Modelling National Development Programmes
Article Abstract:
Recent developments in techniques of system description and qualitative analysis promulgated within a system dynamics structure are used in this research. The methods are pointed toward an overall appreciation of complicated issues. This methodology is used in the modeling of a five year national development program involving a third world country. The model has both rational detail and rational boundaries. Key variables can be highlighted in this modeling procedure. It will predict system behavior stemming from government policies and suggest other possible policies to facilitate various goals. The research focuses on the ways in which admirable economic directions can be convoluted by social and cultural movements. This model was a great basis for communication and comprehension. The implementation of economic programs is investigated thoroughly as to possible problems, relevant states of system resources, population distribution and sector investment. Tables of qualitative steps are included.

The year my voice broke
Article Abstract:
Actor Tom Conti saw the film 'The Great Caruso' 15 times in three weeks when he was 13. He was extremely moved by the music, and was fascinated with the life history of Caruso, the great Italian opera singer. Conti was brought up with opera, and had music lessons from an early age. He wanted to be a singer for some time, so identified very closely with Caruso. Events in the film were later to be reflected in his own life in his relationship with his parents.
