Loss of national identity, negative external aligned eg: environmental impacts, people being employed may not last long because of technology basically might get structural unemployment, balance of payments changes may not be as positive as you think, domestic firms may struggle due to increase in competition.

It will because the depletion of natural resources means that future generations will suffer (productive capacity, etc... All that jazz you can find in the textbook)

kind of yeah but thats more to do with consequences of rapid economic growth.....economics is just repetition everywhere though lol. You dont actually need to know that much to get an A just understand it :smile:

theres actually a summary of all the main concepts that you should learn in the tutor2u guide, it uses the case study, the APT its pretty good aswell,
the monetary union seems to be a big topic in there though

Have to agree, lack of past papers is killing me in the revision section- you can learn so much from them it's ridiculous.

Hey guys.

Just a quick question. Are we all set on agreeing that the most likely 20 marker is going to be about FDI and their impact on developing countries? If not, which other ones are possibilities. I'm getting told by my teacher that extract 5's ending shows that FDI is a home-banker.

Also, which 10-marker do you think is most likely to come up.

Thanks.

What's home-banker? lol. Yeah I think its FDI promoting economic development. Unsure about the two 10 markers hmm maybe Comment about Greece leaving EU most likley
What do you think?
