developing economy:

... a defined area of activity related to the production and distribution of goods and services wherein conditions of opportunity are dynamic rather than static (see the definition of development economy). the structure or condition of the production, development, distribution and management of material wealth in a location. The definition of basic economy is divided into (1) command economy which is government controlled and (2) free market economy which is also called capitalism. Greg Last of Southlake, TX defines basic economy as ... economic activity within a community with a predominant market that lies outside the local economy (source of quote). conditions of opportunity within a location that would give vitality to the production and distribution of material wealth for the benefit of its community if properly infused, manipulated, and managed. The word underdeveloped may be used to identify a development economy when contrasting it to a developing economy. The latter expression identifies an economy in which one or more conditions of opportunity are no longer static, but not necessarily all; i.e., a development economy is one which appears to have the potential for economic development. Expressions, such as underdeveloped nation and developing counties are used to combine identities of locations with concerns for socioeconomic development. Economy-point.org, has a dissuasion of the common characteristics of the developing countries. Also, the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), Ottawa, ON has a PDF file online which starts out by stating: From the beginning of time, technology has been a key element in the growth and development of societies. In its effort to provide access to location data suppliers around the word standing ready to supply site selectors with information about development economies, The Network provides a global list of counties with links in the Area Development section of its Economic Development Network website.
