are constantly facing changes that come from shifts at the macro, meso and micro levels. This paper discusses these shifts and the meaning they have for humans within the
ecosystem. Definitions and Parameters Before we can discuss the way in which micro, meso and macro forces influence human development, we should probably define them. According
to the theory, "micro-, meso- and macro-levels are fully integrated, and simply present pictures of the economy at varying levels of detail" (Elson, 1995, p. 43). The macro-level describes
the economy at the national and international level, and includes such things as gross national product, which is viewed as the aggregate of all the activities taking place at the
micro (individual) and meso (institutional) levels (Elson, 1995). The companies that operate at the meso level do so because it is more economical to "create institutions to economize on
the costs of conducting transactions" than it is for individuals to try to deal singly in the marketplace (Elson, 1995). In this system, things that are "economically rational" for
the individual are also "economically rational ... [for] society as a whole" (Elson, 1995, p. 43). Further, if things are not working well for individuals, the problems
are considered to lie at the macro and meso levels (Elson, 1995). The wrong policies, at either the national or institutional level, will prevent the government or the company
from being able to adapt easily to change, and leave it vulnerable to external "shocks" (Elson, 1995). In sum, then, these three forces work on all of us all
