A spectacular population increase has accompanied the west coast’s industrial revolution. The Portland metropolitan area showed a 31 per cent increase in population since 1940; the Seattle area shows an increase in population for the same period of 200,000; and an estimated 1,500,000 people have entered California since 1940. Since most industrial activity on the west coast is confined to the manufacture of aircraft and the construction of ships, sharp curtailment of employment is threatened in the post-war period. With a population increase of 14 per cent, California, for example, faces the problem of shifting 1,500,000 workers from war activities to civilian jobs after the war. . . .

The typical white defense migrant is a young man, twenty-five years of age or younger, married, from a small town or rural area in the Pacific Northwest, anxious to settle in the area, and primarily interested in industrial employment in the post-war period. A study made recently in the Kaiser yards in Portland indicates that only 23.6 per cent of the migrants expressed a definite intention to leave after the war; that only a very few have maintained economic ties elsewhere or have jobs to which they might return; that considerable numbers have purchased property in the area; that a majority have their families with them; and that 86 per cent must find new employment immediately after their present employment terminates.

What issues may arise if nominal gross domestic product was used instead of real gross domestic product?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Real gross domestic product is simply refered to the economic output of a particular country which has been adjusted for price changes as inflation was taken into consideration.

Nominal gross domestic product is the measurement of the gross domestic product of a particular country which makes use of current prices, and isn't inflation adjusted.

The issue that may arise when nominal gross domestic product was used instead of real gross domestic product is that the nominal GDP leads to the inflation of the growth figure in the economy. This is because the nominal GDP doesn't take inflation into effect.

This leads to the misleading of the GDP since there'll be an overstatement of the GDP even though it was actually a rise in the inflation rate for the particular economy.

The concept of continuity relates to historical developments and processes because historians can link the happenings in the past to recent occurrences.

  • The concept of continuity simply explains the continuation of a cycle and it shows the connection that exists between historical events.

  • Changes take place at different times which are then linked forward and backward in time. Continuity refers to the continuance of themes.

  • The concept of continuity is vital as historians are able to link what has occurred earlier to the recent things that are happening. For example, Islam had an influence on African culture and its development.

In conclusion, continuity is important to historians.
