This week we discussed the value of NGO’s (non-governmental organizations) have on global governance. Using the internet, select any NGO of your choice and submit a 3-5 page paper on how you feel they are impacting global governance. The influence you present may be negative or positive.

Please make sure that you paper includes the background of the NGO you have selected and clear examples of their influence.

You should include your own analysis and evaluation of their activity and reflect on how you see the NGO’s impact to the global landscape.

Your paper should have a separate cover page and a list of 3 outside references. Please double-space your paper, present in Word, and make sure that it’s in a minimum of 12 inch font.

The information in this week’s lesson has identified that a key part of a cosmopolitan social democracy is the idea that economic liberalization and global market integration hasn’t always yielded equitable results as seen when comparing poverty and luxury levels for a country. An example of this was provided in the facts about China and how ‘not playing by the rules’ has changed the standard of living in that country.

This assignment requires you to explore this concept further by selecting any country (excluding China or India) and analyzing and evaluating the concept of growth and poverty levels as a consequence of trade and international capital flows.

Your paper should be a minimum of 5-7 pages, double-spaced, and submitted in the APA format.

Your paper will be graded for the depth and scope of your analysis and evaluation of the information you have presented for your country. You may present any personal perceptions or judgments about the impact of trade liberalization for your selected country without any loss of points toward your final grade.

The goal of this paper is to expand your knowledge about how we may attempt to balance a cosmopolitan social democracy with managed global trade.

You only need to read from the beginning of the essay through page 126! If you enjoy the article you’re welcome to continue of course. But the questions will only pertain to the first 7 pages.
