  1. Global Industrial Shifts Have a paper and pencil ready. When you see a question on the slide, take a minute to try to answer it. I may collect your answers at the end of the period.

  2. Global= Whole World • Industrial= Manufacturing + Production • Shift= Change

  3. What can we guess about the changes that are happening?

  4. What trends can we see from the next slide? What do we mean by Industrial Sector here?

  5. That’s right. Industries in this case means factories

  6. What about this next slide? Look at the different sectors

  7. Describe the trend(s) in the UK for :Primary industriesSecondary industriesTertiary industries

  8. Even though the dates are different for the 2 charts, does any trend seem to become apparent? How would you describe this trend based on the types of industries and the countries we just saw?

  9. What is the Trend of Transference?

  10. A global shift (change) in location of large scale (very big) manufacturing plants. Also a change in types of industries located in different countries

  11. The shift started with large manufacturing plants moving from: DC LDC

  12. MDC (DC) More developed country Developed country

  13. LDC Less Developed Country (developing)

  14. What are some factors that tell us if a country is ‘developed’ or not?

  15. GDP MDC countries often have high GDP as well as high GDP per capita (per person)

  16. Name 2 countries that you consider to be MDC and 2 countries that you consider LDC. Find them on the next map

  17. It also has to do with which kinds of industries their income, or GDP is coming from What types of industries: Pri, Sec, etc. Do you guess MDC’s tend to have more of?

  18. What industries (prim, sec, tert.) do the following sectors belong to? Agriculture Industry Services

  19. Look on the next map.Remember which countries had high GDP? See if you can use the map to tell which industries they use most

  20. What kinds of industries do the MDC countries tend to have more of? What kind of industries do the LDC tend to have more of?

  21. To determine if a country is MDC or LDC, we can also look at the HDI (Human Development Index)

  22. The HDI measures things such as: Health care Access to clean water Education Standard of living

  23. MDC’s also score high on the HDI (Human Development Index)

  24. So, what do we see about GDP and HDI so far…. What can we say in general about a country that has a strong GDP or strong economy. What often (but not always) seems to happen to their HDI? When GDP goes up over time, HDI tends to go ________?

  25. Ok, got it?

  26. So we know that: • MDC tend to have strong tertiary based economy • MDC tend to have high GDP • MDC tend to have high HDI scores

  27. We also know that: • LDC tend to have prim/sec industry based economy • LDC tend to have lower GDP • LDC tend to have low scores on the HDI

  28. So how did all this happen, and what is with the trend of transference?

  29. We know that • Some countries experienced the industrial revolution before others • The countries who ‘missed out’ on industrialization are often the LDC of today

  30. By the 20th century, because of industrialization, many nations (which ones?) experienced higher outputs (production) and a higher GDP. What tends to happen when GDP goes up over a long period? A country may become more ____________.

  31. Tertiary and quaternary industries begin to rise Also in the 20th century, in the industrialize countries Also another indicator to ‘development’

  32. What do you think starts to happen to countries when they ‘develop’. What happens to prices, to cost of labor, to working condition etc? • People started demanding better pay, more benefits, and shorter working days

  33. So, if you are a factory owner in a develop country, and your costs of production start to go up because your labor costs are rising, what do you do?

  34. Well, one solution is to move (shift) your factories to another country where the labor is cheaper This was the beginning of the Trend of Transference in the 20th century

  35. Around when did this trend start? 1960

  36. During the 60’s we saw many manufacturing companies move from DC to LDC But moving is a big deal right?

  37. Do you think it was mostly small industries

  38. Or Large scale manufacturing that moved?

  39. What do you think was the biggest push to move in the 60’s? *Remember, by this time, many of the European and North American countries already had well established (long history) of Secondary industries—what do you think was happening to working conditions there?

  40. The governments of LDC countries saw that when factories and secondary industries move to their country, they get more jobs, and more money, and more technology!
