Economics
compare and contrast the economic conditions of two which are USA ( United States of America) and Denmark. The only constraint is that you must be able to find the following data for both:
1) GDP (Years 2000 and 2014/5)
2) GDP per capita (Years 2000 and 2014/5)
3) Population (2000 and 2014/5)
4) Poverty headcount and headcount ratio
5) Poverty gap index (?? – this one might be harder to find but see what you can do)
6) Measure or measures of health (life expectancy at birth and/or infant mortality rate)
7) Gini Index
For 4 – 7, if possible, find these numbers for the year 2000 as well as 2014/5. However, these can be trickier to find, so please just do your best to gather information that will illustrate the levels of poverty and inequality, over time if you can, in both countries.
Once you’ve gathered the data, your job is to create a short, blog-style written piece discussing your findings. You’ll need:
– An introductory paragraph stating your argument
– A brief discussion of your data and methods
– A table with the data, as well as a chart or graph if one makes sense
– A description of what the data tells you
– An explanation of how the data supports your argument
– A conclusion
You have to use the World Bank for USA ( United States of America) and Denmark.
