People From Clarence, New York
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty. In contrast, a people is any plurality of persons considered as a whole. Used in politics and law, the term "a people" refers to the collective or community of an ethnic group or nation. Concepts Legal Chapter One, Article One of the Charter of the United Nations states that "peoples" have the right to self-determination. Though the mere status as peoples and the right to self-determination, as for example in the case of Indigenous peoples (''peoples'', as in all groups of indigenous people, not merely all indigenous persons as in ''indigenous people''), does not automatically provide for independent sovereignty and therefore secession. Indeed, judge Ivor Jennings identified the inherent problems in the right of "peoples" to self-determination, as i ...

Market Development
Market development is a growth strategy that identifies and develops new market segments for current products. It involves marketing existing products in new markets. A development strategy targets non-buying customers in currently targeted segments. It also targets new customers in new segments.

New users can be defined as new geographic segments, new demographic segments, new institutional segments or new psychographic segments.

For discontinuous innovations, which are those that impose a change of behavior, new learning, or a new process on the buyer or end user, a focused market development strategy is needed to bridge the gap between the early market and the mainstream. A marketing manager is involved in many considerations before implementing a market development strategy, like whether the market is profitable, w ...
