Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa3 application of economics to manage naturally occurring resources for human needs/wants with efficiency as the primary goal Economic Resources
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa4 The relationship between population and economic growth
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa5 The nature of this relationship is argumentativeness Where there is three trends or arguments:
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa6 The first argument saw that rapid population growth contribute in economic growth. The first argument saw that rapid population growth contribute in economic growth.
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa7 Therefore: the rapid population growth is not the main cause of underdevelopment
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa8 The second argument saw that rapid population growth is obstacle in economic growth. The second argument saw that rapid population growth is obstacle in economic growth.
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa9 Therefore: the rapid population growth is the main cause of underdevelopment
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa10 The third argument saw that rapid population growth is a. The third argument saw that rapid population growth is a n intermediate position.
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa11 There are many measurements related to population growth concept:
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa12 There are many measurements related to population growth concept, and population distribution
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa13 Population growth measurements 1.Birth rate. 2.Death rate. 3.Numbers of natural increase. 4.Rate of natural increase.
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa14 No. of Death No. of Birth No. of pop (million (million)Year
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa15 Requires : 1.Test the existence of the Malthusian theory. 2.Calculate the birth rate. 3.Calculate the death rate. 4.Compute the numbers of natural increase. 5.Compute the rate of natural increase.
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa16 Population distribution measurements
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa17 There four measurements of population distribution :
Slides Prepared By:Dr.Abdelmohsen Mostafa18 1-Mathematical density. 2- physiological density. 3- Agricultural density. 4- General Economic density.
