The international political economy can be defined as having three different ideologies, Liberalism, Mercantilism, and Marxism. I personally believe the economic liberalism ideology is superior to the others due to its success. In order to understand why economic liberalism is the most convincing ideology of the international political economy we must look not only at the core principles of said ideologies but towards the history of the international political economy and the flaws and shortcomings of them.

I remember when my mom would get me ready for bed putting pillows and covers in my bed, but most importantly right before she went to work she would read me a bed time story. “Donde viven los Monstruos” by Maurice Sendak was one of the books my mom read to me she would put a lot of excitement in order for me to get happy of what was going on in the book but also so I could knockout in bed. Both of my parents where hard working people they worked day and night earning minimum wage they decided it was time for them to come with a game plan during the day time my mom would teach me how to multiply at the age of 5 and at night my dad would be teaching me how to read and write. Best believe that I hated this plan reason being because now there wouldn’t be no more bed time story which it was sad since I had to read by myself which is boring for me unless their books about war. When I talked to my parents I told them, “why do I have to read, write and learn to multiply I thought life was all about Nintendo”.

However it is the consumer who will inevitably decide the fate of a company, so a firm would do well to conduct its marketing activities as best it can with the consumer central and maintain a close and watchful eye on the dynamic nature of the macroenviroment and microenviroment.
