Abstract
This paper discusses Indonesia's economic development over the past ten years. It also describes the devastating effects of the Asian financial crisis, krismon, which halted attempts to develop the nation's economy and raise standards of living. The paper then looks at the factors that are needed for the future stability and development of the Indonesian economy to be maintained.
From the Paper
"Despite years of contraction and then stagnation, the Indonesian economy is now running smoothly, and is experiencing solid growth. Economic development is progressing and will continue as the government invests more in education and health care, and as ingenious schemes such as community-driven development come into fruition. International optimism is growing after strong signs of growth: In November 2006 the Jakarta stock exchange was up 45% on the previous year, and the Jakarta skyline dominated by new apartment complexes and building developments. Whether such gains will reach the poorest Indonesians remains up to the government, which still has many challenges to come."

"Economic Development and Democratization
Introduction
Early development theory held certain tenets to be truths about how development was to proceed in countries that were not yet industrialized. The assumption was, for example, that the first priority was to create infrastructure, such as roads, dams, and airports, to support an industrial economy. Development theory has been refined, and in some instances changed, as the development process has proceeded in a number of different types of countries around the world. There are still some principles that are basic tenets of traditional development theory. One of these is the idea that population growth tends to fall as development increases and per capita income rises. Another is the belief that economic development promotes democratization. The focus in this paper is ..."

"INDONESIA: THE PARADOX OF GROWTH AND CONTINUING ECONOMIC MISERY
Introduction
Forbes magazine, the American-based cheerleader for unregulated and unrepentant capitalism, enthused in the summer of 1995 over the ?world?s best kept secret??the Indonesian economy which has produced steady growth and, most endearing to Forbes, ?six new billionaires? (Tanzer & Mao, 1995, p. 112). Forbes managed to remain oblivious to a life expectancy (at birth) rate of 58 years, a literacy rate of 77 percent, and one of the lower levels of socioeconomic well-being for the average person in Asia (Hunter, 1995, pp. 763-769; World Bank, 1995, pp. 256-274). Forbes, however, unwittingly identified one of the causes of these anomalies?corrupt interconnections between government and .."

Abstract
This paper attempts to estimate what the real total economic cost of the Vietnam War was to the United States. The paper concludes that a reasonable estimate of the economic impact of the Vietnam War on the American economy is that an entire year's worth of productive activity was used to fight the war.
From the Paper
"The Vietnam War was the defining experience for a generation of Americans. Indeed, it is arguably one of the defining experiences of America as a whole in the Twentieth Century. Its impact on the men who fought there, the men (and women) who did not, the American military in general, American society and popular culture during and following the war has been well documented. However, it was not just a life changing experience for soldiers and protestors, or a force for social change, or even an inspiration for thousands of books and dozens of movies. War is not least an economic event. In addition to being a military defeat, a political blunder and a human tragedy, the Vietnam War was also an economic disaster."

" Thailand's Economic Crisis and the
"Triangle of Impossibility" Economic Model
Introduction
The "Triangle of Impossibility" economic model theorizes that it is dangerous, if not impossible for a small economy to maintain three desirable (politically) yet contradictory national goals. When it does, the end result is a macroeconomic crisis like the one currently going on in Thailand today (Na Thalang, 1997, 14). The three paths that Thailand is pursuing, suggests Na Thalang, are a fixed foreign exchange regime, free capital movement, and an independent monetary policy. After a brief economic snapshot of Thailand, these three divergent paths will be explored to determine if: A) the theory is valid, and B) if it.."

From the Paper
"Economic growth is the increase in value of goods and services produced by an economy. It can be measured as a percent change in the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Growth is essential for the development of any country. Ensuring that the benefits of high economic growth are more widely distributed is vital for making such growth sustainable (Anonymous, 2007)."
"One of the most noticeable features of the Nigerian economy is that the majority of the Nigerian population is poor and stricken with widespread poverty and disease. This reflects in the low GDP per capita of the country."

Abstract
The Civil Rights movement of the 1960s was not a movement for equality in the social or political sense; rather, it was a movement to bring an end to economic inequality and exploitation by the elites. Common perception holds that the Civil Rights movement sought to gain certain political and social rights and equalities. Measures such as the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act reinforced such flawed perceptions. However, when the works of the leaders of the Civil Rights movement are consulted, it is discovered that they were seeking economic equality. They believed that the fundamental cause of racism was a flawed economic system. It is important to note that they did not believe that poverty in the traditional sense caused racism and inequality. They believed, especially King and Carmichael, that the entire economic system of the United States and of the world was inherently flawed. This essay explore? their arguments why racism was based on economics, why the system was flawed, and how they hoped to change the system.

Abstract
In this paper the author looks at how the currency of South Korea, the won, de-valuated greatly against the American dollar. The author looks at how this devaluation affected South Korea's economy in that several of its businesses are on the verge of bankruptcy, unable to repay their massive foreign and domestic debts. The author looks at the request by South Korea for help from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the proposed plan by the IMF. In conclusion, the author states that there are clearly two parties of thought, some who believe the IMF plan will work and South Korea's economy will blossom and others who believe it will continue to deteriorate.

From the Paper
"The economic strategy emphasizing exports had produced a shortage of domestic consumer goods that was exacerbated by the increasing demands brought about by rising wages and the advance in living standards. Price controls imposed on producers of consumer goods discouraged the manufacture of these goods, and the rapid inflow of dollars expanded the money supply and inflation became a serious problem.
President Park addressed these problems by replacing the economic team in December 1978 and adopting stabilization measures. However, these methods caused a recession, produced a series of bankruptcies among small and medium loan-dependent enterprises, and increased unemployment. This situation was similar to Korea's current economic problems. However, foreign aid continued to flow into the country and the government and large companies were able to continue servicing their debts."

Abstract
This comprehensive study is aimed at the major economic, political, cultural and social changes and crises that have taken place within India during the period in question and it will attempt to assess the extent to which these factors have shaped the country's economic performance. Included in this analysis will be an assessment of economic development and social change, the economic and political aspects of agricultural change, as well as political change, political structure and the functioning of government. Attention will also be directed towards the caste conflict and language differences as well as the extent to which they have had an impact on the level of economic development that India has been able to achieve and the nature of this development. The main hypothesis that will be tested in this study will be the following: while India has achieved relatively significant economic advances during recent years, especially in light of the country's status as a Third World nation, these advances have been limited.
