Throughout most of human history, people lived in relatively small, egalitarian bands. With the advent of farming, stratified societies began to emerge and today dominate the human landscape. Conclusion

Consider a relatively small, tropical island nation (using the customary standard for size comparison, this nation is roughly 35 Rhode Islands). It has a healthy, well-educated population and the population growth is stable. Its economy has been stagnant at best, declining at worst for 50 years. The government has been very controlling it is totalitarian but it may move to a parliamentary system in the next few years. There is adequate arable land for farming. Mining is not viable since no extractable resources exist.

Outline an economic growth plan for this nation that will give it a stable economy for the foreseeable future.
