Application of Friedmann
Gutberlet. J. Impacts of Industrial Development in Brazil (web)
(These are just 2 of the many papers that TEACHERS could use to tease out the application of the
models. What are the main arguments in the models? For example, for Myrdal, identify thespread
effects, that is the crumbs that flow from the core to the periphery. However emphasize
(demonstrate) that the flow in the opposite direction is faster so that the status quo is maintained.
For Friedmann, identify the initial advantage of an area, the increasing attraction to investors etc. and
the flow of labour and resources from the periphery as the core grows at the expense of the
periphery. Produce strong case studies)
