The Subject Matter of Economics

 

No one comes to economics as a traveller to an unknown land. Much of our everyday experience is related to economics. Studying economics is directly connected with very important things that involve everyone, such as unemployment, inflation, wages, poverty, taxes, banks, foreign currencies.

Economics is the science that deals with the production, distribution and consumption of wealth and with the various related problems of labour, finance, taxation etc. Economics is concerned with the economy or economic system. The economic system determines how the nation’s resources of land, labour, machinery and raw materials are allocated and used. The problem of allocating resources is a central theme of economics, because most resources are scarce. The allocation of scarce resources and the distribution of the product of those resources are a major part of the subject matter of economics.

In Western economies many resources are allocated to whoever is willing and able to pay the most for them. The distribution is determined by the amounts of money paid as wages, rent and other forms of income.

Economists use assumptions to build models, both for explanation and for prediction of economic events. They summarize conclusions on economic questions into economic principles. Western economists believe that all economic questions can be analysed by examining the decisions of individuals and the outcome of those decisions made by people as consumers or as managers of firms. The Marxist analysis of Western economies is based on the interrelations between social classes - workers and capitalists - whose interests and behaviour are regarded as uniform enough for a whole class to be seen as a single unit. The Communist system was based on an economic and social theory that called for a take-over of the state by the workers. Although Communist central planning did bring about strong economic growth in some countries - such as in the rapidly industrializing Soviet Union of the 1920s and 1930s - it often resulted in long-term inefficiency and economic stagnation.

A country’s economic system is its way of organizing economic activities, including the ways in which people come to specialize in particular tasks they do best. There is a variety of economic systems, which can be divided into three groups:

a) Market or decentralized economic systems in which economic decisions are taken by individuals. Free-market economists examine markets using a fundamental method of economics: supply and demand analysis.

b) Planned or centralized economic systems, in which economic decisions are taken by government planners.

c) Mixed economic systems, in which many economic activities are organized in a decentralized way, but in which the government takes some of the most important economic decisions. In practice, every economic system is mixed to some extent.

Economics is connected with such sciences as psychology, history, law, political science, accounting, engineering, mathematics and statistics.

1... that involve everyone -... которые касаются каждого

2 economics is concerned with... - экономика имеет дело с...

3 by examining - путем изучения /изучая

The English We Learn

 

There are many words in English. It is not easy to remember all of them. Learning English is sometimes easy and sometimes difficult for you. Much depends on your interest and responsiveness. Certainly, there are a few students in your group who know English rather well. Do your best1 to catch up with them2.

English is one of the major languages in the world. There are many countries in which English is spoken. People use English as their mother tongue or as a second language for cultural and professional purposes. English has the largest vocabulary with approximately 800 000 words, including many thousands of terms and phrases in the world of economics, finance and credit, banking, management of money, marketing and business accounting.

English is one of those languages which for many seems easy in the beginning. It has very few endings, many nouns and verbs have the same form (for example, “ to take a swim” “ to swim in the river”). But English is by no means3 an easy language to learn. There is the problem of spelling and pronunciation, of the large number of exceptions to any rule, it is very idiomatic and prepositions are terrible. The tense system is also very complicated. Geographically, English is the most widespread language on Earth, second only to Chinese in the number of people who speak it.

It is important for a specialist to know a foreign language. This textbook aims to help students of economics understand English as it appears in various scientific publications and discussions. This book is concerned4 with the language for special purposes, a sort of restricted English which has restricted vocabulary and grammar.

Better language skills depend on your ability to pay attention5 to structural differences between English and Russian, on your ability to sometimes guess the meaning of words in context.

 


1 to do one’s best - сделать все возможное

2 to catch up with somebody - нагонять/догонять кого-либо

3 by no means - ни в коем случае/никоим образом

4 to be concerned with - иметь дело с чем-либо/касаться чего-либо

5 to pay attention to - обращать внимание на..

STATISTICS ON BRITONS

When the 1st National Management Salary Survey was published in 1973, the average employee earned £ 2, 500 per annum, drove a Ford Cortina and lived in a house that cost just £ 10, 700. Benny Hill was the most popular TV entertainer and calculators and golfball typewriters were the last word in chic.

In 1998, with the publication of the 25th survey, the average employee earned £ 15, 500, drove a Ford Fiesta and could buy a house for £ 68, 500. Soaps ruled on the box, with East Enders the most popular show, and a mobile phone and internet addresses were absolutely essential. A lot of Britons owned video recorders, CDs and labour saving devices such as dishwashers.

Home life was very different in 1973. Only 49% of homes had a telephone – figure which went up to 93 per cent in 1998. Seventy four per cent had a washing machine (1998: 90%) and 30% had colour TV (1998: 97%).

Looking at management pay, in 1973 the average manager earned £ 5, 000 a year – twice the average earnings – and the average director earned £ 11, 000 – more than four times the national average. In 1998, the average manager earned £ 36, 000, just over twice the national average, while the director’s average was £ 93, 787 a year, six times the national figure.

In 1973, 56% of households ran a car, compared with more than 70 per cent twenty-five years later. The most popular car, the Ford Cortina, cost £ 1, 227. An equivalent model of the 1998 most popular car, the Ford Fiesta, cost just over £ 10, 000.

The average house price in Britain in 1973 was £ 10, 700 - just over four times average earnings - in 1998 it was £ 68, 500 - nearly four and a half times average earnings. But the structure of society also changed. Twenty-five years ago half the households in Britain were made up of one or two people. The rest were in households of three or more. In 1998, 63 per cent of households were one or two persons and only 37% had three or more.

The character and culture of the workforce changed significantly. In 1973, the labour force was made up of 63 per cent of men and 37 per cent of women. The number of women managers was negligible, comprising less than two per cent of the two million managers in the UK. Twenty-five years later, half the workforce were women and the proportion of women managers was approaching one in five (18 per cent).

Microsoft Corporation

Microsoft Corporation is the leading American computer software company. Microsoft develops and sells a wide variety of software products to businesses and consumers in more than 50 countries. The company’s Windows operating systems for personal computers are the most widely used operating systems in the world. Microsoft has its headquarters in Redmond, Washington. Microsoft’s other well-known products include Word, a word processor; Excel, a spreadsheet program; Access, a data base program; and PowerPoint, a program for making business presentations. Microsoft’s Internet Explorer allows users to browse the World Wide Web. Among the company’s other products are games, financial software, programming languages for software developers, input devices, such as keyboards, and computer-related books.

Microsoft was founded in 1975 by William H. Gates and Paul Allen in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The pair had teamed up in high school in Seattle, Washington, where they were first introduced to computers and programming languages in 1968. In 1979 Microsoft relocated to the Seattle area, and in 1981 the company released the highly successful MS-DOS operating system, which rapidly became the standard operating system for personal computers.

Under Gates’s leadership, Microsoft expanded rapidly in the 1980s and the 1990s, driven by the success of its applications software and operating systems. The company’s Windows operating systems, which employed a graphical user interface, became the most widely used operating systems for personal computers. As the company grew, the value of its stock boomed. In 1987, at age 31, Gates – who then owned about 40 percent of the company’s stock – became the youngest self-made billionaire in American history. By 1998, he had amassed a personal fortune in excess of $50 billion, making him the wealthiest individual in the world.

At Microsoft, Paul Allen worked to develop some of the company’s most innovative and popular products, including Windows, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Mouse. In 1982 Allen learned that he had Hodgkin’s disease, a form of cancer. The disease went into remission after radiation treatment, but the illness caused Allen to reevaluate his lifestyle. In 1983 he left his position at Microsoft, but remained on the company’s board of directors and retained a sizable percentage of the company’s stock. He spent much of the next two years traveling, reading and scuba diving. In 1985 Allen started Asymetrix Corporation, which makes software used in the creation of multimedia. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the value of Microsoft stock increased enormously, making Allen one of the world’s richest individuals. He has used his wealth to invest in a number of multimedia, telecommunications, and entertainment companies. Allen’s charitable foundations have donated millions of dollars to support educational institutions, cancer research, and cultural organizations.

Microsoft Corporation now employs about 22, 230 people. Its annual revenues amount to $11, 358 million and profits rose to $3, 454 million. Microsoft Corporation ranks 145th among 500 biggest American companies sorted by revenue.
