so for now, I am focused on taking the greatest strides possible over the next few years, to better put me in a position to achieve my long term goal. 1. Career Vision I want to earn the rank of manager in my firm within the next 3 years. I want to earn the respect and trust of fellow employees. I want to become an integral member of my team by providing distinct and high quality service to my clie...
has deepened again. When analyzing the data on transition countries, the favorable impact of more equal dist- ribution on domestic saving and investment turned out. Thus, the leveling of too unequal distribution generates future economic growth. The bigger is the private sector share in economy, the bigger is the pressure on the less equal income distribution. An unequal distribution is a characteristic of poor countries. It is possible to diminish inequality in along with the rise of wealth level. The results of the analysis lead to the conclusion that the income distribution in Estonia today does not correspond to neither the level of economic performance, cultural beliefs of the population, nor the European customs. If Estonia's wish to join with EU is serious, it is necessary to take steps for leveling the distribution of income. 141

Their tastes aren't completely different from other people's, because a lot of the towns they like most in the US are also big tourist destinations: San Francisco, Boston, Seattle. But their tastes can't be quite mainstream either, because they dislike other big tourist destinations, like New York, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas. There has been a lot written lately about the "creative class." The thesis seems to be that as wealth derives increasingly from ideas, cities will prosper only if they attract those who have them. That is certainly true; in fact it was the basis of Amsterdam's prosperity 400 years ago. A lot of nerd tastes they share with the creative class in general. For example, they like well-preserved old neighborhoods instead of cookie-cutter suburbs, and locally-owned shops and restaurants instead of national chains
English literature is one of the oldest literatures in Europe; dates back to the 6th century AD. Oral literature, i.e. not written down, spread from person to person. In 449 AD Anglo-‐Saxon tribes invaded England – beginning of the Anglo-‐Saxon period in English literature. The first form of literature was folklore, carried by scops and gleemen, who sang in alliterative verse (a kind of simple poetry). Prose developed much later. The first form of recorded English literature was the epic Beowulf, which was produced sometime near the end of the 7th and beginning of the 8th century. It has no ...

rooms, and rooms upstairs for the storage of goods. The entrance hall typically had a higher ceiling than the adjacent rooms, as well as a staircase leading to the upstairs rooms. Goods were usually hoisted to the upper floors directly from the street with the help of winches that would raise them to hatches visible on the front of the house. The entrance hallway served as the merchant's workroom and front office, which he would decorate with ashlars' stones as fine as his wealth would allow. The doors leading to the interior rooms were also decorated as grandly as possible. Heat rose into the living room from a stove in the basement. Making a fire in the stove would cause the stones that covered it to become hot; the smoke was vented out through the chimney. Once the heating of the stove was completed, the chimney register was closed, and the warm air was let into the living room through openings in the floor. This peculiarly

The aim of the Guidelines is to assist reporting organisations and their stakeholders in articulating and understanding contributions of the reporting organisations to sustainable development. Trends The key trends during the last two years are: Expanding globalization – Expansion of global capital markets and information technology continue to bring unprecedented opportunities for the creation of new wealth. Search for new forms of global governance – Globalisation challenges the capacity of existing international institutions to govern corporate activity. Reform of corporate governance – Pressures on corporations to establish and maintain high standards of internal governance are accelerating. Global role of emerging economies – The same globalization, accountability, and governance trends evident in industrial nations are taking root in emerging economies.
classes. The building of a new society based on these people was an outrageous challenge. The most cunning and skilful of the convicts became later the founders of prominent colonial families. Until 1830s the convicts were harshly punished for almost no reason, flogging being the most common penalty. During the 1850s, the settlement was boosted by gold rushes. Gold was first found at Bayhurst in 1851. Scarcity of labour (tööjõupuudus), the vastness of the bush, and new wealth based on farming, mining and trade all contributed to the development of uniquely Australian social institutions and sensibilities. The idea of unifying all the states first came to Earl Grey in 1847. It was only on January 1, 1901, that the Australian colonies federated to become the Commonwealth of Australia. As neither Sydney nor Melbourne was an acceptable new capital, a new city Canberra was built as a result of an architectural competition. Geographical position
The report of forested areas on the strange new coast encouraged further explorations by Norse colonists from Greenland, whose settlers lacked lumber. In AD 1000 Leif Eriksson became the first European to land in North America. According to the sagas this was the first of many Norse voyages to the eastern shores of the continent. Leif Eriksson established a colony what the Vikings described as Vinland. By 1600 the wealth from the fur trade and the fishing industry renewed French interests in North America. The King of France decided to settle what is now eastern Canada. The colony would be named New France. But for that claim to be internationally recognized the region had to be successfully colonized by the French. To avoid the high costs of building the settlements the King of France made an agreement with a private furtrading company
premeditates injuring another is afraid that, if he does not do so, he may himself be made to suffer some hurt. But, for the most part, people are led to wrong-doing in order to secure some personal end; in this vice, avarice is generally the controlling motive. Again, men seek riches partly to supply the needs of life, partly to secure the enjoyment of pleasure. With those who cherish higher ambitions, the desire for wealth is entertained with a view to power and influence and the means of bestowing favours; Marcus Crassus, for example, not long since declared that no amount of wealth was enough for the man who aspired to be the foremost citizen of the state, unless with the income from it he could maintain an army. Fine establishments and the comforts of life in elegance and abundance also afford pleasure, and the desire to secure it gives rise to the insatiable thirst for wealth

Anglo- Saxons were warrior farmers from Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands. Later in the 5th century, Anglo-Saxons settled just west of Londinium, around the Strand, and formed the town of Lundenwic. The area of the old Roman city became a landing-place for ships and a centre for trade.The first English King to convert to Christianity, King Ethelbert, founded St Paul's Cathedral in 604. The Vikings 8th and 9th century By the 9th century, London was a very prosperous trading centre, and its wealth attracted the attention of Danish Vikings. The Danes periodically sailed up the Thames and attacked London. In 851 some 350 longboats full of Danes attacked and burned London to the ground. King Alfred the Great totally defeated the Danes in 878 and they split the country between them. The Danes took eastern England including London while Alfred took the South and West. Alfred's men took London in 886 and repaired the walls of the old Roman city. In 1016
The colonial period is almost entirely limited to portraiture (deemed as `useful' by settlers). These first paintings were made by limners and artisans without formal training and were based on what was popular in England during the Tudors. The paintings are technically unskilled, strongly patterned, flat and linear. Spanish painting in America was mostly religious. In C18, painting was a luxury and necessitated wealth that had by then become available. Portraitures remained at the forefront because the rich could thusly display their status and because it was less "frivolous" than other forms of painting. In early-C18, Baroque was imitated (handsome settings, rich chiaroscuro, rich color and painterly execution). Paintings became gradually more elaborate. During mid-C18, the new immigrants introduced the style of Rococo (gracious, charming and pretty). Exemplary artist

Costaguana has a long history of tyranny, revolution and warfare, but has recently experienced a period of stability under the dictator Ribiera. Charles Gould is a native Costaguanero of English descent who owns an important silver-mining concession near the key port of Sulaco. He is tired of the political instability in Costaguana and its concomitant corruption, and uses his wealth to support Ribiera's government, which he believes will finally bring stability to the country after years of misrule and tyranny by self-serving dictators. Instead, Gould's refurbished silver mine and the wealth it has generated inspires a new round of revolutions and self-proclaimed warlords, plunging Costaguana into chaos.

Vajati uudseid praktilisi moraalseid juhiseid, mis lähtudes individualismist suudaksid korraldada üha arvukamaid masse, tootmisvahendeid ning nende vahelisi suhteid. 1776. aastal kirjutas Adam Smith oma kiirelt kuulsust kogunud peateose ,,An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations", kus ta tutvustab turumajanduse iseregulatiivset võimet nn. ,,nähtamatu käe" tööprintsiipi ja win-win põhimõtet. Smithi teos pakub tänapäevani alust palavateks aruteludeks. 1789 samal aastal kui puhkes Suur Prantsuse Revolutsioon, ilmus Jeremy Benthami ,,Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation", kus on põhjalikult kirjeldatud utilitarismi tööfunktsiooni optimaalse tulemuse leidmist inimhulga ja naudingu korrutise maksimaalväärtusest.

Thus, the critique of bureaucracy will remain permanent as well."

"The direct correlation between the capabilities of government and countries' development ... is based on vast historical evidence. The most powerful nations' strength and ability to create and distribute wealth cannot be explained without acknowledging the central role of public institutions." (Echebarría 2001: 1) And this is not limited to the "First World". Ever since the study by Evans and Rauch of 35 "developing" countries (1999), we also know empirically that Weberianism, especially the Merit principle, "significantly enhance[s] prospects of economic growth."

councils. Baha'is in Iran have had to suffer persecution because of their religious beliefs very beginning. Bahá'u'lláh' key revelation is consistent. He taught that "the world is one country and mankind its citizens". His writings contain principles, laws and institutions of the world's civilizations, including the elimination of all kinds of prejudice, gender equality, the world's major religions, Latte, and at the very least a common recognition of the unity, wealth and the elimination of extreme poverty, universal compulsory education, each person's responsibility to seek the truth independently, supported by the principles of collective security federal recognition and the creation of the world, that religion is in accordance with reason and science. These ideals are the result of the detention of Baha'i congregation actively supported by international organizations such as the United Nations
Invention that gets out in to the world is innovation. In many fields, something new must be substantially different to be innovative, not an insignificant change, e.g., in the arts, economics, business and government policy. In economics the change must increase value, customer value, or producer value. The goal of innovation is positive change, to make someone or something better. Innovation leading to increased productivity is the fundamental source of increasing wealth Innovatsiooni liigid: – tehnoloogiline innovatsioon – uued tehnilised lahendused (päikesepatarei, wifi) – turundusinnovatsioon – uuenduslike müügimeetodi tekasutuselevõtmine. – organisatsiooniline innovatsioon – muudatused ettevõtte struktuuris ja juhtimises – toote või teenuse innovatsioon – uus või oluliselt täiendatud toode – finantsinnovatsioon – uute finantsiliste toodete ja teenuste arendamine

meet people from all over the world, to see what the outside world is about and to expand my way of thinking. Whilst these perspectives do convey a cosmopolitan sensibility, the notion of cross- cultural mobility engendering cosmopolitanism has been subject to intense scrutiny. Skrbis, Kendall and Woodward (2004) remind us that behind the abstract ideal of cosmopolitanism often lurks the privileges of wealth and citizenship of the mobile elite, whilst John Urry warns in an interview with Blok (2005, p. 81) that to position one as cosmopolitan is to try to produce ‘superior cultural capital over and against others’. Andreas (Swedish, 25), for example, used his consumption of ‘exotic’ foods as a way to try to distinguish himself from his friends in Sweden: ‘I go home and I have a completely different taste because I’ve tasted foods from across the world that they might never have heard of
kolmele majanduse põhiküsimusele üksikisiku tasemel. Kuna valdavaks on seejuures eraomandus, siis langetatakse ka enamik majandusotsustusi erasektori (üksikisikute ja eraettevõtjate) tasandil. Ettevõtetevahelise konkurentsi erinevatel vormidel peatutakse pikemalt 8. peatükis. 10 Soti majandusteadlane ja filosoof Adam Smith (17231790) sai kuulsaks oma raamatuga An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776), milles ta analüüsis majanduslikud vabaduse olemust ja tagajärgi. Rahvaste rikkus tähistas majandusteooria kui iseseisva teadusharu tekkimist. Mikro- ja makroökonoomika Sissejuhatus Nii nagu maailmas ei ole olemas täiuslikku käsumajandust, nii pole olemas puhtal kujul ka täiuslikult vaba, olelusvõitlusele tuginevat majandussüsteemi.

Suured leiutised 18. saj. teisel poolel: ketrus- ja kudumismasinad, 1784 aurumasin, 1797 treipink, mille lõiketera oli juhitav, 1807 aurulaev, 1825 esimene raudtee, 1876 telefon. 1759. a. avaldas Smith oma kogutud loengud eetikast ja moraalist pealkirja all „Moraalitundmuste teooria“. 1776. a. ilmus Adam Smithi ligi 10 aastat kirjutatud teos „Uurimus rahvaste rikkuse loomusest ja põhjustest” ehk lihtsalt „Rahvaste rikkus“ (An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations) Raamatus esitas Smith turumajandusel rajaneva ühiskonna uue majandussüsteemi raamistiku. Esimene peatükk raamatust on pealkirjaga „Tööjaotus”. Vajadused sunnivad üha rohkem tootma, suurendama ühiskonna rikkust. Mingi maa või rahva kogutoodang võib suureneda kas töö tõhustamise või tööhulga suurenemise teel. Töö tõhusus omakorda sõltub tööliste oskuste ja vilumuste kasvust ja /või täiustatud masinatest ning seadmetest.
kirjutas kodanluse ajaloo. Tema peatöö liberalismi osas ,,Lehrbuch des Vernunftrechts und der Staatwissenschaften" 1829-1835. see polnud ainult riigiteoreetiline vaid ka saksa ajaloo realismile alusepanija. Ta oli suur preisi ühendamise vastane, rõhutades, et kui saksamaa riigikestel on olla vaba ilma ühendamata, on see olla parem kui preisi hegemoonia all ning mittevaba. SBs liberalismi aluseks Adam Smithi ,,The Wealth of Nations" poliitökonoomia rajaja. Smithi arvates oli rikkuse allikaks töö ja tootmine. Riigi ülesanne on kindlustada, et liberaalne vaba turumajandus toimiks, mitte ei sekkuks. Adam Smithi teooriaid arendas edasi David Ricardo ,,poliitökonoomia printsiipides". Ta siiski kritiseeris veidi Smithi, kes ütles, et töös ei peitu õnn, sest rikkaks ei saa mitte tööline vaid ettevõtja. SB teiseks nurgakiviks on utilitaristide koolkond (kasulikkuse õpetus) James
individualism (independence, goals, competition, uniqueness, privacy) and those emphasizing collectivism (relatedness, belonging, duty, harmony, advice, group work). Hofstede was the first who proposed theoretical account of individualism and collectivism. He collected his evidence by surveying IBM's multi-national workers from 40 different countries. One of his key findings was that individualism correlates to the wealth of the country (people in these countries don't have such a need to depend on each other). There has been increasing criticism and research on individualism-collectivism. It has been pointed out that his sample was predominantly male, and was drawn only from specific group of people and his data is very old by now. A more devastating attack on him is the findings that individualism and collectivism are essentially independent or uncorrelated with each other. Gelfand et al

*St George He is immortalised in the tale of George and the Dragon. According to this story he saved a maiden in distress from a dragon. His memorial is celebrated on 23 April. St. George is a very popular saint and is the patron saint of England, Georgia, Greece, Russia and many other countries. George was offered gifts of land, money and slaves if he made a sacrifice to the Pagan gods, but he refused. So, he was executed for his refusal. Before the execution George gave his wealth to the poor and after his death, the Christians soon came to honor him as a martyr. *St Andrew He is the patron saint of Scotland. He was a very humble man and to honour the Savior he had himself crucified on the X-shaped cross. It was not a regular cross, because he did not want to put himself on the same level than the Christ. The flag of Scotland feature St Andrew's X-shaped cross. The feast of Saint Andrew is held on November 30 in both the
