1 Industry Review

2 Types of Economic Activities
Primary Sector Activities Secondary Sector Activities Tertiary Sector Activities Agriculture Raising animals Fishing Forestry Mining Refining petroleum Turning metal into tools and automobiles Manufacturing Trade Finance Real Estate Private services Government Transportation

3 “Industrialization and Economic Development”
Ch. 11 Industry + Ch. 9 Development

4 Key Issue 1: Why does development vary among countries?
HDI – Human Development Index Economic - GDP Per capita Social – literacy rate and amount of education Demographic – life expectancy

5 Human Development Index

6 Where did industry originate?

7 What did Europe look like prior to the Industrial Revolution?
Home based manufacturing (known as cottage industry) On a small scale Dress found at

8 The Industrial Revolution
Why did it begin in Great Britain? capitalist system guilds had created a middle class of workmen people free to form businesses education patent system encouraged development labor: Jethro Tull’s seed drill (1701) and other developments > improved productivity in farming > people can leave farms and work elsewhere

9 Why did it begin in Great Britain? (CONT)
raw materials (iron ore, coal) rivers, canals, harbors (ease in trade) small, compact size (iron and coal near rivers and harbors) existing banking system (borrow $ to buy machinery) stable political system colonies (guaranteed markets, additional raw materials)

10 Flow of Capital into Europe, 1775
Needed flow of capital in order to fuel the industrial revolution. United Provinces = The Dutch

11 Important Innovation 1 The Steam Engine Patented by James Watt in 1769
Was the first (there had been steam engines in ancient times) to be able to make one efficient enough to power other things than itself

12 Important Innovation 2 Puddling and rolling of iron
By Henry Cort in 1783 Iron purification process that increased the manufacture of iron Puddling furnace homepage.ntlworld.com/m.low1/PDF/iron_mill.pdf

13 Important Innovation 3 Railways or “iron horse” Two key inventions:
A locomotive using Watt’s steam engine Iron track The Rocket

14 Important Innovation 4 Chemicals
Sulfuric acid, chlorine gas and lime, vitriol Today, the largest textile factories are owned by chemical companies

15 Important Innovation 5 Food preservation techniques
Canning by Nicholas Appert (done in glass jars) Peter Durand’s tin can

16 economic: more goods at lower prices
Effects economic: more goods at lower prices social: available labor leaves farms and clusters in cities urban blight, pollution canned food (encourages new industry) political: surplus labor > mistreated workers > liberalism and communism

17 technological: > railroad, steamship
Effects technological: > railroad, steamship agricultural: > 2nd Agricultural Revolution increased productivity use of machinery > larger farms > enclosures demographic: caused move from Stage 1 to Stage 2 of DTM

18 Where is industry distributed? Key Issue #2

19 Diffusion of Industrial Revolution

20 Early diffusion eastward to Belgium, France, and Germany (early 1800s; delay due to Napoleonic Wars) further diffusion to Italy, Netherlands, Russia and Sweden by late 1800s U.S. not affected by political instability in Europe: diffusion by early 1800s 8,000 spindles of textiles in 1808 > 80,000 spindles by 1811 by Civil War, U.S. was world’s 2nd largest industrial power

21 Why do industries have different distributions?

22 Weber’s Model for the Location of Industry
Transportation Labor Agglomeration It is more expensive to move raw materials than it is to move final products. Short distances = use a truck Medium distances = use a train Long distances = use a ship You can locate your business further from market if the labor costs make up for the cost of the added distance If several industries cluster in one city, they can share talent, services and facilities.

23 Single-market manufacturers Costs of land, labor and capital
Situation Factors Site Factors Bulk gaining Bulk reducing Single-market manufacturers Costs of land, labor and capital Labor intensive industries look for cheap labor Footloose industries are so expensive to produce on their own that transportation to and from markets or factories is negligible

24 Situation factors Inputs Factory Consumers
Each industry has to consider what costs more: to transport inputs or to transport the final product to consumers? Factories are located to REDUCE cost

25 Other types of plants Perishable Products Single-market manufacturers
Located near the consumer Exs mostly include fresh foods Newspapers (kinda) Single-market manufacturers Make specialized parts to go into larger products Located near the consumer

26 How do inputs and products get from place to place?
Short answer: Trucks Trains Ships Air Important points Often times modes get mixed (might use planes and trucks etc.) Costs rise every time you switch from one mode to the next Break of bulk point- places like seaports and airports where you can transfer from one mode to the next easily

27 Land factors Factories likely to be located in suburbs and rural areas
Energy sources play a key role (are you next to hydroelectric power? Are you near coal fields?)

28 Labor factors Is your industry labor intensive? Do you pay a high percentage in wage? (note percentage does not equal high wages)

29 Capital Industry will locate where it is able to get capital from banks

30 Industrial Regions of the World
Primary Industrial Regions Secondary Industrial Regions Western and Central Europe Eastern North America Russia and the Ukraine Eastern Asia Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil in South America South Africa and Nigeria in Africa Coastal areas and the Ganges River are of India, Malaysia, and southern Australia

34 Economic Organizations
NAFTA- North American Free Trade Agreement- Mexico, US and Canada (helps explain the new international division of labor where some components of products are made in one country and others in another) The European Union- Most barriers to trade have been eliminated among them members of the EU. Countries that are not a part of the EU (Switzerland and Sweden) rely heavily on trade with the EU countries. East Asia does not have its own formal organization but it is an important trading bloc. ASEAN – Southeast Asian version of NAFTA.

35 What is deindustrialization and who is going through it?
More developed countries are decreasing the total number of manufacturing jobs in favor of service industry jobs The United States and Europe are experiencing this Japan is joining in this along with the Four Tiger economies (Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan)

36 Why are there disparities between countries
Why are there disparities between countries? What challenges exist for LDCs? Distance from markets Inadequate infrastructure Competition with existing manufacturers in other countries

37 Demographic Transition Model

38 Theories of Economic Development- Rostow’s Modernization Theory

39 Theories of Economic Development- Wallerstein’s Dependency Theory
Core countries Rich nations fuel the world’s economy and take raw materials from the rest of the world Periphery countries Colonialism drew in low income countries that support the rich via cheap labor and a large market for industrial products Countries of Semiperiphery These countries are somewhere in between. They are still dominated by the core.
