Multilateral Exchange Facilities And Organized Trading Facilities

Sociological three paradigms, Symbolic Interactionism, Social conflict, and Structural functionalism are all evident in everyday life. These three theories are associated with the study of societies. Each of these three theories were shown in the movie, Trading Places, a american comedy made in 1983 that illustrates the advantages of different social classes by making a banker and a homeless person trade places. Before I start to analyse the movie to each theory, I will first start by explaining each theory for a definition and to have a better understanding.

· What happens when there is a surplus of imports brought into the U.S.? Cite a specific example of a product with an import surplus, and the impact that has on the U.S. businesses and consumers involved. When there is a surplus of imports brought into the U.S. it means that the price of the product(s) will drop. U.S. companies that are competing with the Chinese made products will suffer from price drops of the goods. With consumers it will benefits the consumer with the lower price on goods.

This was known as the triangular trade, because of the shape of the route from each of the three points to stop and trade being shaped just like a triangle. It linked Europe, Africa, and the Americas. It was a very important piece of society in the 15th century. There were benefits to this trade, but mostly to the businesses and merchants.

FTF (Fair Trade Federation) is an organization that strengthens and promotes North American organizations fully committed to fair trade. This federation started at the late 1970s when alternative individual trade organizations began to hold conferences for groups working in fair trade.

Trade, along with the previous two origin stories examined, is a difficult practice to pinpoint in an exact location and time. Evidence for trade does occur sometime before the introduction of writing, however, for the purpose of this paper, the trade being examined here is what scholars call “organized trade.” Early evidence for “organized trade” is seen in the late Neolithic period to the Early Bronze age in Mesopotamia, specifically in the Ubaid to early Uruk periods. While the text portrays the invention of writing and cuneiform texts as a means for Enmerkar to communicate with the Lord of Aratta, the archaeological record tells a different story. Clay documents found at the site of Uruk and surrounding areas during the 3000’s B.C. show

participants in this conference created three organizations to help regulate the international economy. The first is the International Monetary Fund (IMF) which was established with the idea of regulating monetary policy. One of the benchmarks of the IMF is the stabilization of exchange rates and the loaning of money to help stabilize countries with balance of payments deficits. The second organization established was the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) whose main focus was on a liberal trading order.

If goods processed and sold in the country than tariffs only on parts imported. Foreign Trade Zones were created in the United States to provide special customs procedures to U.S. plants engaged in international trade-related activities.

The World Trade Organization (or “WTO”) is a multi-national cooperative organization that provides a forum in which to discuss international trade. Member-nations agree to abide by rules decided through the WTO, and in return are allowed to vote on changes to those rules,

In this I am going to assess the methods to increase trade between countries and the methods to restrict trade between countries. When asses the methods of encouraging and restricting trade I will talk about the purpose for the methods of promoting and restricting international trade, identify how and why they might be used and I will decide how useful each method is giving appropriate reasons for it. International trade is the exchange of goods and services between countries.
