This document discusses allocation and provisioning in economics. It begins by introducing the concepts of scarcity and wants, and how economics deals with allocating scarce resources to satisfy unlimited wants. It then discusses several questions around provisioning, including the nature of wants, social institutions, technology, and their role in the economic system. The document outlines three approaches to addressing the allocation problem: increasing output, altering the mix of goods produced, and altering wants/preferences. It introduces concepts like ceteris paribus, opportunity cost, and property rights and their role in allocation mechanisms.

The document discusses the key factors that influence the demand for a product:
1) Price - as price increases, demand decreases, with more price-sensitive goods seeing larger changes in demand from price changes.
2) Consumer income and wealth - demand for normal goods increases as income rises, while inferior goods see demand fall.
3) Prices of other goods - if substitute goods become more expensive, demand may rise for alternatives, while complementary goods see correlated demand changes.
4) Tastes and preferences - shifting social and environmental conditions can impact consumer preferences over time.
5) Expectations - anticipated future price or income changes can impact current purchasing decisions.
The document discusses the law of supply and demand. It explains that the equilibrium price and quantity of a good is determined by the intersection of the demand and supply curves. The demand for a good is influenced by factors like price, income, tastes, and prices of substitutes and complements. The supply is influenced by factors like production costs, input prices, and technology. Changes in demand or supply can shift the curves and result in a new equilibrium price and quantity. Price floors and ceilings are ineffective in the long run as they create surpluses or shortages.
This document discusses elasticity and its applications. It defines price elasticity of demand and supply as the percentage change in quantity demanded or supplied given a percentage change in price. Demand can be elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic depending on how much quantity changes with price. The document also discusses factors that determine elasticity, how to compute elasticity, and how shifts in supply or demand impact equilibrium price and quantity in a market.

The document discusses how information and communication technologies (ICTs) like social media can empower citizens and enable social change in developing nations. It provides examples of how platforms like Facebook and online petitions were used to disseminate information and garner support during important events in Philippine history like the EDSA Revolution and in the aftermath of disasters like Typhoon Yolanda. The document also outlines the concepts of digital citizenship, digital access, and online safety and ethics that are important for citizens to practice when using digital tools and platforms.
Demand, supply, and market equilibrium are analyzed. Demand is defined as the relationship between price and quantity demanded while supply is defined as the relationship between price and quantity supplied. The law of demand and law of supply state that quantity demanded increases with lower prices and quantity supplied increases with higher prices, respectively. Market equilibrium occurs when quantity demanded equals quantity supplied at the equilibrium price. Changes in demand or supply curves result in new equilibrium prices and quantities.
The document discusses the key aspects of entrepreneurship including the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs, the entrepreneurial process, and requirements for starting a business. It describes the five steps of the entrepreneurial process as discovery, concept development, resourcing, actualization, and harvesting. It also outlines the components of an effective business plan and legal requirements for acquiring finances and meeting permits, licenses, contracts, and taxes needed to start a business.
The document summarizes a study examining consumer preferences for green recyclable products. It identifies 12 variables that may affect consumer purchasing behavior. A questionnaire using a Likert scale was designed to measure attitudes on 9 of the variables. Discriminant analysis was used to analyze the data and differentiate consumers into two groups: buyers or non-buyers of green products based on the factors. The analysis identified key variables that influence whether a consumer purchases green recyclable products.

This document outlines lessons on intersubjectivity and accepting differences in others. It discusses several objectives, including realizing that accepting differences is important in human relationships. It also explains that authentic dialogue means accepting others even if they differ. Two key aspects discussed are:
1) One must accept others and their differences, which is a critical part of intersubjectivity.
2) Not imposing one's own thoughts or ideas on others is another way of accepting differences.
It also references concepts like paternalism, legal moralism, and Fromm's elements of love as being care, responsibility, respect and knowledge. The overall goal is helping students understand the importance of accepting others as they are.

It then lists the names and one fact about each of the major planets: Jupiter is the largest planet, Venus is the second planet from the sun, and Saturn is a gas giant with rings. The document provides some additional details about each planet and includes images and diagrams to illustrate key characteristics. It concludes by restating that Earth is the third planet from the sun and the only one known to harbor life in the solar system. The overall purpose is to present important facts about the planets in a clear and concise manner through both text and visuals.
Media and Information Languages - Media and Information Literacy (MIL)Mark Jhon Oxillo
The document discusses media languages and information codes. It explains that media languages use codes, conventions, formats and narrative structures to convey meaning to audiences. There are three main types of codes: symbolic codes which use symbols, written codes which employ language and text layout, and technical codes involving production elements like camera shots, angles, and movements. The document provides examples and definitions of various symbolic, written, and technical codes used in media to effectively communicate messages and stories.
The document discusses supply and demand analysis and its key assumptions:
- It applies when competition exists among buyers and sellers.
- It analyzes the interaction of buyers and sellers across all prices and goods with markets.
- The interaction of supply and demand determines both the quantity sold and the price.
It then provides examples of how supply and demand shifts in specific contexts like typhoons, and discusses related concepts like price stabilization, labor supply and wages, population growth, output growth, and taxation.
Finally, it covers international exchange rates, defining terms like appreciation, depreciation, and devaluation, and how the supply of and demand for foreign currency interact in markets.
The document discusses the laws of supply and demand. It defines demand as how much of a product people are willing to buy at a given price, and supply as how much of a product producers are willing to provide at a given price. The key points are:
1) According to the law of demand, the higher the price of a good, the lower the quantity demanded. The law of supply states the opposite - that the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied.
2) Equilibrium occurs when supply and demand are equal, meaning the quantity supplied meets the quantity demanded at the current price. Disequilibrium results in either excess supply or excess demand.
3) The interaction between supply and
This document discusses the four main types of industries: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. Primary industries involve activities like farming, fishing, forestry and mining that directly use natural resources. Secondary industries process and transform raw materials from primary industries into manufactured goods. Tertiary industries provide services like transportation, banking, tourism and retail. Quaternary industries handle information and knowledge through activities such as research and development. The document provides examples for each type and discusses how industries are classified based on factors like labor intensity.
This document discusses different family structures such as nuclear, single-parent, extended, and childless families. It also covers parental authority styles like authoritative parenting and theories of social learning. Students are asked to create a genogram tracing physical, personality, or behavioral attributes through generations and reflect on the characteristics passed down from their own family. The learning objectives are to appraise one's family structure and care received, identify firm and gentle sides of family influence, and make a genogram.
This document provides an introduction to demand and supply, including key concepts such as:
- Markets connect buyers and sellers of goods and services. Common types of markets include goods, labor, and stock markets.
- Demand refers to how much of a good or service consumers are willing and able to purchase at different prices. The demand curve slopes downward, as consumers demand more of a good at lower prices. Changes in factors like income can shift the demand curve.
- Supply refers to how much of a good or service producers are willing to provide at different prices. The supply curve slopes upward, as producers supply more of a good at higher prices. Changes in costs and other factors can shift the supply curve
This document outlines the instructions for a collaborative business budgeting proposal performance task. Students will work in groups of up to three people to create a realistic business budget proposal. They must submit their groupings and will receive a sample template. The proposal must be for a currently existing business and will be assessed during a virtual budget defense scheduled for November 22, 2021. Students are advised to email their proposal to the teacher beforehand for feedback. A panel will evaluate the proposals based on criteria such as completeness of entries, correctness, creativity, coherence, and the group's oral defense presentation skills.
This document provides an overview of key concepts in economics. It defines economics as the study of how individuals, businesses, governments and societies cope with scarcity. It distinguishes between microeconomics, which examines choices of individuals and businesses, and macroeconomics, which examines effects on the overall economy. Two big questions of economics are how choices determine production and whether pursuit of self-interest also promotes social interest.
Economics is a social science that deals with how societies allocate their scarce resources to satisfy unlimited human wants and needs. It studies how individuals and groups make choices to fulfill their material desires. Understanding economics helps explain issues like how resources, taxes, and government spending are allocated in a society with limited means. Studying economics also provides insight into international trade, economic growth, and improving standards of living.

Economics studies how individuals, businesses, governments and societies make choices when faced with scarcity and limited resources. It examines what, how and for whom goods and services are produced. Microeconomics focuses on individual and business choices and interactions in markets, while macroeconomics looks at whole economies. Choices determine patterns of production and use of factors like land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship. Pursuing self-interest through choices can promote social interests if it leads to efficient use of resources and fair distribution of goods.

Humanitarian actions and development policy: What complementarities and inter...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: Poverty continues to overwhelm a large proportion of the population despite some
improvements in the standard of living in some parts of the world. In an extreme situation, the fight against
poverty begins with humanitarian actions to save lives and repair human damage. In another aspect,
development policies are adopted to trigger economic and social dynamism. These are supposed to provide
mechanisms that must be sustainable to support continuous development. It turns out that between humanitarian
actions in a context of extreme poverty and development policies in the strategic sense, there are encroachments
that create the risk of distortion up to the reciprocal neutralization of these two notions. . This paper will try to
make a comparative and reciprocal analysis of these two actions in order to detect their differences, their
complementarities and the interferences in order to draw lessons for a better effectiveness for the population
concerned. The approach combined a legal vision in the sense of human rights and an economic vision in the
sense of basic needs. And the economic approach with the use of the Keynesian-cross has clearly demonstrated
the stakes. These steps have revealed that humanitarian actions and development policies have their place in
specific contexts respectively, but best reciprocal combinations and rationalizations are necessary and
beneficial. for the population. It remains to be seen how to find the best contextual and temporal connections so
that humanitarian actions can serve as solid bases for human rights and trigger sustainable and sustainable
development
Time To Care, Time To Play: Wellbeing, Social Work and the Shorter Working Weekwww.patkane.global
The document discusses the importance of human relationships in social reform and well-being. It argues that social workers should advocate for social and economic conditions that maximize human relationships and flourishing. This includes promoting a shorter working week to allow more time for caring, community involvement, and developing relationships. Reducing working hours could help address social problems and lower environmental impact by reducing consumption and increasing prosperity defined by relationships rather than wealth.
This document provides an introduction to economics concepts and values. It discusses key ideas like scarcity, choice, and the fundamental problems faced by economies in allocating limited resources. The nature and scope of economics is explained as the study of how societies deal with scarcity by determining what and how much to produce, and how to distribute goods and services. Microeconomics and macroeconomics are introduced as tools for economic analysis at different levels. Finally, managerial economics is presented as applying economic theory to business decision making.
This document provides an overview of economics. It defines economics as the study of how individuals, businesses, governments, and societies make choices with scarce resources. It distinguishes between microeconomics, which studies individual and business decision-making, and macroeconomics, which studies overall economic activity and performance. Two key economic questions are examined: what goods and services are produced, how they are produced, and who receives them. The concept of incentives, tradeoffs, and opportunity costs are introduced as part of the "economic way of thinking."
1A society, according to Utilitarianism, is just to the extent tha.pdfanyacarpets
1>>A society, according to Utilitarianism, is just to the extent that its laws and institutions are
such as to promote the greatest overall or average happiness of its members.
How do we determine the aggregate, or overall, happiness of the members of a society? This
would seem to present a real problem. For happiness is not, like temperature or weight, directly
measurable by any means that we have available. So utilitarians must approach the matter
indirectly. They will have to rely on indirect measures, in other words. What would these be, and
how can they be identified?
The traditional idea at this point is to rely upon (a) a theory of the human good (i.e., of what is
good for human beings, of what is required for them to flourish) and (b) an account of the social
conditions and forms of organization essential to the realization of that good.
People, of course, do not agree on what kind of life would be the most desirable. Intellectuals,
artists, ministers, politicians, corporate bureaucrats, financiers, soldiers, athletes, salespersons,
workers: all these different types of people, and more besides, will certainly not agree completely
on what is a happy, satisfying, or desirable life. Very likely they will disagree on some quite
important points.
All is not lost, however. For there may yet be substantial agreement--enough, anyway, for the
purposes of a theory of justice --about the general conditions requisite to human flourishing in all
these otherwise disparate kinds of life. First of all there are at minimum certain basic needs that
must be satisfied in any desirable kind of life. Basic needs, says James Sterba, are those needs
\"that must be satisfied in order not to seriously endanger a person\'s mental or physical well-
being.\"
Basic needs, if not satisfied, lead to lacks and deficiencies with respect to a standard of mental
and physical well-being. A person\'s needs for food, shelter, medical care, protection,
companionship, and self-development are, at least in part, needs of this sort. [Sterba,
Contemporary Social and Political Philosophy (Belmont, CA: Wadsworth Publishing Co., 1995).
A basic-needs minimum, then, is the minimum wherewithal required for a person to meet his or
her basic needs. Such needs are universal. People will be alike in having such needs, however
much they diverge in regard to the other needs, desires, or ends that they may have.
We may develop this common ground further by resorting to some of Aristotle\'s ideas on this
question of the nature of a happy and satisfying life. Aristotle holds that humans are rational
beings and that a human life is essentially rational activity, by which he means that human
beings live their lives by making choices on the basis of reasons and then acting on those
choices. All reasoning about what to do proceeds from premises relating to the agent\'s beliefs
and desires. Desire is the motive for action and the practical syllogism (Aristotle\'s label for the
reasoning by which .
The document discusses the scope and method of economics. It defines economics as the science of administering scarce resources in human society. It explores the differences between theoretical, applied and welfare economics. It also discusses how economics aims to identify general patterns of uniformity in human behavior and use empirical testing to verify hypotheses and models. While there is significant agreement among economists, disagreements can arise from different social objectives, facts, or failures to follow logical rules. Ideologies are rationalizations of beliefs not based on scientific procedure and only convince those with similar motivations.

Linkages to Environmental Justice
Hillman (2006, 695) explains that “environment justice as a political movement and research programme originated amidst concerns over the unjust distribution of environmental hazards primarily in, or close to, disadvantaged or marginalised communities.”
Most scholars trace the origin of the environmental justice movement to a protest in 1982 against the dumping of PCB-laden dirt into a waste landfill in Warren County, North Carolina. The county was 65 percent Black.
This protest marked one of the first times when civil rights and environmental groups collaborated. Studies in the 1980s and early 1990s which demonstrated linkages between not only environmental risk, namely the location of toxic waste sites, waste dumps, and power plants, and poverty but also between environmental risk and race in the US further empowered these activists,
Also, only starting in the 1990s, has the environmental justice framework been applied outside of the United States.
It is still not widely used in Asia as a framework academically but there are increasing movements for environmental justice (e.g. in China, Vietnam, and Thailand)
Regardless, of the location, as Schroeder et al. (2008) assert, at the core of environmental justice struggles are universal and part of broader patterns of injustice of a global significance.
Schlosberg’s 3 types of injustices
What are they?
distributive (how environmental goods and harms are unevenly distributed)
procedural (whether different groups have equal access to decision-making)
lack of recognition (whether groups have been discriminated against due to their identity).
2 key questions
1) what patterns of social inequality exist in relation to the environmental good or bad?
This question is a distributional one in which a contextual process claim of injustice is being made.
Such a claim analyses a specific situation, such as the distribution of floodwater in Bangkok in 2011, and historically traces patterns of urban development and decision-making and how these patterns produced injustices.
Questions that also need to be asked are how inequalities are being produced, who is responsible for them, how decisions have been made have, and how are government policies and practices created and enacted
2) The second series of questions are procedural ones, examining how a society operates: how power is distributed, and how uneven environmental outcomes arise as a consequence?
A basic insight of the movement is that “distribution o ...
- Economics is the social science that studies how individuals and societies allocate scarce resources. It can be divided into microeconomics and macroeconomics.
- Microeconomics analyzes individual economic units like households and firms, and studies topics like supply and demand, costs of production and market structures. Macroeconomics analyzes the economy as a whole and focuses on unemployment, inflation, GDP and issues impacted by fiscal and monetary policy.
- Both microeconomics and macroeconomics aim to explain economic behavior using theories, models and empirical analysis, but microeconomics focuses on individual decision-making while macroeconomics analyzes economy-wide outcomes.
This document provides a critical analysis of two research articles that use different methodologies and paradigms. The first article uses quantitative methods and a post-positivistic paradigm, while the second uses qualitative methods and a constructivist paradigm. Each article is analyzed based on its methodology, research questions, theoretical frameworks, definitions, limitations, significance, methods and procedures, quality and rigor, and researcher positionality. The analysis finds that while the articles have different purposes, they both fit within the conceptual frameworks of their respective fields.
The document discusses the key social institutions that exist in societies, including families, economic institutions, religious institutions, political institutions, educational institutions, and play/recreational institutions. It provides details on the defining characteristics and functions of each institution. For example, it states that families provide love and support, economic institutions ensure production and distribution of goods, and religious institutions provide explanations for natural phenomena and control behavior. The functions of each institution are also outlined.
Describe how a social worker would conceptualize a presenting probLinaCovington707
Describe how a social worker would conceptualize a presenting problem related to structural issues or barriers that contribute to a client’s marginalization using the two theories you selected.
Upon reviewing the assigned readings related to theoretical approaches in regard to Psychological Theories of Poverty, I choose theories that demonstrate both the individual-related, and structural/cultural-related theories that address conceptualized representation of forseen structural issues and or barriers that further contribute to society’s experienced marginalization. The initial theory that represents individual related perspective, would be the ecological theory which in a sociological lens connects social entities with their environments. The two mentioned methods that are fundamental to the ecological theory are “adaptation and selection”. Adaptation can be referred as the process by which an entity modifies, in order to survive optimally within its given environment; selection is the process that highlights the less adapted to a set environments condition (Aldric, 1979). The ecological theory essentially can be known to emphasize one’s attention to the behavior of the social environment, and the nature of resiliency observed by behavior demonstrated (Turner & Lehning, 2007). The second theory, I elected to reference that I believe further referenced the marginalization contributed to issues and barriers is the naturalizing perspective theory in conjunction with the cultural-relativistic perspective, which validates that intrinsic biological factors that may lead to poverty in addition to suggesting that poorer communities experience different culture exposures from the rest of society. The culture of poverty theory focuses on the role social environments create in a culture of poverty, individuals classified in this category are more likely to experience family tensions, lack of refined emotions, along additional persistent familial, economical, and medical concerns (Turner & Lehning, 2007). This theory further explores the lack or poor political, economical, and social freedom that individuals are deprived of. Moreover, both theories allow social workers to further expand on issues that further debilitate communities that are more necessitated than others, among identifying the lack of resources, and or neglect of the targeted population. In which case, Social Workers can take it upon themselves to further facilitate further insight on resources the respected communities and or clients would benefit from yet utilizing cultural humility and competency.
Explain how this conceptualization differs from an individual-related versus a structural/cultural-related theoretical lens.
The conceptualized differences related to individual related, and cultural/structural related theories can be the complexities associated to the related theories. Social dysfunctionality specifically between the discomfort associated with culture and race is an eviden ...

This document provides an overview and analysis of monetary economics from the perspective of The Zeitgeist Movement. It defines key terms like economics, monetary systems, and capitalism. It then examines some of the core mechanisms and consequences of monetary economics, focusing on five attributes that are necessary to maintain the current economic system: 1) the need for perpetual cyclical consumption, 2) the abundance of scarcity, 3) the priority of profit, 4) the distortion of values, and 5) fiscal manipulation. It argues that these attributes inherently promote planned obsolescence, constant waste, and environmental destruction in the pursuit of economic growth. The document aims to provide an alternative view of economics that is more sustainable.
11.capability approach and multidimensional poverty analysisAlexander Decker
This document discusses the capability approach and its use in multidimensional poverty analysis. It begins with an abstract that introduces the capability approach and how it can be used to evaluate well-being, inequality, and poverty. The next sections provide more detail on key aspects of the capability approach, including its focus on what people are effectively able to do and be, the distinction between means and ends, and how capabilities and functionings relate to achieved outcomes. It then discusses how the capability approach provides a framework for measuring poverty in a multidimensional way by looking at multiple dimensions of well-being beyond just income.
