It’s hard to imagine our lives without coins, banknotes and credit cards.
Yet for
most of human history people lived without money.
For thousands of years human
societies had very simple economies.
There were no shops, markets or traders.
There were no employers, paid workers or salaries.
Today, we call this kind of
economy the traditional economy, and in some parts of Asia, South America and
Africa this system still exists.
People who live in a traditional economy don’t have money because they
don’t need it.
They live lives of subsistence.
That means they hunt, gather or grow
only enough food to live.
There is almost no surplus in the traditional economy,
and there is almost no property.
Families may own simple accommodation but land
is shared by all the tribe.
Economic decisions are taken according to the customs of
the tribe.
For example, every family may need to give some of the crops they grow
to the tribal leader, but keep the rest for themselves.
They don’t do this because it
makes economic sense.
They do it because the tribe has always done it.
It’s simply
a custom.
Custom, also, decides what jobs people do in the traditional economy.
People generally do the jobs that their parents and grandparents did before them.
Anyway, there aren’t many jobs to choose from in the traditional economy.
Men
are hunters, farmers or both.
The women’s place is at home looking after children,
cooking and home - making.
This division of labour between men and women is
another characteristic of the traditional economy.
Whatever the work is, and
whoever does it, you can be sure it’s hard work.
This is because traditional
economies have almost no technology.
Physical strength and knowledge of the
environment are the tools for survival.
Like any other economic system the traditional economy has its benefits and
drawbacks.
Probably the biggest benefit is that these are peaceful societies.
People
consume almost everything they produce and own practically nothing.
They are
equally poor.
For all these reasons war is almost unknown in these societies.
However people who live in traditional societies are among the poorest
people in the world.
Because custom decides what people do nothing in these
societies ever changes.
Because there is no technology, people depend on nature to
survive.
They have no protection from environmental disasters like droughts and
floods.
They are always in danger of hunger and disease.
But the traditional economy is in danger itself.
There are only a few
examples left on the planet.
In 100 years from now it may have disappeared
forever.

KALAHARI DESERT Deserts cover about a fifth of the world's land area.
The Kalahari Desert covers most of Botswana, parts of Namibia and stretches into South Africa.
It is one of the world's largest deserts and it is four times the size of Britain, In the daytime, it is extremely hot, but at night it is cold.
The Kalahari does not have many plants and most of the animals that live there can survive underground.
This is because of the heat during the day, but they come out at night when it is cool.
However, the climate is changing and this desert does not have as much rain as it did a few years ago.
Experts say that the wind is becoming stronger, too.
This means that the sand is moving around the desert is actually getting bigger.
In fact, the sand might soon cover large areas of farm land READING Unfortunately, this could mean that the poorest people might have an even harder time surviving in the desert.
Most of them might have to move to a better place.
1. In which continent is the Kalahari Desert?
2. How big is Kalahari Desert?
3. Where do most of the animals in the Kalahari live?
4. Why is the Kalahari Desert getting bigger?
5. Why might the people who live there have to move somewhere else?

A Mixed Economy : The Role of the Market
The United States is said to have a mixed economy because privately owned businesses and government both play important roles.
Indeed, some of the most enduring debates of American economic history focus on the relative roles of the public and private sectors.
The American free enterprise system emphasizes private ownership.
Private businesses produce most goods and services, and almost two - thirds of the nation's total economic output goes to individuals for personal use (the remaining one - third is bought by government and business).
The consumer role is so great, in fact, that the nation is sometimes characterized as having a "consumer economy.
" This emphasis on private ownership arises, in part, from American beliefs about personal freedom.
From the time the nation was created, Americans have feared excessive government power, and they have sought to limit government's authority over individuals – including its role in the economic realm.
In addition, Americans generally believe that an economy characterized by private ownership is likely to operate more efficiently than one with substantial government ownership.

Трудно представить себе нашу жизнь без монет, банкнот и кредитных карт.
Тем не менее для
большая часть человеческой истории люди жили без денег.
На протяжении тысячелетий человек
общества имели очень простые экономики.
Не было магазинов, рынков или торговцев.
Не было работодателей, оплачиваемых работников или зарплаты.
Сегодня мы называем этот вид
экономики традиционной экономики, а в некоторых частях Азии, Южной Америки и
Африка эта система все еще существует.
Люди, которые живут в традиционной экономике, не имеют денег, потому что они
не нужно.
Они живут жизнью на пропитание.
Это означает, что они охотятся, собираются или растут
только достаточно еды, чтобы жить.
В традиционной экономике почти нет излишков,
и почти нет собственности.
Семьи могут владеть простым жильем, но землю
разделяется всем племенем.
Экономические решения принимаются в соответствии с обычаями
племя.
Например, каждой семье может потребоваться дать некоторые из выращиваемых ими культур
для племенного лидера, но остальное для себя.
Они этого не делают, потому что это
имеет экономический смысл.
Они делают это, потому что племя всегда это делало.
Это просто
обычай.
Пользовательский, также, решает, какие рабочие места люди делают в традиционной экономике.
Люди обычно выполняют задания, которые делали перед ними их родители и бабушки и дедушки.
Во всяком случае, в традиционной экономике не так много рабочих мест.
Мужчины
охотники, фермеры или оба.
Женское место дома ухаживает за детьми,
приготовления пищи и домашнего приготовления.
Это разделение труда между мужчинами и женщинами
еще одна характеристика традиционной экономики.
Какая бы работа ни была, и
кто бы это ни сделал, вы можете быть уверены, что это тяжелая работа.
Это связано с тем, что традиционные
экономики практически не имеют технологий.
Физическая сила и знание
окружающая среда являются инструментами для выживания.
Как и любая другая экономическая система, традиционная экономика имеет свои преимущества и
недостатки.
Вероятно, самое большое преимущество в том, что это мирные общества.
Люди
потребляют почти все, что они производят, и практически ничего не имеют.
Они есть
одинаково бедных.
По всем этим причинам война почти неизвестна в этих обществах.
Однако люди, которые живут в традиционных обществах, относятся к числу самых бедных
людей в мире.
Поскольку пользователь решает, что люди ничего не делают в этих
общества когда - либо меняются.
Поскольку технологии отсутствуют, люди зависят от природы
выжить.
Они не имеют защиты от экологических бедствий, таких как засухи и
наводнения.
Они всегда находятся под угрозой голода и болезней.
Но традиционная экономика находится в опасности.
Есть только несколько
примеры, оставленные на планете.
Через 100 лет она, возможно, исчезла
навсегда.
