Types of unemployment
This document provides information about unemployment. It begins with questions to prompt thinking about reasons for unemployment and calculations of GDP per capita. It then discusses why unemployment is a problem for individuals and society, and how it can cause recessions by reducing consumer spending, investments, exports and imports. The document defines key economic concepts like the labor force and unemployment rate calculation. It outlines the different types of unemployment, including frictional from job searching, seasonal for certain jobs, cyclical from declines in GDP, and structural from long-term economic changes. Charts show unemployment rates for the US and Arizona. Students are assigned tasks to demonstrate their understanding of unemployment types and the GDP formula.

This document reports on a study that tested how providing simple factual information about different areas of US-India relations impacts Indian attitudes toward the US and their willingness to learn more. The study found that while most facts did not significantly influence opinions, information about trade worsened views, while facts about entertainment and the environment stimulated more interest in learning more. The conclusions were that isolated facts have limited ability to shape public opinion but some issues are better able to garner additional interest in relations.
Types of unemployment
This document contains questions, graphs, and information about unemployment rates and types of unemployment. It asks the reader to calculate unemployment rates based on labor force statistics and describes the main types of unemployment: frictional, seasonal, cyclical, and structural unemployment. It provides assignments for students to illustrate and describe different types of unemployment and calculate GDP components.

This document discusses different types of migration including internal, international, and forced migration. It provides examples and definitions of key migration terms. The positive and negative impacts of migration are outlined for both source and host countries.

The document discusses three scenarios for managing migration from Mexico to the United States: (1) keeping the current quota of green cards, (2) cutting legal migration for one year, or (3) increasing quotas for skilled workers while reducing unskilled migration. Over 11% of Mexico's population lives abroad, with 143,000 Mexican migrants receiving green cards in 2012 alone. The U.S. government faces pressure to reduce Mexican immigration as tensions rise.
Why is Africa Poor?
This document discusses factors that may limit the number of billionaires in Africa compared to other parts of the world, such as the United States. It aims to understand challenges facing wealth generation in different societies and reasons for lack of wealth in Africa. While environmental obstacles can impact development, political and historical factors often have a larger effect. Common challenges in Africa like disease, drought, floods, war, corruption, and being landlocked are explored as possible limitations on wealth production compared to wealthier nations with more political stability that have hundreds of billionaires.
Braind drain
Brain drain refers to the emigration of skilled professionals from developing to developed countries. Historically, brain drains occurred from rural to urban areas and from Europe to North America. Developing countries experience outflows of individuals like engineers, medical professionals, and scientists to developed countries due to factors like higher wages, better opportunities, and advanced research facilities in developed nations. This mass emigration of human capital represents a loss of resources for developing countries.
