International trade thrives and depends on the free movement of goods and services to meet the existing demand. Globally, there is a common interest among all the nations to facilitate the free flow of products and fair competition. The aim is to liberalize trade in goods and services across national frontiers. Member states believe that if the free flow of goods is achieved, their respective citizens will have access to the best quality of goods, the most affordable, and healthy products.  Additionally, if states can specialize in producing the goods that are most favorable to their geographical positioning and climate, such items can be delivered at the least cost and thus reduce the price while not compromising the quality. States adopted the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) as a framework that regulates international…

Declining soil fertility and climate variability Declining soil fertility and climate variability are the major constraints to food security. It has led to the implementation of assorted soil fertility management practices to increase agricultural productivity to meet the growing population demands. However, there is limited knowledge on both the economic and environmental sustainability of these practices. Therefore, the study seeks to assess the economic and environmental sustainability of soil fertility management practices. The study will be carried out at Kangutu primary school in the central highlands of Kenya. It will be superimposed on an on-going long term field experiment arranged in split-plot and laid out in a randomized complete block design. The treatments are a combination of two tillage methods and six soil fertility inputs and control. The tillage methods are minimum and conventional tillage. The inputs are: sole mineral fertilizer, crop residues + mineral fertilizer, crop residues + mineral fertilizer + animal manure, crop residues +Tithonia diversifolia+ Phosphate rock, crop residues+ animal manure+ legume intercrop, crop residues+ Tithonia diversifolia+ animal manure the. The test crop will be maize (Zea…

Social Change and Policy Change             Neo-liberalism supports free markets where resources are allocated in relation to supply and demand and encourages individualism, where citizens are expected to rely on themselves and the market for provision. Therefore, in the world of conservatism, the government rarely passes policy changes advocated by social problems as the government’s focus is on reducing its social responsibilities. Neo-liberal policies, such as those in the Chilean constitution, especially make it difficult to address social problems. In some cases, when the government passes policies, the actual reason behind the support is not the social change, but the reduction in responsibility that it offers or if it of political interest. Despite its economic success story, Chile is experiencing many social problems. Years of suffering pushed people to demand a constitutional change. A change that would address social issues, such as inequality, by safeguard the rights of the people and allowing citizen participation in the formation of policies and other political decisions. The problems faced by Chileans include social rights such as the right to education and healthcare and…

Labor Union Formation and Activity             In the past, mainly blue-collar workers and white-collar workers whose pay were low formed unions to deal with issues such as poor working conditions, long hours, and low pay. Nowadays, employees in tech companies such as Google, with the best salaries and working environments, are beginning to push towards the formation of unions. There is an evident need for more union activities, and this is the case, globally. Employers are trying to relieve themselves from responsibilities such as pension coverage and health insurance. They are also making jobs less secure. Thus, workers need the bargaining power and collective voice that unions provide, now as much as ever. Although most unions behave ethically, others do not, engaging in the monopolization of the human resource supply to force employers to pay higher wages. In 2019, there was an intense debate in Kickstarter between the management and workers on whether images of people punching Nazis in a comic book should be allowed to raise funds on their platform. This was the tipping point for the workers, as…

 Discuss and explain the characteristics of a perfectly competitive market A perfect market is a market where there are many buyers and sellers (Chang, 2015). The products sold in that market are usually identical, and one can enter ii and out of that market very quickly since there are no barriers. Characteristics In a perfectly competitive market, you will find so many firms that are selling identical products. All businesspeople in that market have knowledge accessibility (Chang, 2015). Even to those new potential businesses who want to enter the market, all information is usually perfect. Firms can enter the market and exit freely; there are no barriers put into restricting entry and exit. No firm can control the market or its conditions or influence the market. Therefore, the perceived price is usually as a result of the whole industry. In a perfectly competitive market, the contribution of all producers to the market is insignificant. Hence, an increase in the production of one producer cannot change the supply curve. What is the demand schedule, curve? What is a supply schedule and…

The association that exists between the growth of population and the related economic development has been a subject of analysis for quite some period. Several economists have shared their sentiments concerning descriptions of the development of the economy, the growth of population, and how they affect the economy in the lowly developed economy, transition economy and developing economies. The Malthus theory stresses that the population expands in a mode which is geometric and the supply related with food is incremental depending on the arithmetic mode. The supply of food is used as a measure of arithmetic mode which is affected by produce from land which has chance cost for infrastructural expansion. Economic development refers to the procedure that a citizen’s quality of living is expanded. The increment of population standards of life through the rate of food consumption, healthcare provision, and education is dependent on economic factors and population theories. The political institution, social rules and…
