Management in Economies.

There are three types of management in economies. An economy may be almost planned, as it was in the Soviet Union. An economy may be almost totally unplanned, as it was in the USA. Or an economy may be a combination of planning and freedom of operation. Examples of such mixed economies are Japan and South Korea.

In a planned economy the government decides what goods are produced and how they are distributed. Governments set all the priorities, and the producers should follow these directions.

In a partially planned economy such as Japan's, the government often encourages industry and helps it with subsidies. Government also makes investments and regulates trade.

The United States is an example of an unplanned economy. Although it has a lot of government intervention in economic activity, but the economy of the United States are mostly unplanned because the government does not regulate what will be produced and how it will be distributed. These decisions are made by producers. The name of the American economic system is a free market economy.

The aim of any government is to run the economy in the most stable way, and to achieve a high level of economic growth. High economic growth creates higher levels of income and therefore higher living standards for the people in the economy.

Economy and Economics.

Economics is a science that analyzes what, how, and for whom society produces. The central economic problem is to reconcile the conflict be­tween people's unlimited demands with society's ability to produce goods and services. In industrial Western countries markets allocate resources. The market is the process by which production and consumption are coordinated through prices.

In a command economy, the government makes decisions on what, how, and for whom to produce. Economy cannot rely entirely on government, but there was extensive planning in many Soviet countries.

A free market economy has no government intervention. Resources are allocated through markets. Modern economies in the West are mixed and rely on the market but with a large dose of government intervention. The governments can influence for whom goods are produced, they intervene in economies controlling the supply of money, limiting monopolies and helping private industries.

The degree of government restrictions differs greatly between coun­tries that have planned economies and countries that have free market economies. Between the two main types lies the mixed economy where market and government are both very important.
