LESSON 6: NEW FORCES
Introduction
In this lesson we will look at opportunities and challenges to development. We will gain a different
understanding and perspective of this topic based on experts’ views. The assigned readings will provide
further explanation and you will come to understand how different their views on development are.
New Forces in Development
How do bad leaders, corruption, bad institutions and policies, and even rich nations exacerbate problems through
high barriers to trade? What are possible solutions? Some solutions might include forgiving debt (but we should
recognize that this is not the complete solution), as well as removing barriers to global integration, encouraging
local regional trade, eliminating tariffs and quotas for highly indebted nations, and fostering economic freedom
/reforms. The Global Policy Forum website summarizes many of these factors, and posts articles that focus on many
important issues in development, as summarized in the image below. Please click on the link in the Reading and
Resources folder to access the Global Policy Forum website section on Poverty and Development in Africa in

In making our assessment of economics and the international system, we must also recognize the impact of
culture on economic performance. Culture includes the peculiarities of local history, social structure,
psychology, religion, norms, and politics. While the apostles of globalization contend that market forces
overwhelm everything else, others such as Paul Krugman and Jeffrey Sachs powerfully counter-argue that
geography is itself a limit to globalization. Just think of what it means to be a landlocked country, and how
much extra it costs to bring goods to ports for trade in an open, competitive system. Add to these
complications of physical geography other factors such as climate, tropical location, local traditions, and the
picture becomes complicated quickly. If we include the dynamics of culture and geography, we begin to
understand why traditional macro-economic measures may have less of an impact than many previously
assumed they would in the international system.
What are the effects of economic globalization on poor countries? Since the backlash demonstrations
against globalization at the ministerial meetings in Seattle and Genoa in the late 1990s, this question has
entered public debate. Neither globalization nor protests, however, are new. Indeed, throughout the history
of development economics, attention to the implications of international integration has been of prime
in.

Each one of the three kinds of trade agreements is evenly significant to the United States. First, a consensual understanding is a trade agreement between two countries (Zeng 2012). For instance, when the United States and China arrived at a trade agreement (Zeng 2012). A consensual trade agreement is vital to the United States because it helps individuals operate in distinct businesses that engage the two countries. For instance, the United States prohibited Huawei from working here, several individuals in the United States and China suffered (Campion 2020). Thus, there are individuals in both countries that lost their occupations. A bilateral trade agreement would have protected such disciplines and warranted that the salary and profits of thousands of individuals are guarded (Campion 2020).
A regional trade agreement is a commercial agreement that engages nations in a particular area (Labonté, Gleeson and McNamara 2020). An exceptional illustration of a regional trade agreement is the U.S. – Canada – Mexico agreement that superseded NAFTA (North Atlantic Trade Agreement). This trade agreement permits individuals from both nations to transfer and exchange supplies, commodities. It produces among the three countries without forfeiting unnecessary tariffs and tolls that individuals from other countries would have to lose (Labonté, Gleeson and McNamara 2020). Such profits are vital to the U.S. because it permits American manufacturers to multiply their markets further than the borders of the United States.
An international trade agreement is an understanding that implicates the majority, if not all, nations worldwide. An example of a global trade agreement is the World Trade Organization Agreement. The World Trade Organization establishes commerce and business strategies that nations worldwide follow to ensure that marketing and business
are directed and overseen effortlessly and efficiently (Zeng 2012). Suppose the World Trade Organization did not exist. In that case, many nations may begin seizing the benefit of their financial authority and influence to obtain additional power when negotiating and exchanging with other countries. Nevertheless, the World Trade Organization is inexistent to make sure that there is impartiality and fairmindedness. This objectivity likewise clearly impacts the United States.
Free trade is as significant as a democracy to the wellbeing of world stability; free trade is essential (Mead 2021). It has accomplished much more than all of the global foreign relief bureaucrats to enhance living norms and means and amplify chances for individuals in developing markets. In contributing to poor and productive countries a mutual interest in peacetime and solidity of the international structure, free trade achieves greater than NGOs and advocates to endorse peace (Mead 2021). The reason for free trade is presently obsolete, and forming a trade outline for the 21st century will be difficult (Mead 2021). Yet, i ...

The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

Adjusting OpenMP PageRank : SHORT REPORT / NOTESSubhajit Sahu
For massive graphs that fit in RAM, but not in GPU memory, it is possible to take
advantage of a shared memory system with multiple CPUs, each with multiple cores, to
accelerate pagerank computation. If the NUMA architecture of the system is properly taken
into account with good vertex partitioning, the speedup can be significant. To take steps in
this direction, experiments are conducted to implement pagerank in OpenMP using two
different approaches, uniform and hybrid. The uniform approach runs all primitives required
for pagerank in OpenMP mode (with multiple threads). On the other hand, the hybrid
approach runs certain primitives in sequential mode (i.e., sumAt, multiply).

Article
1. Article 5: Should rich countries pay more for
climate change?
Developing nations have said the issue of loss and damage is a 'red line' which must be addressed
for talks in Warsaw to progress. Karl Mathiesen investigates the basis for the demands and how
it could impact progress at the climate conference. Taraska said that the moral argument for
compensation by rich countries is redundant within the politics of climate change. Developed
countries see the issue as a Pandora's Box of limitless liability that they simply refuse to touch.
Couple this with the reality that despite their affluence, rich countries don't have the money to
underwrite a succession of calamities like typhoon Haiyan and you have a "non-starter". There is
another school of thought that says, if developed countries were serious about reducing carbon
emissions then they would not see loss and damage compensation as a major concern. At the
very least this says something about the pessimism which surrounds the global mitigation effort.
The language of this debate is slightly tortured. Advocates of the loss and damage mechanism
have distanced themselves from discussing compensation directly. They say a mechanism would
deal primarily with research to minimize losses, sharing knowledge, insurance, and risk retention
and solidarity payments. There should be a commitment to accommodate climate refugees in
developed countries. All of these measures will cost money. The claim that this is not about
some kind of financial reimbursement or transaction seems disingenuous. I feel that West can
afford it, developed countries are obliged to support at least some of these measures.
The non-cooperation of the US and others on this issue smacks of protectionism - closing the
portholes and hunkering down. Loss and damage caused by climate change will be a result of
unsuccessful mitigation and adaptation. Thankfully, a loss and damage mechanism could be built
in a way which assuages wealthy nation’s fears of creeping compensation claims. This could
allow some measure of success to emerge from the meeting currently taking place. Reports that
the issue is polarizing the Warsaw talks appear to be overblown, mostly because of the much
tweeted 'walk out'. Yes, this issue is contentious and developing countries are frustrated by the
lack of progress. But it seems unlikely to destabilize the talks. What it may do, should a
consensus be reached, is give momentum and a patina of success to an otherwise lusterless
conference.
