(i)
State the meaning of Special Economic Zone (SEZ).
(ii)
Discuss the ‘One Child Policy’ adopted by China.
Marking-scheme solution
(i)
Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is a geographical region that has economic laws different from a country’s typical economic laws.
(ii)
The ‘One Child Policy’ adopted by China in the late 1970s aimed to control rapid population growth.
It significantly reduced population expansion but led to unintended consequences like a declining sex ratio due to son preference.
Over time, it also resulted in an ageing population with fewer young people.
To address these issues, China later revoked the policy and allowed couples to have two children.
