Apparently, the rate of change has been too rapid for Chinese leaders to adjust to it.

But a temporary and modestly higher inflation rate would facilitate the adjustment process and give reforms a chance to work.

It also noted the high fertility rate and its negative impact on the status of women in addition to the difficulty caused by the current adjustment programmes.

If climate change occurs more rapidly than the rate at which natural systems can adapt by migration, behavioural adjustment or genetic mutation, some species may find that their current and traditional habitats have become intolerable.

I can't fit in here. You can't fit in there.

They are better at adjusting to external economic shocks (such as terms of trade declines or sudden stops in capital inflows).

A case was made for a supportive international environment in order to increase the rate of success of the adjustment programmes on which such a large number of developing countries were embarking.

If the north insists on maintaining the low wage growth of the 2000 2010 period, internal adjustment would require significant unemployment and deflation in the south, making it more difficult and perhaps politically impossible to achieve.

The rapid increase in poverty, particularly in the rural areas, is also affected by government cutbacks in health, education and social services that were part of the remedial measures of structural adjustment policies.

So the average velocity is just going to be the average of these two values.
