China 2050
China's economy has grown at an average of 9-10% annually for 30 years, allowing it to become the second largest economy in the world behind only the United States. If China maintains 7% growth, its economy will double in size within a decade and surpass the current size of the American economy, making China the world's largest economy, possibly as early as 2014 according to IMF projections. Over the next 50 years, China is expected to undergo further dramatic shifts that will impact not only its domestic situation but also the global economy.

The housing market has corrected significantly with home prices falling and affordability ratios declining. Housing production and starts are at their lowest levels since World War II. Completions and placements are nearing the low point seen from 1974-1983. However, household growth has slowed, vacancy rates remain high, employment growth has not reduced unemployment, and foreclosures continue to put pressure on prices. While long-run housing demand is estimated to be over 16 million units from 2010-2020 if headship rates remain steady, the recovery will likely be slow due to ongoing headwinds in the market like high inventory and tight credit.

How long will your dental veneers last
Porcelain veneers are thin shells made of porcelain that are bonded to the front of teeth. They can transform a dull smile and last over 20 years if cared for properly. Veneers are a good option for slightly misaligned or discolored teeth and usually require only minimal tooth structure removal. Good candidates have experienced tooth damage or cracking. Regular brushing and visits to the dentist are needed to ensure veneers remain in good condition.

Part I (2-3 pages)
In part I you should present qualitative information that you consider
important in understanding the development process of the country such
as a brief economic and political history of the country as well as social
or cultural characteristics that are important to understand the country’s
economic development.
You may find relevant qualitative information about the country in
books, newspapers (such as New York Times and the Wall Street Journal),
and magazines (such as Times, Newsweek, and The Economist). Be aware
that, among other things, proper referencing of your sources of information
in the main text is required to receive high marks for part I. Also, a map of
the country should be placed in Appendix A at the end of your paper.
Part II (8-10 pages)
In part II you should present and discuss quantitative information re-
garding the main economic performance variables followed by the various
determinants of development: demographics, capital accumulation, human
capital formation, income inequality, government role and performance, ge-
ographic factors, and international linkages.
Graphs and/or tables of as many variables as possible should be pre-
sented in Appendix B at the end of your paper. Label your graphs and
tables using increasing numerals: B1, B2, B3, ...
Be aware that, among other things, proper referencing of your graphs
and tables in the main text is required to receive high marks for part II.

tables using increasing numerals: B1, B2, B3, ...
Be aware that, among other things, proper referencing of your graphs
and tables in the main text is required to receive high marks for part II.
Most importantly, when you discuss the graphs selected for part II make
sure you include both a simple description of the graph as well as an eco-
nomic explanation of what is shown in the graph.
Below you find a list of potential variables you may want to discuss
in part II. Time series indicates that you should be able to collect data
covering most of the years between 1960 and the last year in your data set.
Select years means that you should start with the latest year for which data
are available and then work backward to add as many years as possible.
Note that the following list is fairly detailed - you may not be able to find
data on all variables listed below. As a rule of thumb, you should aim to
produce between 35 and 40 graphs for this part. Part II should have eight
subsections in the same order as the ones on the syllabus. These graphs and
tables should contain information on your chosen country only.
List of potential variables to be discussed in Part II and III:
1. Economic Performance
(a) GDP per capita in constant U.S. Dollars
(b) GDP per capita in constant PPP-adjusted U.S. Dollars
(c) average growth rate of GDP Per Capita per decade (in constant
or PPP-adjusted U.S. Dollars) (i.e., 60s, 70, 80s, 90s, 00s)
(d) unemployment rate

Our latest “Trends and Views” piece addresses the concept of urbanization in Latin America,
and its potential impact on the region’s real estate market.
Jamestown Latin America Trends + Views: Urbanization in Latin America
The document discusses urbanization trends in Latin America and their implications for the housing market. It notes that Latin America is the most urbanized developing region, with over 80% of the population living in cities. Rapid urbanization has been driven by economic opportunities and quality of life factors in cities. However, urbanization has also created challenges around infrastructure, housing shortages, and inequality. The real estate market has grown in response to demand from urban populations but still faces issues around affordability and supply.

ABOUT THIS REPORT
In over 100 countries around the world, Nielsen provides the most complete understanding of what consumers watch and buy. In the
U.S., Nielsen has delivered insights about consumers for almost 90 years. The Hispanic Market Imperative offers a fresh perspective
on the Hispanic consumer segment of the U.S. economy. This report highlights the importance of the Latino market and provides
insights to help marketers succeed in the opportunities that lie ahead.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The U.S. Hispanic population is the largest minority segment and is growing at a dramatic rate towards ethnic plurality, which
has already occurred in the most populous states and is beginning to occur among the U.S. baby population. Ethnic plurality
refers to the coexistence of numerous ethnicities and races with no one segment in the majority. If the present U.S. economy
substantially benefits from Hispanics, the future U.S. economy will depend on Hispanics by virtue of demographic change and
the social and cultural shifts expected to accompany their continued growth.
It has become increasingly important to challenge commonly held misconceptions about the Latino market that undermine the
importance of its size, uniqueness, and value. The topics that follow are fully addressed in the report and draw on compelling
evidence of market change and the perspective of marketers who have proven success i.
Migration And Population Imbalance In The Settlement Heirarchy Of Argentina
This document discusses migration and population changes in rural Argentina from the late 19th century to the 1970s. It finds that Argentina underwent rapid urbanization during this time period as the population shifted from dispersed rural areas to large metropolitan centers. By the 1970s, nearly half the population lived in the top five largest cities, with Buenos Aires approaching 10 million residents. This unbalanced urban growth left rural areas depopulated and intermediate cities underdeveloped. The document examines these population shifts at both a national level through census data on settlement patterns over time, and at a local level by studying migration from a village in Entre Ríos province.
Nielsen state of-the-hispanic-consumer 2012
The document discusses the growing importance of the Hispanic market to the US economy. Some key points:
1) Hispanics account for over half of US population growth and will be vital to future economic growth.
2) The Hispanic population's buying power was $1 trillion in 2010 and is projected to reach $1.5 trillion by 2015, making it a significant economic force.
3) Hispanic household income and consumption of consumer products is growing, and Hispanics will be the primary driver of domestic sales growth in many industries.
2010 census marketing by rgomezjr
The document discusses how the upcoming 2010 US Census data will reveal significant growth of the Hispanic population in the US. It notes that Hispanics contributed 52% of overall US population growth between 2000-2010. The census will show that marketing to Hispanics can no longer be considered a separate strategy and must now be integrated into all marketing plans. It provides some key facts about the Hispanic population size, growth rates in major markets, and purchasing power. The document emphasizes that the census data will have major implications for business and require companies to reconsider how they approach the Hispanic consumer segment.

Global Perspectives August 2011
The 2010 US Census data shows that the US population is becoming more diverse as the Hispanic and Asian populations experience rapid growth. Hispanics and Asians now make up over 30% of the US population, with their numbers increasing 43% since 2000 - four times faster than the overall population growth rate. This demographic shift is largely driven by immigration from Latin America and Asia, as nearly three-quarters of new US residents between 2000-2010 were Hispanic or Asian. The changing face of America means real estate agents must prepare to serve a multicultural client base to position themselves for long-term success.
