Privatization

Privatization was the primary goal of the 1991 industrial policy. This policy aimed to reduce the role of the public sector in the economy and promote private sector participation through deregulation, liberalization, and the opening up of industries to foreign investment.

Import substitution: This was a strategy pursued in earlier decades and was being reversed in 1991. The 1991 policy aimed to reduce trade barriers, not build them.
Export promotion: While export promotion was a component, it was a secondary objective achieved via the broader economic reforms, not the defining primary goal.
Selfreliance: The policy moved away from the inwardlooking approach of selfreliance and towards greater integration with the global economy.

Protecting against tyranny

Explanation:

The separation of powers, as advocated by thinkers like Montesquieu, is fundamentally designed to prevent the concentration of power in any single branch of government. By dividing governmental authority among legislative, executive, and judicial branches, each with its own distinct responsibilities and powers that can check the others, the risk of any one branch becoming too powerful and oppressive is significantly reduced. This system of checks and balances is a cornerstone of preventing tyranny and safeguarding individual liberties.

Why the other options are less suitable:

This design inherently creates friction and deliberation, slowing down decisionmaking.
The entire concept is about distributing power, not consolidating it.
It is not primarily concerned with optimizing the functioning of administrative organizations.

Rohr argues that the separation of powers is crucial for which reason?

This video tackles a tricky economics question: which economic principle is violated by the existence of Giffen goods? We delve into the concept of Giffen goods – those peculiar products where, despite a price increase, demand *also* increases, defying the typical law of demand. Forget everything you thought you knew about supply and demand curves! We'll break down this seemingly paradoxical behavior using clear explanations and relatable examples.

The video uses simple visuals and concise explanations to illustrate the law of demand and how Giffen goods deviate from it. We explore the underlying factors contributing to this unusual phenomenon, primarily focusing on the income effect and substitution effect. We examine scenarios where the income effect outweighs the substitution effect, leading to the counter-intuitive increase in demand despite a higher price. Think of it as a battle between your budget and your taste – where budget wins!

This isn't just theory; we'll use real-world examples of Giffen goods to make the concept stick. We'll also clarify the distinction between Giffen goods and other types of goods to avoid confusion. By the end of this short, you'll have a firm grasp of Giffen goods and understand precisely which fundamental economic principle their existence challenges.

Law of Demand

The Law of Demand states that, all other things being equal, as the price of a good increases, the quantity demanded of that good decreases, and vice versa. Giffen goods are a specific type of good for which this relationship is reversed. As the price of a Giffen good increases, the quantity demanded increases. This directly contradicts the fundamental principle of the Law of Demand. The increased price, in this case, leads to a decreased real income and the consumer switches from a more expensive alternative good to the more affordable inferior Giffen good, hence the demand increases.

Law of Diminishing Returns: This principle describes the decrease in marginal output of a production process as more units of a variable input are used while holding other inputs constant. It has nothing to do with consumer demand.

Law of Supply: This principle describes the relationship between price and quantity supplied by producers, not consumer demand.

Law of Comparative Advantage: This principle focuses on the efficiency of resource allocation between different producers, not consumer behavior.

Which economic principle is directly violated by the existence of Giffen goods?

Fiscal policy coordination.

A successful economic union requires coordinated fiscal policies to avoid destabilizing economic imbalances between member states. Different fiscal policies can lead to variations in inflation, interest rates, and exchange rates, which can create significant disruptions within a single economic area. Coordinated fiscal policies aim to mitigate these risks, fostering stability and promoting overall economic growth within the union. This ensures a level playing field and prevents competitive disadvantages for some members due to divergent fiscal approaches.

Centralized political control is not a necessary condition, although it might be beneficial in some aspects. Many successful economic unions function without complete political centralization.

A common defense policy is beneficial for overall security and stability, but isn't strictly necessary for the economic success of a union. Economic unions can exist and flourish even without a shared defense structure.

A unified foreign policy is also desirable, improving the union's international standing and negotiating power. However, it is not essential for successful economic integration. Many economic unions maintain diverse foreign policies among member states.

Sankosh

The Sankosh River is notorious for its significant erosion and meandering patterns along the IndiaBhutan border. This erosion leads to changes in the river's course, causing the border, which is often defined by the river's channel, to shift over time. The river's high discharge during the monsoon season exacerbates this issue, contributing to increased bank erosion and deposition elsewhere. The river's braided nature also contributes to frequent changes in its course.

While the Manas River also flows through the region, it is not as wellknown or documented for causing the same level of bordershifting erosion as the correct one. The Teesta River is located further east and does not directly form the IndiaBhutan border. The Wang Chhu, while an important river in Bhutan, is primarily within Bhutan's territory and doesn't have a significant borderaltering impact.

The Brihadaranyaka Upanishad is widely considered the most important and extensive of the Upanishads. It is renowned for its profound exploration of the concepts of Brahman (the ultimate reality) and Atman (the individual self). The Upanishad features extensive dialogues, particularly between the sage Yajnavalkya and his wife Maitreyi, that delve into the nature of Brahman, its identity with Atman, and the path to liberation through selfrealization. The Brihadaranyaka Upanishad provides a very comprehensive framework for understanding these core Vedantic principles.

Why other options are less suitable:

This Upanishad focuses more on the nature of sound and rituals.
This Upanishad delves into the nature of death and selfknowledge, but doesn't focus as thoroughly on the BrahmanAtman relationship as the correct answer.
This Upanishad discusses the path to liberation through knowledge, but its treatment of Brahman and Atman isn't as central or comprehensive as in the correct answer.
