Across
  1. 3. the study of how people earn their living, how livelihood systtems vary by area, and how economic activities are spatially iterrelated and linked
  2. 4. Proposed by Alfred Weber. The optimum location of a manufacturing establishment in terms of minimization of three basic expenses: relative transport costs, labor costs, and agglomeration costs. Transport costs were the major consideration determining location. Raw materials to the factory and finished goods to the market were at their lowest.
  3. 5. tells us that areas tend to specialize in production of those items for which they have the greatest relative advantage over other areas, or for which they have the least relative disadvantage, as long as free trade exists
  4. 7. Farmers producing for off-farm sales who apply large amounts of capital and/or labor per unit of land.
  5. 13. the largest volume or rate of usethat will not impair its ability to be renewed or to maintain the same future productivity
  6. 18. the introduction of a freign element-investment, management, and marketing- into an indigenous culture and economy, often employing an introduced alien labor force
  7. 21. Applied to the fourth class of economic activities. Composed entirely of services rendered by white collar professionals working in education, government, management, information processing, and research.
  8. 25. proposed bu Alfred Weber and sometimes called Weberian Analysis
  9. 26. typified by large wheat farms and livestock ranching
  10. 27. Those that add value to materials by changing their form or combining them into more useful, and therefore more valuable, commodities. These include manufacturing and processing industries as well as construction.
  11. 28. those that harvest or extract something from the earh like hunting and gathering, grazing, agriculture, fishing, and forestry
  12. 29. the planning mechanism created to achieve economic development
Down
  1. 1. Private firms that have established branch operations in nations foreign to their headquarters country. A few TNCs account for 85% or more of world trade in wheat, coffee, cotton, iron ore, and timber. TNCs directly emply some 75 million persons at home and abroad, or about 10% of worldwide nonagricultural paid employment.
  2. 2. “Voluntary,”- actually, compulsory- producers’ cooperatives whose unpaid members lost their own land and joined brigades of other workers assigned specific tasks during the crop year
  3. 6. removing nonrenewable metallic and nonmetallic minerals, including the mineral fuels, from the earth's crust
  4. 8. the wandering but controlled movement of livestock solely dependent on natural forage
  5. 9. accure in the form of savings from shared transport facilities, social services, public utilities, communication facilities, and the like
  6. 10. involves large areas of land and minimal laborper hectare
  7. 11. a complex of seed and management improvements adapted to the needs of intensive agriculture that have brought larger harvests from a given area of farmland
  8. 12. the clustering of productive activities and people for mutual advantage
  9. 14. goods and services are created for the use of the producers and their kinship groups
  10. 15. involves the cultivation of small land holdings through the expenditure of great amounts of labor per acre
  11. 16. The planning mechanism created to achieve such economic development. It was assigned responsibility to develop necessary regional infrastructure, to facilitate the specialization of individual enterprises, and to promote overall regional economic growth and integration.
  12. 17. communist-controlled societies that have now collapsed in nearly every country where they were formerly created or imposed, producers or their agents disposed of goods and services through government agencies that controlled both supply and price. Quantities and locational patterns of production were tightly programmed by central planning departments.
  13. 19. based on harvesting the natural bounty of renewable resources
  14. 20. clearing and use, the soils of those lose many of their nutrients and farmers cultivating them need to move on after harvesting several crops. they rotate fields rather than crops to maintain productivity
  15. 22. Have become dominant in nearly all culture areas, producers or their agents freely market their goods and services, the laws of supply and demand determine price and quantity, and market competition is the primary force shaping production decisions and associations.
  16. 23. Government enterprises operated by paid employees of the state
  17. 24. Those that add value to materials by changing their form or combining them into more useful, and therefore more valuable, commodities. These include manufacturing and processing industries as well as construction.
