  lead to conflict, war, or nothing) is affected by
  many factors.
• IFs conceptualizes the threat by a concrete term
  called militarized international dispute (MID).
• Calculates threat from 2 directions
• Data based - facts on historical threat levels by
  dyad.
• Predictive - Evolution of key factors that have
  been show to give rise to disputes.
• Three factors seem to carry special weight in
  determining the threats of disputes Contiguity,
  whether or not countries are great powers, and

  GDP, increasing final demand and investment.

• GDP Domestic Income Wages Rents Interest
  Profits
• The Expenditure Approach 
• GDP E C I G (X - Z)
• where E Expenditure Total Spending on final
  goods and services
• C Consumption Spending X Exports
• I Investment Spending Z Imports

Nutrition

• A healthy person keeps a balance between calories
  needed and calories taken in.
• The population of a given country determines the
  calorie need, which in comparison to calorie
  availability determines nutrition level among
  children.
• Starvation increases mortality and decreases
  population.
• Factors that lead to malnutrition could be
  decreased yields as a result of drought or
  famine, or decrease of food imports as a result
  of capital flow restrictions in the economy.
