In your view, what institutions/preconditions are most critical for encouraging the beneficial participation of the least-industrialized economies in a globalized economy? Are those institutions/preconditions national or international in nature? What measures would be useful for evaluating participation and improvements?
Please nominate another current event (not on the institutions/preconditions for globalization to benefit the least-industrialized economies) using a quick one or two sentence statement and/or web page link highlighting a current event and its connection to the module’s topic of Intellectual Property. Note that the course’s library page Links to an external site. has instructions for gaining free access to both the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. Those and The Economist are frequently reliable resources for quickly locating current event nominations – some reading will be involved, however!
