Economies of India and China
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper. The world's two most populous countries have been undergoing immense change over the past two decades. Each has become the focus of many of the world's multinational organizations, and each has come to play important roles in the shift of labor in developed nations. India and China economically were fairly equal in years past, but such is no longer the case. China's growth resulting from international involvement began earlier and has grown faster than India's, but that is not the only source of the economic divergence between the two countries. China has pulled in front of India, and it appears that the gulf between them will only widen in the near future. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

European Union: Relative Positions of Ireland and Great Britain
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the EU; historical economic differences between
Ireland and Britain; and how those differences have influenced current positions. The
single market still is a long way from reality in Europe, but the very promise of it
becoming reality affects both member and non-member nations. The promise of the single
market and EU membership forced nations to become fiscally responsible and
business-oriented. Ireland had not been; Britain's entire economy already was based on
such an approach. These historical concepts can explain each nation's success despite
their divergent views on EU membership. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
