Why does spatial inequality exist in india

Social Studies
1 answer:
andre [41]3 years ago

India is suddenly in the news for all the wrong reasons. It is now hitting the headlines as one of the most unequal countries in the world, whether one measures inequality on the basis of income or wealth.

So how unequal is India? As the economist Branko Milanovic says: “The question is simple, the answer is not.” Based on the new India Human Development Survey (IHDS), which provides data on income inequality for the first time, India scores a level of income equality lower than Russia, the United States, China and Brazil, and more egalitarian than only South Africa.
According to a report by the Johannesburg-based company New World Wealth, India is the second-most unequal country globally, with millionaires controlling 54% of its wealth. With a total individual wealth of $5,600 billion, it’s among the 10 richest countries in the world – and yet the average Indian is relatively poor.

Compare this with Japan, the most equal country in the world, where according to the report millionaires control only 22% of total wealth.

In India, the richest 1% own 53% of the country’s wealth, according to the latest data from Credit Suisse. The richest 5% own 68.6%, while the top 10% have 76.3%. At the other end of the pyramid, the poorer half jostles for a mere 4.1% of national wealth.

What’s more, things are getting better for the rich. The Credit Suisse data shows that India’s richest 1% owned just 36.8% of the country’s wealth in 2000, while the share of the top 10% was 65.9%. Since then they have steadily increased their share of the pie. The share of the top 1% now exceeds 50%.

This is far ahead of the United States, where the richest 1% own 37.3% of total wealth. But India’s finest still have a long way to go before they match Russia, where the top 1% own a stupendous 70.3% of the country’s wealth.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

A) judging, criticizing, and placing blame.

Explanation:

First of all, the social worker is not even considering the possibility that Andrew could have been fired without justification, or that he could get his job back, he is placing blame exclussively on the worker (Andrew).

Besides, he is judging Andrew as an alcoholic, or at least, as a person who has serious problems with alcohol consumption (so serious to the point of going to work drunk and being fired because of that), and finally, the social worker is criticizing the way Andrew is dealing with his possible alcoholism, because he is telling Andrew that he is not even Aware of what alcohol is doing to him.

Rapid defibrillation is a link in the chain of survival why is this important to survival
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

It eliminates the abnormal heart rate.

Explanation:

The Chain of Survival should be applied when a patient is under cardiac arrest.

Cardiac arrest is mostly caused due to abnormal electrical activity in the victim's heart. This can result in ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia which, if not treated, could cause death.

An automated external defibrillator (AED) is designed to restore the heart's regular activity, by providing a heavy electric shock to the patient's chest. This a vital step in the chain of survival as it greatly increases the chances of survival.
