- Exogenous development vs. endogenous development in Haiti.
- Creator
- Ewen, Stephen., Harriet L. Wilkes Honors College
- Abstract/Description
-
From before its independence to the present day, Haiti has had exogenous development schemes imposed upon it. These schemes stem from the development theories of Western political-economic thinkers that Western powers and Haitian elites have implemented. Yet Haiti is today the most impoverished nation of the Western hemisphere. What has gone wrong? In reply, I examine a key power-based explanation for the failure. I then examine the culturally-based practices, identity formations, and...
Show moreFrom before its independence to the present day, Haiti has had exogenous development schemes imposed upon it. These schemes stem from the development theories of Western political-economic thinkers that Western powers and Haitian elites have implemented. Yet Haiti is today the most impoverished nation of the Western hemisphere. What has gone wrong? In reply, I examine a key power-based explanation for the failure. I then examine the culturally-based practices, identity formations, and development aspirations of Haiti's popular class, and contrast these with exogenous development theory, praxis and outcomes. I show the profound "misfit" between the two and highlight conflicts that have arisen because of them. In Haiti, exogenous development forms will inevitably go awry because their starting points are and remain fundamentally flawed. An endogenous development form based upon the Haitian majority's culturally-based preferences and identities stands the best chance of bringing social justice and long-term stability to the nation.

By now, a vast literature has attempted to answer the question of whether democracy is conducive to economic growth. The empirical side of the literature has not come to any consensus on this issue. My thesis examines Argentina's economic and political history from 1960 to the present, including particularly volatile episodes with many military regimes.

Show moreBy now, a vast literature has attempted to answer the question of whether democracy is conducive to economic growth. The empirical side of the literature has not come to any consensus on this issue. My thesis examines Argentina's economic and political history from 1960 to the present, including particularly volatile episodes with many military regimes. Specifically, I attempt to contribute to the democracy-growth literature by examining whether Argentina's level of democracy affected its economic growth. Controlling for a number of factors, I construct an econometric model that focuses on GDP as the dependent variable and democracy as the independent variable of interest. I claim that there is no correlation between Argentina's economic growth and its level of democracy.

Show moreCulture Jammers, an activist guerilla-like movement, entered the global scene in the 1990s and, through public performances, attempt to draw attention to their claim that the US economic structure is facing a fundamental need to shift away from a consumer-oriented capitalist economy. As an alternative, the activists propose--True Cost economics, a model that would include the costs of negative production and consumption externalities in the pricing of commodities. In this paper, I focus on culture jammers' critique of neoclassical economics, more specifically, the clash of the--new paradigm (True Cost economics) and the old paradigm (neoclassical economics). In evaluating whether True Cost economics is a feasible alternative, I graphically examine how the True Cost solution and the neoclassical market model correct for negative externalities to reveal similarities in the two models.

Show moreThe intention of this exhibition is to educate the viewer about the hidden impacts that result from simple choices of consumption. This is a critique of the materials economy and the responsibilities of the designers, consumers and industries that contributed to its success. The critique is expressed through four dominant and unsustainable consumer products: water bottles, plastic shopping bags, cigarette filters and farm chemicals, as each has its own specific story of consumption. The form is derived from manufacturing history, statistical data, and profiles of consumer behaviors. Graphic design is utilized in both formal and non-formal methods with the goal of communicating specific messages to the viewer as they progress through the exhibition space.

As economic changes occurred, geographers regionalized Estonia in different ways. During Estonia's independent period (1918-1939), the nation fit into a West European economic region as a peripheral agricultural country. Soviet annexation, 1940-1991, reversed Estonia's economic participation to an Eastern focused and industrialized republic. Today, Estonia has resurfaced as an independent nation that has begun to realign its economy toward Western European countries, while promoting itself as a geographic window between East and West.

Show moreThis study empirically investigates direct foreign investments, acquisitions and partial acquisitions with a U.S. firm, from 1980 through 1989. The primary purpose of this study is two-fold: (1) establish the overall effect of direct foreign investments on shareholder wealth surrounding the announcement (the short-term share price reaction) and over a three-year period after the announcement (the long-term share price reaction) and (2) form a greater understanding of the variables influencing the shareholder wealth effect of direct foreign investments. The overall short-term share price reaction is negative but insignificant for U.S firms acquiring foreign firms, positive and significant for U.S. firms partially acquiring foreign firms, and positive and significant for U.S. targets partially acquired by foreign firms. The overall long-term share price reaction is negative and significant for each of the previous three group of U.S. firms, yet positive and significant for foreign targets partially acquired by U.S. firms and negative but insignificant for foreign firms partially acquiring U.S. firms. The variables influencing each group of U.S. firms are a firm's name recognition, the exchange rate, investment in a related industry, investment in a developed country, and the presence of a previous international expansion.

Show moreIn 1976 the Colombian government signed an association contract with INTERCOR, a subsidiary of The Exxon Corporation, to explore and later exploit the coal mines of El Cerrejon. This contract, its history and the controversial debates it generated, exemplifies the historical dependency upon Western superpowers in which Colombia has found itself since the Spanish Conquest. It is a model for the study of neo-colonialist imperialism, since it can be analyzed both, in terms of how Colombia, under its current economic order, is dependent upon u.s. business interests, and also in terms of how the political system of Colombia is structured around the maintenance of imperialism, especially because this state of affairs is vital in maintaining the ruling class in power. Analyzing the Cerrejon contract from this perspective leaves little doubt that Colombia must employ radical measures to shake off its dependency upon the United States.

Show moreThe Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIW) and its associated ports are both the entranceways of international commerce to the U.S. and arteries of domestic commercial transportation. Each year the federal government invests thousands of dollars into the waterways and ports of the United States. The goals of this thesis are (1) to provide an historical background of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and the selected ports and (2) to determine if federal expenditures are yielding results at the AIW and the ports. Several modest statistical analyses are used to determine if Federal investment influences passenger and cargo volume at the selected ports. Findings indicate that federal investment does influence cargo volume, however, there are many additional factors to be considered which may play a greater role in passenger and cargo volume at these ports.

Show moreThe theory of the commodity is used by critical theorists to explain the general organization and development of capitalist society. It was originally proposed by Marx, and subsequently developed by Lukacs and later Adorno and the Frankfurt School. Media scholars such as Dallas Smythe, Judith Williamson, Robert Goldman and Eileen Meehan have identified the commodity structure in several forms throughout the process of mass communication. Although commodity theory is not always articulated as a part of critical studies, it is useful for understanding the process of mass communication under capitalism. By investigating the dynamics of market processes and cultural innovation, this paper shows where the theory of the commodity fits into Critical Media Studies and suggests where some productive applications may be found.

Descriptive and analytical statistical techniques are used to examine the economy. Chapter I uses verbal and simple graph descriptions of changes in key variables that have occurred since 1947. Chapter II presents an Econometric model of the economy and interprets the results of two estimations of the model. Because structural change is suggested by the analysis in Chapter II, Chapter III examines the nature and significance of structural shifts using the ChovJ Test, Dummy Variable Test, and Switching Regression. General Impact Multiplier analysis is used in Chapter IV to elicit results from the model when it is treated holistically and dynamically. The final chapter analyzes the economic changes that were indicated in previous chapters. The importance of these changes for Puerto Rico's further economic advance and the lessons that other developing nations can learn from Puerto Rico's experience conclude the thesis.

Show moreThe informal, underground or shadow economy is a significant, growing force throughout Latin America and the Caribbean, contributing to overall output, yet diminishing productivity, congesting public services, and depriving developing nations of potential fiscal revenues. This paper discusses the various definitions and methods of measurement of the informal sector, with the aim of showing the importance of collecting taxes in informal economies. Informal economy participants engage in tax evasion and avoidance of governmental regulations, therefore the implications of excessive tax burdens and onerous bureaucracy are studied, with a focus on their impact on GDP growth. Informal sector enterprises can greatly contribute to the official, recorded GDP measures if they have significant incentives to joining the formal sector. These incentives are presented and must be considered seriously by policymakers concerned with capturing additional tax revenues and improving economic growth in their nations.

- Abstract/Description
-
The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate the intensive rivalry of Germany and the United States prior to 1914 and to show how this rivalry was a contributing factor to the United States' decision to enter World War One on the side of the Allies. To show how these two countries became intense rivals, the first chapters discuss the economic development of each country. The later chapters show the rivalry in action in Latin America, the Far East and in Europe.

It is with such a context in mind that the animosity of consumers in the Middle East is examined and whether that animosity affects the willingness to buy. In this study, the intention is to understand consumers' internal motivations behind their refusal to buy American products. Is it just to express anger, to punish the United States, or just to enhance their images, that consumers in the Middle East refuse to buy American products? In addition, the goal is to go a step further and to investigate whether animosity is expressed across different religious groups.

Show moreThe International Monetary Fund/World Bank's campaign to restructure and revitalize Third World economies has been underway since 1977 but with little positive reviews. In the meantime, the living standards of the poor in these countries continue to deteriorate as more adjustment measures are employed. The purpose of this study is to challenge the "long-term benefits" argument by demonstrating that implementation of adjustment policies correlates with social decline. The study takes the form of a case study of Jamaica and traces the historical developments to explain the current debt crisis. A number of social indicators which include cost of living, health, education, housing and crime are used to assess and determine the relationship between structural adjustment and living standards. The study concludes that because the aim of these financial institutions is debt recovery, there is little regard for human resource development, an area that is key to breaking the current cycle of dependency. The result is an inverse relationship between structural adjustment and social well-being.
