Around the world countries follow development pathways. Countries progress through these pathways through development of their economy, political stability, industry, health and social services and employment. Countries that achieve high development in all of these categories are seen to achieve MEDC status.1
In recent years India, China and The United Arab Emirates have seen massive acceleration in development, however these are still very much classed as newly industrialising countries. Each have developed differently and developed different parts of their country. In this essay I will be discovering and investigating which country is likely to develop further and faster than the others.
NIC’s are countries whose level of economic development ranks it somewhere between the developing and first-world classifications. These countries have moved away from an agriculture-based economy and into a more industrialized, urban economy.
In the past countries around the world have followed the industrialisation method of developing. The demographic transition model highlights this industrialisation trend of development using examples of western countries.
How sustainable a country’s birth and death rate can highlight the future of development in the country. The development transition model (as shown in figure 1) is said to highlight how a country develops from a less developed country, to a more economically developed country.
China has a low birth rate and a high death rate, 12.29 and 7.03, indicating a stage 3-4 stage of the demographic transition model, this is similar to other MEDC countries. When comparing this with India, a high birth rate and a low death rate indicates that the population is still increasing. Therefore in order to fully develop, the country must reduce its birth rate.
The United Arab Emirates out of all the countries has the highest birth rate and the lowest death rate, 15.87
