2. Arvestustöö Otsi välja üks arenguga seotud analüüs, raport, andmebaas Vali välja huvitav/ kõnekas võrdlus ja paku sellele omapoolne selgitus/interpretatsioon Arvestustöö orienteeruv sisukord: • Sissejuhatus: võrdlusandmete esitus ja selgitus andmeallika kohta • Interpretatsioon: miks selliseid andmeid kogutakse, millest nad räägivad, kuidas on pakutav võrdlus käsitletav arengu vaatepunktist, võrdlusest johtuvad sõnumid • Ettepanekud: kriitilised märkused + sinu soovitused andmekogujale - mida oleks selle teema kohta veel oluline teada, kellele võiksid sellised võrdlused kasuks tulla

3. Arvestustöö Töö maht ca 4-5 lk. Valmis töö tuleb Moodle’sse üles panna. Tööd vaatan üle ja kannan arvestused sisse 4.jaanuaril 2013; 18.jaanuaril 2013; 21. märtsil 2013. Kasutada võib nii loengutes tutvustatud allikaid kui ka teisi arenguga seotud ja rahvusavahelist võrdlust pakkuvaid tekste, raporteid jms. Järgnevalt näiteid võimalikest allikatest ja vaatepunktidest, mille alusel arvestustööd koostada.

4. IndexofEconomicFreedomHeritageFoundation, 2012 Economic freedom is the fundamental right of every human to control his or her own labor and property. In an economically free society, individuals are free to work, produce, consume, and invest in any way they please, with that freedom both protected by the state and unconstrained by the state. In economically free societies, governments allow labor, capital and goods to move freely, and refrain from coercion or constraint of liberty beyond the extent necessary to protect and maintain liberty itself.

9. Reporters Without Borders Press Freedom Index Reporters Without Borders has repeatedly expressed its concern about the deteriorating pressfreedom situation in the European Union and the 2010 index confirms this trend. Thirteen of the EU’s 27 members are in the top 20 but some of the other 14 are very low in the ranking. Italy is 49th, Romania is 52nd and Greece and Bulgaria are tied at 70th. The European Union is not a homogenous whole as regards media freedom. On the contrary, the gap between good and bad performers continues to widen.

13. NB! Arvestustöö on individuaalne. Sama allikat/andmestikku võivad kasutada erinevad autorid. Kasutada võib nii loengutes tutvustatud andmebaase kui ka ise leitud võrdlusi. Oluline: tegu peab olema arenguga seotud ning mitmeid riike/piirkondi/linnasid haarava võrdlusega 13.12. seminar + konsultatsioon.
