A Concise Economic Geography of the World (e-Book)

The population of the globe now exceeds 3.000 million. According to U.N. estimates, there were 3,120 million people in the world in 1962.
Today the annual increment is about 60 million, which is equivalent to approximately one-quarter of the population of Africa. In the world today social and political systems, economic patterns and levels of economic development, and natural resources all differ very considerably. Economic development is exceedingly important for all countries no matter what their political systems but it is tackled differently by socialist and capitalist countries. Countries that have taken the road of liberation from colonial dependence also have specific economic features. The principal
goal of the second stage of the national liberation movement is to achieve economic independence.
