During these countries' transition to market economies, their service sectors have grown rapidly to meet previously unfulfilled demand and the needs of the emerging private sector. Growth of services in transition economies is particularly important because it allows these economies to employ a share of the educated labor force that might otherwise be unemployed due to the economic crisis. So, in addition to continued public support for health and education, growth of services can help formerly socialist countries preserve the stock of human capital that will be crucial to their postindustrial development. Think of the service industries that you consider particularly important for your country's sustainable development from different perspectives- economic, social, and environmental. 1 Agriculture here refers to crop cultivation, livestock production, forestry, fishing, and hunting.
Industry includes manufacturing, mining, construction, electricity, water, and gas.
