决于这是国内战争还是世界大战?
What will happen to the trade balance and the real exchange rate of a small open economy when government purchases inerease, such as during a war? Does your answer depend on whether this is a local war or a world war?
Compared with its neighbours' economies, Britain's has been doing very nicely in recent years. Only one big threat looms: the possibility of a bust in the overheated and volatile housing market, which could feed through to the rest of the economy and lead to recession, as happened in the early 1990s. The government reckons that one reason why house prices have been rising so fast, particularly in the south-east of England, is that, while real wages have been going up and foreigners pouring in, little new housing is being built.
Nimbyism helps explain the shortage of new housing in the south-east. People living in pretty villages don't want new estates on their doorstep. After all, they spent their hard-earned cash on a view of rolling acres, not of spanking new red-tiled roofs. Nimbys' hostility to development acquires legal force through the planning system, which has, in large part, been controlled by elected local authorities.
Although some big new developments—including the first new towns since the early 1970s—are getting the go-ahead, others are hard-fought. The government's solution is to undermine local planning powers. The new Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act, which starts to come into force next month, shifts power from elected county councils to unelected regional bodies, and gives statutory force to the government's estimates of the number of new houses needed in different bits of the country. That will make it harder for councils in overheated areas to turn down developers.
The government is right that the planning system is excessively biased against growth: existing property-owners, who control the system through local authorities, have little interest in sanctioning developments which may reduce the value of their houses. But the government was wrong to go about lowering the barriers to development by talking power away from local authorities, thus further centralizing Britain's already far-too-centralised political system.
According to the text, Downing Street No. 10 is in an awkward predicament of
A.real estate development.
B.gardening expansion.
C.hostility to scarcity.
D.economic recession.
(c) In October 2004, Volcan commenced the development of a site in a valley of ‘outstanding natural beauty’ on
which to build a retail ‘megastore’ and warehouse in late 2005. Local government planning permission for the
development, which was received in April 2005, requires that three 100-year-old trees within the valley be
preserved and the surrounding valley be restored in 2006. Additions to property, plant and equipment during
the year include $4·4 million for the estimated cost of site restoration. This estimate includes a provision of
$0·4 million for the relocation of the 100-year-old trees.
In March 2005 the trees were chopped down to make way for a car park. A fine of $20,000 per tree was paid
to the local government in May 2005. (7 marks)
