The US and its co-sponsors seek reduction or elimination of non-tariff barriers on remanufactured products, arguing that such trade will help developing countries by increasing access to low-cost quality goods and technology, and will be environment friendly by reducing waste creation and exploitation of natural resources. Leading developing countries are, however, concerned that unrestricted import of such products could hurt their domestic manufacturing industries and result in dumping of waste and lower-quality products, with adverse environmental and consumer safety consequences.

Tip of the Day While solving logical reasoning questions, it is always beneficial to represent the conditions in the form of dynamic diagrams i.e. diagrams in which all the conditiions can be accomodated and represented together as a whole. Last year's Question of the day (01-Apr-11) The term historiography also denotes a body of historical work on a specialized topic. Scholars discuss historiography topically – such as the "historiography of Catholicism," the "historiography of early Islam," or the "historiography of China" – as well as specific approaches and genres, such as political history. In the early nineteenth century, at the ascent of academic history, a corpus of historiography literature developed. The research interests of historians changed over time, and in recent decades there has been a shift away from traditional diplomatic, economic and political history toward newer approaches- social and cultural studies. From 1975 to 1995, the proportion of professors of history in American universities identifying with social history rose from 31% to 41%, while the proportion of political historians fell from 40% to 30%.
Which of the following can be concluded from the passage?
| OPTIONS | | | | | 1) | Historiography can't be about a specific subject. | | | 2) | Out of every 100 professors at a university, if in 1975 there were 31 studying social history, only 40 were studying political history. | | | 3) | Out of every 100 professors at a university in America, if in 1975 there were 31 studying social history, only 40 were studying political history. | | | 4) | Social and cultural historiographies weren't traditionally studied. | | | 5) | Out of every 100 professors at a university in America, if in 1975 there were 31 studying social history, in 1995 the number had fallen to 15. |
