popular refrain about the North Korean economy is that it is reverting to a command-andcontrol economy in the face of sanctions and pandemic isolation. An example is a Washington Post article from February, which claimed Kim Jong Un “turned his back on even modest economic and market reforms and reverted back to de facto Leninism, emphasizing central planning while trying to clamp down on the private entrepreneurial activity.” This claim reflects a misunderstanding of its current economic policy. Actually, Kim Jong Un’s economic reforms emphasizing markets and competition are continuing.Kim’s major change in North Korea’s economic policy was to encourage competition. Previously, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’s (DPRK) production unit was responsible for only executing the production targets required by the country. Through a constitutional amendment in 2019, North Korea abolished the “Taean [alternative] Work System,” the doctrine of economic management of business in the…

Romer’s (1986, 1990) approach to endogenous growth laid out a model which appeared to show that there were increasing returns to scale from technology and the accrual of savings to this technology. At a firm level, this seemed to imply that monopolies within a country would emerge. However, in reality, this is not the case. What is the reason that competition still survives in endogenous growth models (and, by extension, in reality)?

The rate of unemployment among people with tertiary level education has considerably risen.

In the 1990s, developed countries agreed to double their aid to Africa by 2015. A report by the United Nations conference on Trade and Development noted that sceptics had raised concerns about how much effect the doubling of aid would have on output and incomes in Africa, if the quantity of other inputs such as human capacity and institutions were to remain fixed. It also pointed to the divisions between the sceptics with some suggesting the return would diminish when aid reached only 4% of GDP, while others thought they would diminish only when it had reached 50%. It should be added that even if the returns do begin to diminish, they could still be very important.In 1887, Cecil Rhodes created the De Beers Consolidated mines Company, which controlled about 90% of the total world supply of rough uncut diamonds with its South African mines.
