Today you'll learn something new. Era of action among friends is over. All would profess some characteristics to gang up together to detriment of the majority. Like The West. Which was funny since it included Australia and Japan. :-)

This is the today.

Countries may share some real characteristics. Like being inside the Demographic Window.
Have common interests. You need food and materials and another needs manufactured products.

screw unifying concept and cultural afinity! They are after doing business.

Urbanization effects on economy. Yes, amigo. India, China are urbanizing.

Reserve army of farming moves to town.
My mother bought a pressure cooker and a gas stove when we urbanized in 1966.

No more cooking with firewood (I missed the firewood stove in winters!
We had electricity bills to pay. We bought bus tickets to move around. Brothers and sister got urban jobs and the family income skyrockted (relatively speaking).

Only buying stoves, refrigerators, electric rice cooker is enough to China to grow at 5% :-).

The memory of urbanization is already deleted from rich countries. Thus they can't grasp the concept of urbanization not to mention quatify its effects in the economy.
