AS/A Level World Development

UPDATED 20160219 10:24:45

Why are some countries poorer than others? What causes poverty, and how can life be made better for everybody in the world? Is economic development ruining the planet? What impact does our lifestyle have on the resources and people of the world? This course will help you to answer questions like these through an understanding of the important social, economic and environmental issues that we face in the world today. However, the subject is not just about faraway countries as uneven development and inequality are important issues in the UK as well.
