Carl Sauer: cultural landscape
Thomas Malthus: population growth faster than food supply
Rostow: stage of economic development US economist Walter Rostow, argued that countries would progress through five stages
Progressive stages of economic growth. Rostow Model
Strength of the Modernization model: Over the long term, all countries are capable of development. It has proved to works for some countries: Singapore, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan (Asian Dragons) the American South, Czech Republic, Ireland
Rostow’s model did not account for regional constraints
Wallerstein: core-periphery model Immanuel Wallerstein, a leading advocate of the approach characterizes the world system as a set of mechanisms which redistributes resources from the periphery to the core.
Dependency School of Thought/Model (1970s). Sees low development levels as being a result of the LDCs economic dependency on the MDCs.
Dependency real world strategies. Invest and improve human welfare (education, health, food, water, and shelter needs). redistribute capital in more even manner (socialism) a bottom-up strategy
import substitution: an LDC tries to develop its own industries instead of importing manufactured goods from the MDCs
nationalization: To convert from private to governmental ownership and control (natural resources)
high import tariffs (to protect infant home- grown industries) Self sufficiency (economic independence)
Von Thunen’s Agricultural Model A land use model used to explain the importance of proximity to the market in the choice of crops on commercial farms(this created a concentric pattern: circles sharing the same centers Von Thunen’s Agricultural Model A land use model used to explain the importance of proximity to the market in the choice of crops on commercial farms(this created a concentric pattern: circles sharing the same centers)
Because farmers must pay to transport their produce to the market, and these costs are directly proportional to distance, the profit for each product declines as a straight line with increasing distance from the market
Weber’s least cost theory accounted for the location of a manufacturing plant in terms of the owner’s desire to minimize three categories of costs. 1. Transportation 2. Labor 3. Agglomeration
Do Activity
Weber's model attempts to explain industrial location.
B. Transporting raw materials costs less than finished product (maybe finished product delicate/more packaging)
C. Transporting raw materials costs more than finished product (loss in bulk)
Christaller : central place theory
FR Define and describe the major principles of Walter Christaller’s central place theory. central place: a settlement in which certain types of goods and services are available to consumers.
Walter Christaller formulated the Central place theory: A theory that explains the distribution of services, based on the fact that settlements serve as centers of market areas for services.
larger settlements are fewer and farther apart than smaller settlements
larger settlements provide services for a larger number of people who are willing to travel farther.
towns and cities (central places) tend to be arranged in clear, orderly hierarchies
Under ideal circumstances (on flat plains, with good transportation in every direction),with hexagonal-shaped market areas of different sizes arranged around different-sized places
FR Draw a diagram to help illustrate the central place theory. Extra material in notes to help understand for the FR Note: look at the 4 different size of market areas
